Zero Residue
Why Clean Agent Extinguishers?
Standard ABC dry chemical extinguishers leave a corrosive powder residue that can permanently damage electronics, computers, and sensitive equipment. Clean agent extinguishers use gases that evaporate completely, leaving nothing behind.
Data Centers & Server Rooms
Protect critical IT infrastructure without damaging servers or causing data loss.
Electrical Control Rooms
Safe for electrical fires without risk of shock or residue on sensitive equipment.
Telecommunications Facilities
Protect network operations centers and switching equipment.
Museums & Archives
Protect irreplaceable artifacts and documents from fire and suppression damage.
ABC Powder Damages Equipment
Discharging a dry chemical extinguisher in a server room can cause more damage than the fire itself. The corrosive powder infiltrates electronics, causing permanent shorts and failures. Cleanup costs often exceed equipment replacement.
Non-conductive - safe for electrical fires
No residue - equipment stays clean
No thermal shock to electronics
Fast extinguishing action
Environmentally acceptable alternatives
Annual inspection and certification
Clean Agent Types We Supply & Service
Different environments require different solutions. We help you select the right clean agent for your specific needs.
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
High-pressure gas that displaces oxygen and cools. Leaves zero residue. Best for electrical fires and Class B flammables.
Advantages
No residue
Non-conductive
Effective on electrical
Considerations
Requires larger units
Can cause frostbite
Oxygen displacement risk in enclosed spaces
Halotron I
Halon replacement with similar properties. Vaporizes completely, leaving no residue. Safe for occupied spaces.
Advantages
Clean discharge
Safe for electronics
Ozone-safe replacement
Considerations
Higher cost than CO2
Limited discharge time
FE-36 (HFC-236fa)
Clean agent suitable for occupied areas. Excellent for data centers, museums, and sensitive environments.
Advantages
Safe for occupied spaces
No thermal shock
EPA approved
Considerations
Premium pricing
GWP considerations

CO2 Extinguishers - The Industry Standard
Carbon dioxide extinguishers remain the most cost-effective solution for electrical and computer equipment protection. They're available in multiple sizes from 5 lb to 100 lb wheeled units.
5 lb - Small server closets and workstations
10 lb - Standard data center coverage
15 lb - Large electrical rooms
20 lb - Industrial control areas
50-100 lb wheeled - Major data facilities
CO2 Safety & Maintenance
CO2 extinguishers require specific handling and maintenance due to their high-pressure storage. Our licensed technicians ensure safe operation.
5-Year Hydrostatic Testing
CO2 cylinders require DOT hydrostatic testing every 5 years due to their 850+ PSI operating pressure.
Annual Inspection
Weight verification to ensure proper CO2 charge. Cylinders lose gas over time and must be recharged when below weight.
Discharge Horn Warning
CO2 discharge creates extreme cold. Never touch the horn during or immediately after use. Training recommended.
Complete Protection
Need Total Room Protection?
While portable clean agent extinguishers provide first-response capability, server rooms and data centers often require total flooding systems for comprehensive protection. We install and service:
FM-200 Systems
Fast-acting total flood suppression for enclosed spaces.
Novec 1230
Environmentally-friendly clean agent with zero ODP.
CO2 Total Flood
High-pressure CO2 systems for unoccupied spaces.
Stay Compliant. Stay Safe.
