3M™ Novec™ 1230 is stored in liquid form and discharged into the protected space as a gas. It has zero ozone depletion potential, global warming potential of one and an atmospheric lifetime of only five days.
Chubb’s 3M™ Novec™ 1230 fire protection fluid puts fire out quickly before any serious damage can be caused. It does this by reaching extinguishing concentrations in ten seconds or less.
It is effective on a wide range of fires and is an electrically non-conductive and non-corrosive gas. It does not leave any residue behind and removes the need for costly clean-up operations due to the extinguishant.
