Volume can be determined by multiplying the compartment’s
length x width x height
which equals the volume in cubic feet or meters (LxWxH=V).

Extinguishing Systems
Models described in this manual are stock available in 25 ft³ (0.7 m³) intervals. Systems
are available in 1 ft³ (0.03 m³) intervals if desired. Exact calculations and/or
measurements of the protected space should be accomplished if ordering these
models. The Specification Table shows the area of protection range available for
ordering within each basic model. For simplicity, throughout this manual, only the
stock sizes will be noted.
“FG” and “FD” systems are designed for only one cylinder (single nozzle) to protect the
entire space. Using two cylinders to achieve combined coverage is not acceptable.
CAUTION:
NEVER INSTALL A UNIT WITH A VOLUME RATING LESS THEN THE GROSS VOLUME
OF THE COMPARTMENT TO BE PROTECTED. DO NOT DEDUCT FOR ENGINES,
REMOVABLE TANKS OR OTHER EQUIPMENT.
Exception: If the boat manufacturer has placed a permanently affixed label in the
engine compartment specifying the gross volume less the volume of permanently
installed tankage, then this volume may be used to determine the proper size
extinguisher. Check the specification table for proper application before making
installation.
Sea-Fire Marine offers all models compliant to applicable European Directives.
Systems will be shipped as requested. For orders requested compliant to CE directives,
a Declaration of Conformance (DOC) shall be included.
F-gas Regulation considerations:
HFC-227ea extinguishing agent is classified as an F-gas, a fluorinated greenhouse gas, in
accordance with European Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014. HFC-227ea has a Global
Warming Potential (GWP) of 3,220.
The equivalent tonne(s) of CO2 is calculated by multiplying the kgs of HFC-227ea in the
cylinder x 3.22. Refer to the specification tables in this manual for kgs of agent by
model size.
Systems shipped into the European Community will have this information on the
specification label.
Example: FD150 contains 2.9 kg HFC-227ea
2.9 kg = .0029 metric tonnes
CO2 equivalent = .0029 x 3,220 = 9.338 metric tonnes.
