FM-200: is a colorless, non-toxic gas (clean agent) perfectly suited to protect high value areas that may be normally occupied, in locations where clean-up of other agents is problematic, when storage space for a fire suppression agent is restricted, or when an electrically non-conductive agent is required.
CO2: is a colorless, odorless, and electrically non-conductive gas that leaves no residue behind. This means any sensitive equipment that is in the protected space is not damaged by the CO2, which reduces downtime and costs.
How to use FM/CO2 Calculator 2015 v2:
1. Choose which gas system you want FM200 or CO2
2. Insert the volume of the room or the dimensions (width - length - height)
3. Choose the class of the hazard (A - B - C - D)
4. Select the design concentration
5. Select the minimum anticipated temperature

This is a very helpful resource for fire protection engineers and MEP consultants. The availability of FM200 and CO₂ calculator software streamlines the complex process of designing clean agent suppression systems, especially in data centers, server rooms, and critical facilities where precision is key. Accurate agent quantity estimation and nozzle placement are crucial for compliance with NFPA standards and ensuring occupant safety. Tools like this not only improve design accuracy but also save time during the planning and documentation phases. It would be great to see additional tutorials or case studies showcasing its real-world application. Thanks for sharing such a practical tool!
