Kidde FM-200 ECS SeriesIf you’re building a new vessel or retro? tting a halon system on an existing one, Kidde offers its FM-200 Fire Suppression System. First and foremost, the company touts its system solution as a bene? t to crew and responders, as the FM-200 clean agent works by interrupting the ? re on a molecular level, not by taking oxygen from the protected space, making it a preferred ? re sup-pression agent for protection of shipboard spaces where crew or other occupants may be present.Kidde FM-200 Systems are approved for use in marine applications such as machinery spaces and ? ammable liquid storage areas by major regulatory agencies such as UL, FM, LPC, USCG, ABS, DNV, MCA, TC and AMSA.In addition, the FM-200 offers advantages in two key areas that are always a concern onboard any commercial vessel: size and weight. Kidde FM-200 Systems take up less space than other types of ? re suppression systems, leaving more room for revenue-generating cargo or passengers. Also, the Kidde FM-200 Systems weighs less than either carbon dioxide or water mist systems. Kidde FM-200 ECS Series engineered ? re suppression systems are used to suppress ? res in speci? c hazards or equipment where an electrically non-conductive agent is required, where agent cleanup creates a problem, where extinguishing capability with a low weight is desired and where the hazard is normally occupied. Kidde FM-200 systems are intended to protect spaces containing the following hazards:• Class A - surface type ? res–wood or othercellulose type material• Class B - ? ammable liquids• Class C - energized electrical equipmentwww.kiddemarine.comHalyard Expands Insulation FFS: Fire Fighting Systems Enhanced Fire Protection Fire Fighting Systems (FFS), located in Norway Product Range Guide from ABSand in Singapore, is a designer, maker and supplier Halyard extended its of complete systems for external ? re ? ghting in the range of noise insula- ABS recently released the ABS Guide for Enhanced marine market. tion products with the Fire Protection Arrangements.
