Application
HFC-227ea (CF

CHFCF
3
), the extinguishing agent, used in all Sea-Fire “FG” and “FD”
series fire extinguishers, is a suitable EPA accepted alternate replacement for Halon.
HFC-227ea is an electrically nonconductive and residue free extinguishing agent that
requires no cleanup.
These features and the versatility of design make the “FG” and “FD” series fire
extinguisher models ideal for a broad range of applications. These applications would
include marine, commercial and industrial use where electrical or flammable liquids
are the likely source of fire.
Sea-Fire “FG” and “FD” series have passed a rigid testing program and carry a FM
Approvals and United States Coast Guard (USCG) approval for fire suppression
applications in marine pleasure craft, un-inspected vessels, and Subchapter “T”
inspected vessels, subject to the approval of the local Officer in Charge, Marine
Inspection (OCMI). This would include many applications such as
unoccupied
engine
and generator rooms, electrical compartments, paint and flammable storage lockers.
Limitations
Sea-Fire “FG” and “FD” model series HFC-227ea automatic fire extinguishers are
designed and tested to extinguish Class B (flammable liquid) in enclosed compartments
only.
