Flammable Liquid Storerooms: Fire protection without Halon 1301
Flammable Liquid Storerooms (FLSRs) Pose a significant loss prevention challenge. The fire protection engineer must design the fire protection system for a very diverse fuel population. Furthermore, Sor military applications, provision must De made for In ige temperanture fluctuations in the operating environment and very strict suppression system space and weight requirements. Halon 1301 is a very, effective fire suppression agent used extensively in the military and commercial sectors for over. two decades. There are more than 2200 shipboard Halon 1301 fire suppression systems. However production of stratospheric ozone depleting halon has been banned but the Montreal Protocol and the U.S. Clean Air Act amendments since December 31, 1993.
