[NHCOLL-L:598] fire suppression systems

[c-mayer2 at uiuc.edu]

The Illinois Natural History Survey is in the planning stages for the 
construction of a new building (about one third of which will house 
the collections).  We have been asked by the architects to inquire 
about fire suppression systems used in other museums.  If you have 
experience dealing with this issue, I would really appreciate your 
thoughts and/or comments.  Two of the specific systems the architects 
proposed are called FM-200 and INERGEN; any information pertaining to 
these systems would be most helpful.
Thanks,
Chris
