| The new class of clean agents is designed to provide the performance of halon without the environmental side effects. |
|
| Oh, and halon was banned for environmental reasons, not because it smothers people. |
|
| It was at first assumed that there had been an engine room fire and that the halon smothering gas had selfreleased and extinguished the fire. |
|
| The running engine consumed and expelled some halon, and oxygen was allowed to freely enter the engine room space, causing the fire to intensify. |
|
| It is a chain reaction, which ends in thousands of ozone molecules being destroyed by just one halon compound. |
|
| Decommissioned halon should be allowed to be stored for critical uses, exported from critical use storage or destroyed. |
|
| Furthermore, it could be a substitute for the production of halon in developing countries. |
|
| This should ensure that progress is made in reducing the quantity of halon for critical uses and thereby accelerate recovery of the ozone layer. |
|
| Any equipment containing halon that is not listed in Annex VII is therefore deemed noncritical. |
|
| The problem is that the other system, halon, displaces oxygen and has the potential to kill people as well. |
|
| A review of exports of bulk halon should be called for with a view to banning exports earlier than 31 December 2009, if appropriate. |
|
| However, both documents are still relevant to the maintenance, decommissioning and recycling of existing halon fire suppression systems. |
|
| The engine could not be stopped by the kill switch, nor was the ventilation to the engine room closed off before activating the halon fire-extinguishing system. |
|
| From 1993 to date, the majority of the funds under EC's Bilateral Program have been concentrated on the refrigeration sector, followed by the halon and fumigant sectors. |
|
| Mr. Beard said the building was equipped with a fire-suppression system that sprayed halon gas into the stacks to drive oxygen out, extinguishing the fire. |
|
| What's more, over the last two decades many countries have phased out one of the most effective extinguishers because it uses the ozone-depleting chemical halon. |
|
| The production of halon 2402 in developed countries ceased on 1 January 1994 in accordance with obligations under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. |
|
| The manufacture of halon 2402 in developed countries ceased on 1 January 1994 when the parties to the Montreal Protocol agreed to halt production in developed countries. |
|
| In addition, there is a real likelihood that, given that this bulk halon has little or no value, a considerable part of it could be vented in decommissioning. |
|
| Trifluoriodomethane has been proposed as a potential candidate for halon 1301 in aircraft engine nacelles. |
|
|
|
| For this reason the Montreal Protocol obliged developed nations to cease halon production in 1994, and set a 2010 target date for the developing world. |
|
| The other ODS that have already been phased out in the country include chlorofluorocarbons 11, 12, 113, 114, halon 1301 and 1211, carbon tetrachloride and methyl chloroforms. |
|
| Each wagon has a fire detection and extinguishing system, with sensing of ions or ultraviolet radiation, smoke and gases that can trigger halon gas to quench a fire. |
|
| Yellow Halon fire extinguishers should be removed from homes, farms, boats and caravans. |
|
| It took the entire Halon fire bottle to extinguish the flames. |
|
| Spil Games moved to Halon from Barracuda Networks email security solution after it failed to address their needs. |
|
| Halon 1301 is a Class I ozone-depleting substance, which is harmful to the environment. |
|
| There were environmental concerns that Halon was contributing to the destruction of the ozone layer. |
|
| For security managers to understand what they can and cannot do today with Halon, it may help to review the existing laws. |
|
| Through quick and decisive action, he utilized a flight line Halon fire bottle and extinguished the flames. |
|
| In the first VBSpam review of 2012, Halon Security's award winning email and spam gateway Virtual Spam Prevention was approved its seventh consecutive VBSpam award. |
