Sperosens & Instruments reported that they are successfully using the NOVEC 1230 fire protection fluid at various relevant installations with success. The NOVEC 1230 fire protection fluid is a low global warming Halon replacement for use as a gaseous fire suppression agent, says Claassen the Project Manager. The NOVEC 1230 is the sustainable choice for clean fire protection where water from a fire sprinkler would damage expensive equipment or where water-based fire protection is impractical.
