Duration: 1 hour

Clean Agent Gaseous Fire Suppression Systems have been used for decades to protect high value critical assets such as data centres, control rooms, telecoms sites, medical facilities, cultural and heritage sites, art storage vaults and countless other applications.

This presentation will cover how the Johnson Controls SAPPHIRE PLUS fire suppression system – which uses 3M™ Novec™ 1230 fire suppression fluid – can help to reduce the container footprint requirement, significantly increase the distance that the containers can be located from the protected area and be designed to protect multiple hazards through selector valve systems.

We will also introduce how our latest system, SAPPHIRE COMPACT, can be used to compliment total flooding suppression systems by offering LPS1666 approved ‘in-cabinet’ fire protection.

Learning outcomes:
Attendees of this presentation will learn how the Johnson Controls SAPPHIRE range of fire suppression systems can reduce footprint requirements, can cover multiple areas over longer distances than have previously been possible, and will also recap on what makes the 3M™ Novec™ 1230 fluid used in our SAPPHIRE fire suppression systems, a leading halocarbon clean agent, thanks to its unrivalled environmentally sustainable properties..
