SEVO SYSTEMS announces the availability
of their "One for One" halon retrofit fire
suppression system, utilizing 3M Novec
1230 Fire Protection Fluid, as a
replacement for halon and HFCs in fire
suppression systems. The SEVO 1230
"One for One" retrofit fire suppression
system simplifies the conversion from
halon 1301 to Novec 1230 fluid. Generally
the existing halon 1301 piping network
can be utilized and the existing halon
1301 cylinder will be replaced with a SEVO
1230 cylinder containing Novec 1230 fluid
pressurized to 500 psig along with
replacement of existing nozzles. The SEVO
1230 "One for One" retrofit system
minimizes the space required because the
same number of cylinders is required. This
reduces the overall installation cost for
both labor and hardware. The system is
approved by Factory Mutual, a Division of
FM Global, and a major industrial insurer.
The SEVO 1230 "One for One" retrofit
system is the only one of its kind available
using Novec 1230 fluid.
SEVO Systems was formed in 2001 and
worked to develop and commercialize
systems using a revolutionary new
technology invented and marketed by 3M
that represented a major breakthrough in
halon replacement technology �
combining high extinguishing efficiency
with excellent environmental, health and
safety properties. With highest life safety
margin of any viable chemical clean agent,
zero ozone depletion potential, 5-day
atmospheric lifetime and a global warming
potential of one, Novec 1230 fluid offers
the market a long-term, sustainable
alternative to halon and HFCs. SEVO
worked hand-in-hand with 3M during the
early development period following its
discovery. SEVO represents a "safe
environmental choice" and was the first
OEM partner of 3M to commercialize a UL
approved fire suppression system using
Novec 1230 fluid.
Novec 1230 fluid is designed to balance
the need for extinguishing performance,
human safety and minimal environmental
impact. Novec 1230 fluid is not included in
the basket of greenhouse gasses identified
by the Kyoto Protocol. The production of
halon has been phased out in developed
countries and will continue to be phased
out in developing countries based upon
the Montreal Protocol. With a zero ozone-
depletion potential, an atmospheric
lifetime of just five days (compared to 65
years for halon 1301) and a global
warming potential of one (compared to
approximately 3500 for HFC-227ea or
HFC-25), 3M stands behind Novec 1230
fluid by offering an industry-leading
20-year warranty, the 3M Blue SkySM
Warranty. For complete terms and
conditions or to register your system for
the Blue Sky Warranty, log onto
