Fire Suppression for the Mainstream Technologies Data Center:

We use FM-200 also known as heptafluoropropane or FE-227. Manufacturer suggests that 7% is needed for effective suppression of fire. Mainstream Technologies has set the in-house system in the Data Center to use a concentration of 8%. A concentration of 9% has no observable effect on humans and requires no mandated egress time to evacuate the room. This gas has no residual and can be removed by ventilation.
