The Fluorine-Free Solution for Fire Safety

In marine environments, fire suppression systems must be powerful and adaptable, as fires can occur from various hazards like fuel tanks, electrical malfunctions, overheated engines, and even cargo. Ensuring a quick and effective response to these fires is crucial to safeguard lives and prevent damage to ships.

Reliable, Safe, Innovative Solutions

We prioritize safety with our advanced, eco-friendly marine fire protection systems. Our Encapsulator Technology not only meets NFPA safety standards but also ensures that our approach to fire suppression minimizes environmental impact, providing a safer, cleaner choice for marine applications.

F-500 Encapsulator Agent

An advanced extinguishing agent that addresses the unique challenges in marine settings. F-500 EA effectively combats fires involving flammable liquids and vapors, electrical hazards, and ordinary combustibles by isolating and suppressing the heat and fuel source. It reduces the toxins and carcinogens released in smoke and soot, enhancing safety for crew members and mitigating environmental impact.

Our fluorine-free, biodegradable, and non-corrosive Encapsulator Technology handles the significant fire hazards present in today’s marine settings, ensuring safety and sustainability.

Mitigating Fire Hazards at the Source

Marine fire suppression encompasses everything from large commercial ships to smaller recreational boats. Fire hazards are prevalent in these environments, including flammable liquids in engine compartments and combustible materials spread across confined spaces. F-500 Encapsulator Agent addresses these risks effectively, encapsulating fuel, absorbing heat, and preventing the spread of flames. This rapid response is crucial to ensure safety and minimize damage.

Our Commitment to You

Ensure safety with reliable
marine fire systems

For over 20 years, our dedication to safety and customer service has been evident in every solution we offer. We ensure that each extinguishing agent and system not only meets but exceeds NFPA safety standards. Our F-500 EA goes beyond traditional fire sprinkler systems, demonstrating exceptional performance across various fire classes and mitigating commercial fires on three distinct levels.

Flammability

F-500 EA encapsulates the fuel source and quickly absorbs the heat from high-temperature flames. This rapid response helps stop thermal runaway and provides strong resistance against re-ignition, making it a crucial asset in environments where flammable liquids and gases are present.

Explosivity

In critical environments like energy storage systems, F-500 EA interrupts the production of explosive gases during fires, significantly reducing the likelihood of an explosion. This capability is crucial for safeguarding property and lives on commercial ships and smaller boats.

Toxicity

Encapsulator Technology reduces the concentration of toxic gases released during fires, enhancing safety for vessel occupants and first responders. By reducing these harmful emissions, we ensure safer conditions for firefighting.
