Remember that the space must also be fully sprinklered in addition to the FM-200 system. Most commonly as a pre-action system.

And no, FM-200 is not allowed in AF facilities.

FROM ETL 01-18
7.6. Prohibited Fire Suppression Systems. The following fire suppression systems will not be installed in any electronic equipment spaces:
• Halogenated agent systems
• Carbon dioxide (CO2) systems
• Dry-pipe water sprinkler systems
Note: Pre-action type sprinkler systems may be installed in some facilities as described in this ETL; however, use of pre-action type sprinkler systems is generally discouraged because of maintenance and reliability concerns.
Note: Several of the most common commercially available gaseous-agent systems are classified as HFC or PFC clean extinguishing agents. Significant questions have been
raised about the appropriateness of continued use of these agents due to atmospheric lifetime and global warming potential. Other commercially available gaseous agents
have no known adverse environmental impact.
