Self Contained FM200 Fire Suppression System
The Flarenix Self-Contained FM-200 Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing System is a standalone, pre-engineered clean agent fire suppression system designed for total flooding protection in enclosed areas. This clean agent fire suppression system is fully self-contained, integrating the FM200 (HFC-227ea) agent storage cylinder, discharge valve, and nozzle within a compact cabinet unit.
Unlike traditional multi-cylinder fire protection systems that require extensive piping and dedicated agent storage rooms, this system offers a cost-effective, plug-and-protect solution, ideal for applications requiring quick deployment, minimal structural modifications, and a space-saving design.
With compliance to NFPA 2001, UL, FM, and ISO 14520 standards, this FM200 fire suppression system ensures reliable, fast, and effective fire safety, capable of suppressing the fire while minimizing operational downtime.
Key Features
Standalone, Self-Contained Cabinet Design: Eliminates the need for additional piping or external agent storage, reducing installation time and cost.
Rapid Fire Suppression: Extinguishes the fire in ≤10 seconds, effectively suppressing Class A, B, and electrical fires before they spread.
Optimized for Compact Spaces: The vertical cabinet design minimizes footprint, making it ideal for retrofit applications and space-constrained environments.
Safe for Occupied Areas: FM200 is electrically non-conductive and non-toxic at standard design concentrations (≤9% by volume, per NFPA 2001). It does not displace oxygen, ensuring personnel safety.
Zero Residue, No Clean-Up: Unlike water-based suppression, FM-200 Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems leave no residue, making them suitable for sensitive electronics, high-value assets, and critical infrastructure.
Environmentally friendly: FM200 has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP = 0) and is EPA SNAP-approved as an alternative to Halon-based systems.
Ease of Inspection & Maintenance: Features a front-access pressure gauge and easy service access for routine checks, ensuring long-term reliability.

Application
The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 Fire Suppression System is designed for fire protection in locations where traditional piped FM200 systems are impractical due to space constraints, installation challenges, or the need for rapid deployment. By eliminating external piping and dedicated agent storage rooms, it provides a compact, independent, and highly effective fire suppression solution.
Retrofitting in Existing Facilities
Many older buildings and mission-critical facilities lack the space or structural flexibility for a piped FM200 system, making retrofits costly and disruptive. The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 System integrates the agent cylinder and discharge nozzle in a single cabinet, eliminating the need for complex installations. With compact sizes ranging from 940 × 450 × 1400 mm (37″ × 18″ × 55″) to 1040 × 480 × 2100 mm (41″ × 19″ × 83″), it is ideal for edge data centers, renovated office buildings, and historical sites where modifications are restricted.
Small & Isolated Fire Protection Zones
Critical components such as electrical cabinets, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and industrial control panels require localized fire suppression, but traditional FM200 systems often leave these areas unprotected. The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 System provides fast suppression within 10 seconds in spaces ranging from 56 m³ (1,978 ft³) to 144 m³ (5,085 ft³) per unit. It ensures reliable, targeted fire protection without affecting the entire facility, making it ideal for switchgear enclosures, PLC cabinets, and confined industrial control rooms.
Rapid Deployment & Temporary Installations
Construction sites, modular data centers, and leased facilities require flexible, relocatable fire suppression that traditional FM200 systems cannot provide. The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 System requires no external connections, making it plug-and-protect for quick deployment and easy repositioning. It is particularly suited for mobile telecom hubs, emergency response stations, and short-term industrial setups where fire risks change frequently.
Areas with Strict Space Constraints
High-density facilities such as server rooms, telecom switch centers, and medical labs often lack the space for large suppression system components. Traditional FM200 systems require dedicated agent storage rooms and extensive piping, which may not be feasible. The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 System offers a small footprint and vertical cabinet design, allowing it to fit into tight spaces without obstructing access or facility operations. This makes it an ideal choice for compact IT hubs, network relay stations, and high-value medical imaging equipment rooms.
Custom Solutions
The Flarenix Self-Contained FM200 System eliminates complex piping and storage requirements, provides localized suppression, and offers rapid deployment with minimal maintenance.
