Fire Police introduce Fire-fighting system Novec 1230

At the workshop, representatives of 3M and Viking have introduced the material of 3M Novec 1230, including its characteristics and applicability to local delegates.

Accordingly,  3M Novec 1230 is a new chemical fire extinguisher that has preeminent chemical features, helping quickly put out fire. It is fit for various working places, including  computer rooms, database centers, telecommunications centers, medical facilities, control rooms, museums, libraries, stores, military areas, oil and gas sites.

It does not affect the ozone layer and has low GWP and toxicity, which is very safe to keep it along with valuable goods. Novec 1230 works by absorbing the heat of the fire to extinguish it and then automatically vaporize when being discharged into environment.

Besides, it does not reduce the firing room's temperature rapidly so this does not lead to a thermal shock or loses oxygen concentration.

Many questions raised during the workshop on the Novec 1230 fire extinguisher and its firefighting system. Experts also conducted firefighting tests using Novec 1230.

After the workshop, all equipment and fire extinguishers with Novec 1230 have been granted to the University of Fire Prevention and Fighting for research and teaching.
