8 POST DISCHARGE
8.1 Ventilation
Before inspecting the enclosure after a Firetrace FK-5-1-12 ILP Unit discharge, ventilate the enclosure thoroughly. Ventilation paths should be
examined to prevent exposure to high concentrations of agent. Additionally, the proper safety equipment shall be utilized to prevent unnecessary
exposure.
FK-5-1-12 does not leave a residue, thus, there are no clean-up operations resulting from Firetrace FK-5-1-12 ILP Unit discharge.
