FK-5-1-12 (chemical name for NOVECTM 1230) is a colourless liquid extinguishing agent with a delicate odour. Being anhydrous, it does not conduct electricity and does not cause corrosion. Contrary to carbon dioxide, it does not cause a thermal shock to the facilities being extinguished. It evaporates after use, leaving no residues. Is totally safe for people and the environment.
It is appropriate for extinguishing group A, B and C fires, including live electrical equipment.
During the extinguishing, the FK-5-1-12 is released as gas. The extinguishing process involves the removal of thermal energy from the flames which totally stops the combustion and prevents further ignition.
FK-5-1-12 design concentration: 4,5-5,9 %.
