EAc4 bans ozone-depleting fire suppressants such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and halons. FM-200 appears to be a trade name for a hydrofluorocarbon HFC-227ea fire-extinguishing agent developed as a halon alternative, so it does not appear to be one of the banned compounds.
Review product data to determine the product’s ozone depletion potential (ODP).
