 EFFICIENT +
FAST AND SMOOTH
Lost data, the breakdown of machines and equip-
ment, on which enterprise-critical business processes
are proceeded, or a total breakdown of operations –
those are risks, which represent a concrete existential
threat for every company. Companies with unique
and high-value technical equipment and central IT
systems are dependent on the high availability of
these critical operating resources. This is inevitably
leading to growing expectations concerning fire
protection.
Here fire extinguishing systems are in demand,
which detect a developing fire in its initial stage
and extinguish it in a exceptionally fast and protec-
tive manner so that even sensitive components are
not damaged e. g. by residues of extinguishing
agent. This is why Minimax has developed the
MX 200 fire extinguishing system with the fire
extinguishing agent HFC-227ea. It is characterised
by its highly effective and fast extinguishing action
(< 10 seconds). The extinguishing agent itself is
toxicologically harmless; it extinguishes without
leaving any residue and gets along with a small
storage volume. The extinguishing agent acts both
physically and chemically.
Extinguishing agent approved throughout the
world
The fire extinguishing agent treated in the ISO 14520-9
under the designation HFC-227ea is widely used
throughout the world. Thanks to its environmental
properties and good price/performance ratio it has
become established in many countries as the extin-
11866-2_MX200_GB 3
guishing agent for manageable IT and electrical risks.
In Europe its use is regulated by the F-Gases Directive
(Regulation (EU) No. 842/2006 on certain fluorinated
greenhouse gases).
The MX 200 fire extinguishing system can be indivi-
dually adapted to suit nearly every area. Nozzle holes
and container fill volumes are the result of object-
specific design calculations and characterise a system
optimised down to the smallest detail. The charging
pressures of up to 50 bar mean that multi-zone
systems and longer pipeworks can be designed.
No separate space is needed for the supply of extin-
guishing agent, it can be located in the protected
area itself.
Mode of operation
When a starting fire is detected by one of the auto-
matic fire detectors or when a push button is acti-
vated, the fire detection control panel sets off a
fire alarm. After a object-related delay time the
pressurised extinguishing agent cylinders are opened
either electrically or pneumatically. The extinguishing
agent, still liquid at this point, flows to the extin-
guishing nozzles where it vaporises and rapidly and
effectively floods the room.
