Novec 1230 ® (Keton) - GAS EXTINGUISHING SYSTEMS
The extinguishing agent Novec 1230 (ISO-certification FK-5-1-12) is a colourless, almost odourless liquid which is contained in carbon, fluoride and oxygen molecules (chemical formula CF3CF2C(O)CF(CF3)2). Strictly speaking it is not a Halon but a fluorinated ketone (perfluorinated ethyl isopropyl ketone). The extinguishing effect of Novec 1230 in stationary fire extinguishing systems is due to a homogeneous inhibition (disruption of the combustion chain reaction). The molecule is not electrically conductive. With a global warming potential (CO2 equivalent) of 1, it has the lowest value of all currently approved chemical extinguishing agents and disintegrates within a few days under solar radiation.
