What is Kidde Fluoro-K? Is Fluoro-K the same as Novec?

What is Kidde Fluoro-K?
EXTINGUISHING AGENT
Fluoro-K™ Fire Suppression Clean Agent (herein referred to as “agent”) is a fluorinated ketone (Dodecafluoro-2-methylpentan- 3-one) compound of carbon, fluorine and oxygen (CF3CF2C(O)CF(CF3)2). It is colorless, electrically non-conduc- tive and has a low odor. 

Kidde Fire Systems Fluoro-K™ based clean agent fire suppression systems are safe, competitive, and costeffective fire suppression solutions for protecting assets in commercial, light, and heavy industrial applications.
The Fluoro-K agent itself is colorless, with low odor and no particulate or oily residue allowing for minimal business disruption after a discharge. From an environmental standpoint, Fluoro-K has zero ozone depletion potential, and an atmospheric lifetime of less than five days. 

Is Fluoro K the same as Novec?
Fluoro-K is a FK-5-1-12 chemical clean agent alternative to Novec 1230 (which will eventually be phased out), and which addresses the same purity and toxicity concerns associated with Halon. In most cases, a system originally designed for Novec requires no hardware changes if converted to using Fluoro-K.

What is the difference between Novec 1230 and fk-5-1-12?
What's the difference between Novec 1230 and FK-5-1-12? Simply put, Novec 1230 is a trade name or chemical name for the product manufactured by 3M. When the chemical is manufactured elsewhere, it meets the same specification and is governed by the same rules and regs. FK-5-1-12's chemical composition does not change.
