Bromotrifluoromethane Halon

Halon - As employed in the fire protection industry, a gaseous fire suppression agent. Halon is an acronym for halogenated hydrocarbons, commonly bromotrifluoromethane (Halon 1301) and bromochlorodifluoro-methane (Halon 1211). Considered obsolete for fire protection purposes due to a possible environmental impact to the Earth s atmospheric ozone layer and beginning to be phased out or eliminated. [Pg.286]

In the case of the halons, replacements are also being phased in. For example, halon 1301 (bromotrifluoromethane, CF3Br), widely used as a fire-extinguishing agent to protect sensitive electronic equipment, is being replaced by HFC-227 (CF3CHFCF3), which contains no chlorine or bromine. [Pg.64]

Hcdon extinguishers. These are the so-called clean agents that leave no residue but are effective as ABC extinguishing agents. Halon extinguishers, containing bromochlorodifluoromethane or bromotrifluoromethane, were used for many years however, Halon use was phased out in 2000 as a result of the Montreal Protocol... [Pg.106]

Halons Halons are hydrocarbons in which atoms from halogens replace one or more hydrogen atoms. Halons include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. There are a variety of halon systems. Extinguishing involves interruption of the hydroxyl radical of combustion. Some systems are discontinued because of toxicity and corrosion effects. Today two halons are in general use Halon 1211 (bromochlorodi-fluoromethane) and Halon 1301 (bromotrifluoromethane). Effectiveness is a function of many factors. Halon 1301 is best suited for total flooding applications, whereas Halon 1211 is weU suited for local application systems. Halon... [Pg.241]
