There are a lot of choices on the market today for clean agent systems, but not all of them meet the high standards expected by fire industry professionals and demanded by Fike. There have been recent instances with another company using contaminated HFC-227ea and HFC-125 product in total flood clean agent applications.

In its 65-year history, Fike has never compromised safety and reliability, and has built a reputation for being the trusted source for gaseous clean agent systems.

Fike announces the release of a new valve technology that will become the standard on Fike
clean agent fire suppression systems using DuPont FM-200 and FE-25. The new Impulse valve is different than previous Fike valves in that it uses an electrically actuated mechanism instead of a gas cartridge actuator (GCA) to open a rupture disc, enabling the quick and efficient discharge of agent. The Impulse valve is Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed and FM Global approved for use in fire suppression, with European approvals pending. The valve is patent pending in the US and internationally.
