The HFC-227ea extinguishing agent reduces the heat of the fire and thus stops the combustion reaction. It is very efficient yet unaggressive at the same time. The extinguishing agent is stored as a liquid and transforms into a gas only when it exits from the extinguishing nozzles. It therefore extinguishes, as a rule, even concealed fire sources instantaneously. The rapid extinguishing of a fire already in the nascent phase minimizes the fire damage and prevents long downtimes or business interruptions.
Furthermore, – unlike the case of water, foam or powder – secondary damage caused by the extinguishing agent itself is practically impossible. HFC-227ea is neither corrosive nor electrically conductive, leaves no residue and can easily be removed from the space concerned through ventilation. HFC-227ea is, besides inert gases, the preferred extinguishing agent for electronic and electrical risks.
HFC-227ea fire extinguishing systems already achieve their extinguishing effect at a substantially lower design concentration than that of inert gas extinguishing systems. This means that in the event of fire, less extinguishing agent must be introduced, which in turn makes it possible to implement shorter flooding periods. In addition, the pressure relief valve can be made significantly smaller, in most cases.
