Fluoro-K

Kidde Fire Systems’ Fluoro-K™ based clean agent fire

suppression systems are safe, competitive, and cost-

effective fire suppression solutions for protecting assets

in commercial, light, and heavy industrial applications.

The Fluoro-K agent itself is colorless, with low odor and

ness disruption after a discharge. From an environmental

standpoint, Fluoro-K has zero ozone depletion potential,

and an atmospheric lifetime of less than five days. The
