1.6 ITEMS FURNISHED WITH CONTAINERS
All Fike HFC-227ea Containers are furnished with the following items:
1.6.1 NAMEPLATE
All Fike HFC-227ea Containers are provided with a nameplate that provides the
following information that is specific to each container:
 Assembly and serial numbers of the container
 Weight Information: tare, gross and agent
 Installation, operation and safety information
All containers filled at the factory, or at an approved Initial Fill Station, will be provided
with a nameplate bearing the UL / ULC and FM markings.
1.6.2 SIPHON TUBE
Siphon Tubes are provided in all HFC-227ea containers that are suitable for mounting in the horizontal and
upright (valve up) positions. The purpose of the siphon tube is to ensure the complete dispersal of suppression
agent from the container to the protected space(s). Inverted HFC-227ea Containers (P/N 70-041 and 70-077) do
not have siphon tubes.
WARNING: DO NOT install HFC-227ea Containers with siphon tubes in the inverted (valve down) position.
This will result in a system failure due to the majority of the suppression agent remaining in the
container after activation.
1.6.3 VICTAULIC COUPLING & NIPPLE
Fike HFC-227ea Containers equipped with 2-1/2” (65 mm) and 3” (80 mm)
discharge outlet valves are supplied with a Grooved Coupling and a short
(grooved x threaded) nipple to facilitate connection of the container to the
discharge piping. For shipping purposes, a baffle plate is inserted into the
Grooved Coupling as a safety device (see container section). The baffle
plate MUST be removed prior to connection to the discharge piping.

calibrated to show the actual pressure, as well as a color-coded acceptable
operating range, under-pressure range, and over-pressure range.
