PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

A comparison of Halon 1211 and Halotron™ I chemical properties is presented on the chart below. As you will see, the very low Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of Halotron™ I is less than one-tenth of the EPA's maximum acceptable level. Halotron™ I also meets Global Warming Potential (GWP) and toxicity standards.
Halotron™ I EXTINGUISHING MECHANISM AND FEATURES

Halotron™ I is a clean fire extinguishing agent that is discharged as a precisely dispersed rapidly evaporating (i.e. volatile) liquid.

The primary extinguishing mechanism of Halotron™ I is the absorption and removal of heat from the combustion size.

To a much lesser extent, the extinguishing mechanism is the displacement of oxygen from the combustion zone.
STATISTICAL DATA

ATMOSPHERIC LIFETIME

  • 3.5 to 11 years

GLOBAL WARMING POTENTIAL (GWP)

  • Halotron™ I has a low GWP in the range between 0.04-0.24 (CFC-11=1.0)

OZONE DEPLETION POTENTIAL (ODP)

  • Halotron™ I has an extremely low ODP of no more than 0.014 (CFC 11=1.0). Halon 1211 has an ODP that is greater than 4.0. The ODP of Halotron™ I is more than twelve times lower than the EPA maximum permissible ODP of 0.20.
