Comparison Novec1230 Vs FM 200 Vs CO2

The document compares the properties of three fire suppression gases: FM 200, Novec 1230, and CO2. All three must be located near or within the protected space. FM 200 and Novec 1230 require no ventilation while CO2 requires ventilation if used in a manned area. FM 200 operates at 25-42 bar, Novec 1230 at 42 bar, and CO2 at 150-200 bar. All three have zero ozone depletion and require hydrotesting every 5 years with refilling if gas loss exceeds 10%.
