Its important to note that the complex geometry of engine rooms, communications centers and other shipboard locations makes it difficult to calculate their net volume accurately; such calculations are used to determine an effective (but safe) agent design concentration. If a significant portion of a room is filled with piping, conduits, machinery and other obstructions, agent concentration could quickly exceed its NOAEL (No Observable Adverse Effects Level), if discharged at a rate appropriate for its empty volume. With Novec 1230 fluid, you get the stopping power you need to extinguish fires in obstructed spaces without putting people at risk.*
*Industry standards require egress from a protected enclosure prior to system discharge
