MAKING THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE – P3 AND ITS HAFEX BACKGROUND


MAKING THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE

Back in November 2014, OEMs were looking for an eco-friendlier fire extinguisher.

It was also to be smaller, lighter and more flexible to install than any other alternative

in the market. It was nowhere to be found. P3 was challenged to deliver a solution.

Undeterred from common opinion that everyone was demanding the impossible,

P3 set up a partnership with extinguishing experts FIREMARK and the manufacturers

ANAFGROUP, with P3 adding their own aviation qualification and integration expertise

to round off the set up.

With no burdening past as extinguisher manufacturers, no production lines to fill and

without ideological blinkers, P3 and co. went about their business finding the very best

solution, eventually defying the odds and proving mission possible: P3 HAFEX was born.

In dealing with this sensitive issue of The Montreal Protocol on Substances that De-

plete the Ozone Layernand, P3 are well ahead of schedule.

Only recently did the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and EASA both

re-set the deadline for the transition to eco-friendly fire extinguishers from 2016 to

the end of 2018, with all remaining aircraft required to retrofit by 2025.

P3 is the only supplier to succeed in meeting the original deadline.

P3 HAFEX:HALON ALTERNATIVE FIRE EXTINGUISHER


INTRODUCTION

Since the 1960’s Halon was widely used in handheld portable fire extinguishers in aviation.

Upon the identification of Halon as a CFC gas and its condemnation in the Montreal

Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, the production of Halon was ceased

in most countries in 1994 due to its negative environmental impacts. Today, its use has

now largely been restricted or banned for all but “critical applications” such as aviation,

military, and police use, but these are now subject to phase out deadlines, as well.

Thus, new halon-free products are required due to upcoming changes in regulation

(EASA & ICAO) with cut-off dates for newly built large aircrafts from 31.12.2018 on and

for all large aircraft in operation from 31.12.2025 on.

OUR SOLUTION

Aware of upcoming changes in regulations and after investigating the market

options, we decided to utilise Halotron BrX, which is the tradename for a stabilized

extinguishing agent also known as ‘2BTP’, and now have an EN qualified and EASA

certified product for use in cabins.

We are proud that our ‘UL 5B:C’ HAFEX handheld extinguisher is the smallest and

lightest product known to us to have achieved the FAA MPS tests.

Our ‘UL 5B:C’ HAFEX extinguisher is designed with ease of fit and retrofit in mind.

Our bracket design achieves an incredibly low profile whilst enabling the extinguisher

and bracket combination to achieve all aviation test requirements. In addition, the

interface connection options are such that typical existing halon units can be easily ex-

changed utilising the same holes.

Being aware of further needs in aviation, we have also commenced successful initial

testing for additional HAFEX models including ‘2B:C’, ‘5B:C with hose’ and a ‘1A:10B:C’

HAFEX types, also utilising Halotron BrX.

With regard to additional products and solutions, we have the capability and interest

in also developing a water glycol extinguisher for cabins, as well as a lavatory waste

bin fire extinguisher, where we are confident we can improve on the current models

available on the market.
