Fireboy- Xintex, LTD HFC-227ea, CG2, MA2 FE-241 manual

Inspect manual discharge cable annually when inspecting the fire extinguisher.

1.Do not remove the pull pin on the T-handle when disconnecting the manual discharge cable from the fire extinguisher manifold.

2.Remove the wire retaining clip securing the cable located at the slot in the top of the manifold.

3.Carefully push the cable from the backside of the manifold towards the actuator far enough to allow the flexible center strand to bend.

4.Remove the “S” hook from the black manual actuator lever.

5.Once the “S” hook is free of the lever, pull the cable back and away from the manifold.

To reconnect the manual discharge cable to the cylinder, refer to “Connecting Cable to Cylinder” in this manual.

Maintaining the Indicator Lamp Circuit

Should the indicator lamp fail to come ON when the ignition key is ON

1.Check the pressure gauge and actuator to see if the system has discharged.

2.Check fuse.

3.Using a continuity tester, check the electrical pressure switch on the system bottle itself:

•Pull the connectors off the spade terminals and place the probes of the continuity tester directly on the spade connectors

•A closed circuit indicates a functioning pressure switch

4.Check the continuity of the remaining wiring circuit.

5.The indicator lamp is an LED (light emitting diode) and cannot be tested with a continuity tester. A simple method to test LED’s is to remove the lamp and touch the Red wire to the + terminal and the black wire to the – terminal of an ordinary 9 volt battery.

6.Should the continuity of the pressure switch indicate an open circuit, the system will have to be returned to the factory for either replacement or repair, depending upon the model involved.

Additional Equipment

Coast Guard Regulation 162.029 requires an indicator lamp be installed at each helm station from which the vessel may be operated. These additional escutcheon plates and indicator lamp kits are available factory direct or through your dealer. Outside the U.S.A. and Canada, see your dealer.

An Automatic Discharge Alarm provides both an audible and visual alarm when the system discharges. Includes a 2” round instrument with a simple three (3) wire hookup.

HFC-227ea, MA2 FE-241, CG2 specifications

Fireboy Xintex, LTD HFC-227ea, CG2, MA2 FE-241 is an advanced fire suppression agent that stands out in its effectiveness and versatility. This halocarbon compound, also known as heptafluoropropane, has become a preferred choice for fire protection systems worldwide due to its unique chemistry and performance characteristics.

One of the main features of HFC-227ea is its ability to suppress flames without leaving behind damaging residues. This property makes it particularly suitable for use in sensitive environments like data centers, server rooms, and heritage sites where traditional water-based extinguishing systems could cause significant collateral damage. HFC-227ea operates effectively through a combination of cooling and chemical interruption of the combustion process.

The technology behind HFC-227ea is primarily rooted in its physical and chemical properties. It is a clean agent, meaning it does not conduct electricity, and it has a low boiling point, allowing it to vaporize quickly and fill a room efficiently. Its rapid vaporization facilitates swift deployment during a fire event, ensuring prompt control and suppression of flames. Moreover, this agent is recognized for its minimal impact on the environment, with a low ozone depletion potential and a global warming potential that is considerably lower than that of many other halon alternatives.

In terms of characteristics, the HFC-227ea system is designed to operate alongside various detection and control technologies. Fireboy Xintex utilizes advanced fire detection systems that can identify smoke and heat sources rapidly, enabling quick activation of the suppression system. This integration enhances overall fire safety and responsiveness.

Additionally, the system's modular design allows for easy scalability and customization according to the specific needs of different environments. Whether in maritime applications, industrial plants, or commercial infrastructures, the flexibility and adaptability of HFC-227ea make it a prominent choice in the fire suppression landscape.

In conclusion, Fireboy Xintex, LTD HFC-227ea, CG2, MA2 FE-241 represents a cutting-edge solution in the field of fire protection. With its clean, efficient, and environmentally conscious characteristics, it not only meets the demands of modern fire safety but does so in a way that protects valuable assets and minimizes risk.
