New Water-look-alike Technology

Tyco Fire & Security has announced the New SAPPHIRE™ Fire Suppression System that utilizes a new sustainable chemical agent that fights fires without causing any damage to electronics, works of art, or your irreplaceable PEZ collection. What makes all this possible is because the use of 3M’s NOVEC™ 1230 Fire Protection Fluid. The stuff looks exactly like water, but does not cause the type of damage associated with water when putting out a fire. The most amazing property about this fluid is that items can be fully immersed in the
agent and it will quickly evaporate, safeguarding items – and leaving them unaffected. There is no mention if this stuff taste like water… but I’m guessing not.
