Great, now all you need are some holes poked in the chamber.

Subject: Shielded Enclosure Fire Hazard
>
>Hi Listmembers!
>
>My lab just had an annual inspection visit by our friendly fire hazard
>inspector. Seems that after 4 successive years of inspections, I suddenly
>failed this year. The reason is that my 24' x 35' x 10' modular shielded
>enclosure doesn't have internal water sprinklers.
>
>Now I'm all in favor of sprinklers; there's several in the ceiling of the
>parent room that contains my enclosure. But that doesn't protect the
>contents of the shielded enclosure. What if a fire started inside the
>enclosure and then had time to grow? The parent room sprinklers might not
be
>able to stop the blaze then! Never mind that there's almost no fuel within
>the enclosure; just fire-retardant rated anechoic foam and a 10' long table
>made out of wood 4x4's.
>
>So I don't suppose this is really about common sense. Has anyone recently
>addressed the issue of fire protection within a shielded enclosure? Or
>should I move right on to the sprinkler RFQ phase?
