APPLICATION
FM-200
®
(CF3CHFCF3), the extinguishing agent, used in all Sea-Fire “FT’’ series fire extin-
guishers, is a suitable EPA accepted alternate replacement for Halon. FM-200
®
is electrically
nonconductive and residue free extinguishing agent that requires no cleanup.
These features and the versatility of design make the “FT’’ series fire extinguisher ideal for a
broad range of applications. The systems are ideal for small volumes, 150 cubic feet or less,
that are difficult to access. These applications would include marine, recreational vehicles,
commercial and industrial use where flammable liquids are likely source of fire.
Application Examples:
• Engine Compartments (maximum 150 cubic feet)
• Bow Thrusters
• Small Generator Set Enclosures
• Consoles
• Electrical Enclosures
• Flammable Liquid Storage Areas
• Pump Enclosures
• Alternative Fuel Storage Areas
Sea-Fire “FT” extinguishers are designed to induce a minimum atmospheric concentration of
10.0% within the protected compartment.* The specification table in this manual lists the
minimum and maximum approved compartment volume (size) allowable for each model.
Volume can be determined by multiplying the compartment’s length x width x height which
equals the volume in cubic feet or meters (LxWxH=V).
Exception: If the boat manufacturer has placed a permanently affixed label in the compart-
ment specifying the gross volume less the volume of permanently installed tankage, then
this volume may be used to determine the proper size extinguisher. Check specification table
for proper application before making installation.
