Protect what matters. 3M™ Novec 1230 Fire Protection Fluid is a next-generation halon and HFC clean agent replacement technology.

Protect your vital systems with Novec™ 1230 Fire Suppression Fluid
- 3M™ Novec™ 1230 Fire Protection Fluid vaporizes quickly (50-times faster than water) when released, is non-corrosive and not electrically conductive, so that sensitive electronic systems such as data centers, server rooms, telecommunications or other equipment are not damaged. In contrast to foam or powder, it does not leave any damaging residues, so the systems do not have to be cleaned and remain up and running after the release of Novec fluid.
- 3M Novec fire protection fluid gives you the peace of mind that you’ve made a smart choice, a safe choice, and a choice that will help both sustain your business operations and, with a global warming potential of less than one, meet important sustainability goals. It offers the highest known margin of safety for human occupancy of any clean agent under the NFPA 2001 standard (2022 edition).
- Because Novec fluid is stored as a liquid and discharged as a gas, it can be transported by air to help enable quick refills. Each shipment includes a 3M Certificate of Analysis verifying the product has been tested to meet both 3M internal and NFPA 2001 (2022 edition, section A.5.1.2.3) standards for quality.
