Re: Ventilation for diesel driven fire pump room

Oh and as far as determining the size of the ventilation opening. After you have found your CFM you should be able to use the equation Q= 2610 x A x squareroot (delta P) Or I guess, rearranged for the area you are looking for is A= (Q/(2610 x squareroot(delta P))) The variables are: Q= to

RE: Ventilation for diesel driven fire pump room

I've consulted with Tigerflow in the past on projects requiring standalone fire pump enclosures. They ship worldwide and I'm sure they would accept a phone call to discuss this if you do not have access to a mechanical engineer (HVAC type) who does this routinely. As others have noted the engine

Supervised vales in pump room

Here is an easy one for Friday. Is there a general requirement that all valves in a pump room be supervised? I am wondering about the valves in a flow meter loop that are normally closed. Ron Fletcher Aero - Phoenix ___ Sprinklerforum mailing list

Re: Supervised vales in pump room

There are valves that are wired for normally closed but you can switch the wires on a regular valve around but it won't go into supervisory in the number of turns required per code. On my jobs, all with the same AHJ, we always either swap the wires and lock them open, or just lock them only.

RE: Supervised vales in pump room

The phrasing is to the effect supply water to systems. If it's normally closed it can't be a supply and wouldn't need supervision. Similar to jockey pump valve, they don't feed the systems during a fire. For example IFC 903.4 Sprinkler system supervision and alarms. All valves controlling the

RE: Remote Area Question

Roland, as I have said before, I like being right, but I love being corrected when I am not :). I think you are right and I am wrong regarding the interpretation of the referenced section. I think there are problems with the referenced section though (i.e. configuration instead of system perhaps,
