I am sure that Viking would be proud to provide a list of places that
they have been installed.

I have heard, but not seen, that they are in use in Libraries and
Museums, 
where at some point when the fire is out the water damage becomes a huge

concern. Just a rumor.

Are you referring to the Viking Firecycle system?  If so, they seem to
be most useful on projects with nervous electrical engineers.  I have
proposed them on data center projects just to get electrical engineers
to stop hyperventilating at the thought of having a sprinkler system
discharge in their space, but we have always settled on wet or
preaction.  The only place that I have seen them used in any volume is
in the cable vaults of telephone central offices and in the electrical
rooms of a large government data center.

Not the two wheeled type that have caused me some aggravation.

Can anyone provide feedback on the usefulness of these systems?  What is
the
ideal application if there is one?
