diesel exhaust insulation

We are getting ready to insulate the exhaust pipes for a diesel motor pump. Is there a particular style or type of insulation that works better than others? Thanks! Matt ___ Sprinklerforum mailing list Sprinklerforum@lists.firesprinkler.org

Re: Exterior Stairs

I know, enclosing these stairs creates a problem. But Todd, you think if a building has exterior, non-combustible stairs (such as say a fire exit), then it should be sprinklered? I haven't thought of it as that way, that is why I'm asking. Tony On Thu, Oct 18, 2018 at 7:39 AM Fpdcdesign wrote:

I completely agree with Thomas. You’ll need to include total in storage and the MAQ’s for IB(?) flammable liquids storage in plastic containers(?). Scott Office: (763) 425-1001 x 2 Cell: (612) 759-5556 From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:sprinklerforum-boun...@lists.firesprinkler.org] On Behalf Of

Re: 130 sq ft or 225 sq ft

The FPE kissed the pooch. The 2x6’s drive the boat so it’s combustible obstructed construction with members < 3 ft OC. Now if you put some insulation in the channels whereby the depth of the exposed member is less than 4 inches, then you get to merrily embrace the 225 sf As. Roland Roland

RE: Exterior Stairs

You would still only sprinkler at the top of the stairs and the lowest landing if it’s not combustible. My concern would be if it required a standpipe. Cliff Whitfield, SET President Fire Design, Inc. 184 Comfort Place Burnsville, NC 28714 Ph: 828-284-4772

Re: Exterior Stairs

Open stairs should not be a problem. It’s the enclosure making it effectively a stair tower Todd G Williams, PE Fire Protection Design/Consulting Stonington, CT 860-535-2080 (ofc) 860-553-3553 (fax) 860-608-4559 (cell) > > On Oct 18, 2018

RE: Rack storage of ATVs

I would first look at your International Fire Code for storing vehicles inside. Batteries disconnected. Fuel one-quarter tank or 5 gallon. I would look at the total storage of the gasoline(flammable liquid.) From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:sprinklerforum-boun...@lists.firesprinkler.org] On Behalf

130 sq ft or 225 sq ft

I have a project with 24" deep bar joist at 8' on center. Spanning the joist are 2x6 stringers at 24" on center. I was under the impression that something like this would limit us to 130 sq ft per sprinkler. The FPE that spec'd out the project has indicated 225 sq ft max in this area. What

RE: 130 sq ft or 225 sq ft

It will have insulation. That may be how they got to 225 sq ft. Travis Mack, SET MFP Design, LLC 3356 E Vallejo Ct Gilbert, AZ 85298 480-505-9271 fax: 866-430-6107 email:tm...@mfpdesign.com

RE: Interstitial Sprinklers

You can use SxL. You don't have to do in 2' increments like with Ex Cov sprinklers. Travis Mack, SET MFP Design, LLC 3356 E Vallejo Ct Gilbert, AZ 85298 480-505-9271 fax: 866-430-6107 email:tm...@mfpdesign.com

Interstitial Sprinklers

The interstitial sprinklers have a maximum sq. ft. per the product data. For example the Tyco CC3 5.6k interstitial has a maximum sq. ft. of 256 sq. ft. In the hydraulic calculations do you have to use 256 or can you use the actual sq. ft. that the sprinkler is covering, say a 12 X 14 you would

Re: Exterior Stairs

Remember, these stairs are a means of egress. If these stairs were enclosed as part of the original building construction, would you sprinkler it? Todd G Williams, PE Fire Protection Design/Consulting Stonington, CT 860-535-2080 (ofc) 860-553-3553 (fax) 860-608-4559

Re: diesel exhaust insulation

Check the data sheet for the engine from Clarke or whoever else is supplying the engine. It will list the maximum exhaust temperature. Start with that and talk to an insulation company for a recommendation. Make sure the insulation is rated for the maximum temperature. You do not want to know
