System Operations
Sea-Fire units described in this manual are automatically actuated by a temperature
sensitive UL listed glass bulb tested in accordance with UL 199. These bulbs are
manufactured and tested to be activated at a minimum temperature.
FG 25 – 75 models: 200°F 93°C) when immersed in a liquid bath or
approximately 250°F (121°C) when tested using an air bath.
FG 100 - FD 1500 models: 175°F (79°C) when immersed in a liquid bath or
approximately 220°F (104°C) when tested using an air bath.
The actual activation temperature of the bulb in a fire scenario is influenced by
numerous factors including air velocity, rate of temperature rise, air flow, location, etc.
The discharge temperature ranges (approximate) are shown in the specification table,
pages 29 – 30, and on the label attached to each unit.
These systems have been tested to United States Coast Guard (USCG), UL 2166 and FM
5600 requirements for Automatic Extinguisher Unit Automatic Operation Fire Tests.

CAUTION:
IN CASE OF SUPPRESSION SYSTEM DISCHARGE, DO NOT RUSH TO OPEN THE
PROTECTED COMPARTMENT. THE PROTECTED SPACE MUST BE KEPT CLOSED FOR AT
LEAST 15 MINUTES TO ALLOW THE FIRE TO BE EXTINGUISHED AND SURFACES
COOLED SUFFICIENTLY TO PREVENT REFLASH. STOP BLOWERS, ENGINES,
GENERATORS, AND POWERED VENTILATORS AND SECURE HATCHES. HAVE A
PORTABLE EXTINGUISHER AVAILABLE AND USE CARE WHEN OPENING
COMPARTMENT.
CAUTION:
AVOID BREATHING FIRE RELATED FUMES OR VAPOR.
After an HFC-227ea discharge, one must observe all warnings before entering the
hazard area. Integrity must be maintained to prevent the migration of products of
decomposition to adjacent areas outside of the protected space.
Only trained personnel with Self Controlled Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) and protection
gear shall enter the space prior to ventilating for 15 minutes. When ventilating the
protected space of products of combustion, care should be taken to allow smoke,
decomposition products, etc., to clear the vessel, away from personnel, muster
stations, embarkation areas, etc. Upon arriving in port, qualified fire suppression
system maintenance personnel must perform post fire maintenance.
