Matrix have been involved in the design and construction of specialist computer environments for a number of years. One of the key issues within these significantly important areas is fire detection and suppression.

FM-200 Gas Suppression systems are suitable for virtually all total-flooding applications, although they are most commonly used to protect vital company assets.

However, as it does not remove significant quantities of oxygen or obstruct vision, FM-200 is also ideal for use in occupied rooms or enclosed compartments, and is quickly cleared when ventilated.

Using an FM-200 total-flooding system fires are extinguished rapidly, typically in less than 10 seconds.

In fact, FM-200 is the appropriate choice in applications where liquid extinguishants, water-based or dry chemical products can cause costly damage or result in considerable and expensive downtime.

Because of its zero conductivity FM-200 is appropriate for electrical, communications and data processing equipment and plant or machinery.
