Fireboy MA2 Automatic Discharge Clean Agent Extinguishing Systems
This item will require additional time to ship
Fireboy MA2 Clean Agent Extinguishing Systems offer heat triggered automatic discharge for normally unoccupied spaces such as engine rooms, with optional manual discharge activation from the helm. MA2 systems use HFC-227ea agent (Heptafluoropropane) approved for use worldwide including Europe.
Each system features a heat-activated trigger that automatically discharges the clean agent HFC-227ea (Heptafluoropropane) at 175-degrees F (79-degrees C). This clean agent does not damage engines and associated components, unlike water would. These systems release the extinguishing agent and address the problem much faster than any possible crew response, resulting in a faster fire-out time and less damage.
NOTE: All items ship direct from the manufacturer and have a 5-7 day lead time.
These systems monitor engine rooms 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. MA2 systems are designed to flood the engine compartment with extinguishing agents in 10 seconds or less, completely smothering the fire before it gets out of control. Each system features a 3 year manufacturer's limited warranty.
