(H) SPA Extreme 3M Novec 1230 3lb Mech. Fire System, SFI

Brand: SPA Design Racing Products

This Firesense Extreme fire suppression system from SPA Design / Protrust Solutions is SFI Certified (SFI Spec 17.2) and SCCA legal for all cars!

The FK-5-1-12 fire suppressing agent (commercially known as 3M™ Novec™ 1230) is the latest "green" replacement for ozone-depleting Halon. FK‑5‑1‑12 is ozone-friendly, non-corrosive (safe for electronics), alcohol-resistant (effective on methanol fires), and non-conductive (effective on Electric and Hybrid vehicles as well as Lithium battery fires). It is stored as a liquid under pressure that releases as a gas, which means zero cleanup afterwards. Unlike Halon (and many of its replacements), FK‑5‑1‑12 is non-toxic, which makes it ideal for use in confined spaces.

Each SFI-approved Extreme system includes a filled and pressurized bottle, bottle mounting brackets, 10 ft of 5/16" aluminum tubing, fittings, two push-on tee connectors, 1 cockpit discharge nozzles, and 2 engine bay discharge nozzles. This Mechanically-actuated system also includes one 6 foot actuating cable and cable hardware. The bottle measures 5" OD (slightly larger at the weld seams) x 9 3/4" Long overall (bottle length without actuating handles is 6.9").

This is a complete, ready-to-install system. You don't need to add anything else!

Note that the SFI 17.2 standard requires fire systems to be inspected and re-certified every 2 years, with a maximum life span of 6 years. Most sanctioning bodies (including SCCA) will not accept a fire system that is past is service date.
