Kidde Marine Products

Proven, approved fire protection for all types of marine vessels.Kidde Marine Products Logo


With over 100 years of expertise, Kidde Marine Products is the leading manufacturer of fire safety products. Committed to producing technology that saves lives, they provide an array of systems and solutions for your vessel protection needs.

Kidde Marine Product fire suppression systems are used to suppress fires in specific hazards or equipment where an electrically non-conductive agent is required, where agent cleanup creates a problem, where extinguishing capability with a low weight is desired and where the hazard is normally occupied. Kidde FM-200 systems are intended to protect spaces containing the following hazards:

Class A : surface-type fires – wood or other cellulose-type material

Class B: flammable liquids

Class C : energized electrical equipment


Kidde® ADSTM with FM-200® Clean Inert Gas Suppression System:

The Kidde ADS with FM-200 Clean Agent Suppression System was developed by Kidde engineers to provide economical protection for larger enclosures requiring longer agent flow distances and as a “drop-in” replacement for Halon 1301. Most installations will require only new nozzles and agent storage cylinders and can use most of the existing pipework—providing substantial savings when retrofitting existing systems.


With the patented technology of “piston flow”, the ADS with FM-200 System is capable of delivering greater mass flow rates 2.5 to 3 times faster than a standard clean agent system. This innovation allows networking of longer pipe runs in complex configurations with smaller pipe sizes for the protection of larger hazard areas.


Kidde ADS with FM-200 System Features:

  • Virtual “drop-in” replacement for existing Halon installations. Uses existing piping, changes limited to replacement of agent storage cylinders and nozzles.

  • Increased agent flow rates and distances provide better coverage for larger hazard areas.

  • Smaller piping diameter results in installation cost savings.

  • Ultimate design flexibility provides the most economical protection for many applications.

  • Offers higher cylinder fill capacities for more efficient agent storage.

  • Enhanced performance and versatility—comes with a US Coast guard approval and is listed and approved with 3-way directional valves for economic protection of multiple enclosures.

FM-200 (1,1,1,2,3,3,3 - heptafluoropropane) is a compound of carbon, fluorine and hydrogen (CF3CHFCF3), stored in steel cylinders super pressurized with nitrogen to 360 psig. The cylinder valve assembly is equipped with a supervisory pressure switch connection for monitoring cylinder pressure. A pressure gauge and a safety disc are fitted to the valve in accordance with DOT requirements. Other system components include mounting brackets, control heads, pull stations, pilot cylinders, flex hoses, discharge delays, sirens, check valves, nozzles, etc. System controls can be configured to comply with all marine regulatory requirements.


Kidde® ECSTM with 3MTM NovecTM 1230 Fluid:

If you’re building a new vessel or retrofitting an existing one, the best fire protection decision you can make is to select a Kidde Marine Engineered Fire Suppression System Designed for Use with 3M Novec 1230 fluid. Novec 1230 fluid is a fluoroketone developed specifically by 3M for fire protection use. It is a compound of carbon, fluorine and oxygen (CF3CF2C(O)CF(CF3)2), stored in steel cylinders super pressurized with nitrogen to 25-bar (360 psig). The cylinder valve assembly is equipped with a supervisory pressure switch connection for monitoring cylinder pressure. A pressure gauge and a safety disc are fitted to the valve in accordance with DOT requirements. Other system components include mounting brackets, control heads, pull stations, pilot cylinders, flex hoses, discharge delays, sirens, check valves, nozzles, etc. System controls can be configured to comply with all marine regulatory requirements.
