An on-board system uses lines routed through the car with asingle actuator to engage in case of emergency. An on-board system shall use Novec 1230, Halon 1301, 1211,or Halotron I, hexafluoropropane, HFC-236a, CC0610, FE-36, five (5) pound minimum, with a minimum of two (2)nozzles (one (1) in cockpit and one (1) in engine bay) with manual or auto release. Other agents in SFI certifiedsystems are acceptable. Systems may also use AFFF material (e.g. SPA Lite, ZERO 2000, Coldfire 302) 2.25liter minimum. Additionally, the Lifeline Zero 360 Novek, 2.25 liter (or larger) is permitted. If such systems areused, the appropriate atomizing nozzles shall be used. All AFFF internally pressurized system bottles shall usea working pressure gauge. All AFFF bottles shall be marked with the recommended “filled weight.” All systemcylinders should be securely mounted with bolts. On-board systems may also use CEA614 provided that thelines and nozzles are replaced as per the manufacturer’s (3M) instructions. If an electric solenoid or switch isused to activate the fire suppression system, it should not lose power when the electrical master switch or vehicleignition switch is turned off. As of 01/01/2022 an onboard fire system is required.
