MA2 Manual/Automatic Fire Extinguisher

On board, on guard, 24 hours a day - these Fireboy MA2 fire suppression systems (second generation of the MA Serie) are the safest way to combat an engine room fire.
No operator intervention is required to extinguish a fire, but optional manual release is available (requires purchase of a Fireboy activation cable), see Related Products, below.

The clean, heptafluoropropane (HFC-227ea) agent is approved for occupied spaces, and is also approved for use in Europe. (HFC-227ea agent is also marketed as FM-200® and FE-227™.)
When 175°F (79°C) is reached, the extinguisher will automatically discharge, releasing the clean agent gas to totally flood the entire space, smothering the fire.

When calculating engine compartment volume, use the maximum compartment dimensions, and DO NOT deduct for engines, fixed tanks, etc.
If in doubt, always select the larger model size for adequate protection.
Do not use more than one extinguisher in a compartment.
