Bobby, I have designed several of these in hospitals and Dr.'s offices
around Atlanta and the biggest issue is getting into the vault.Most of
these are built with a blockout over the entry door for getting the
systems piping etc. into the vault but you need to make sure of this and
sleeve if you need to for your own purposes.Most will require preaction
because of the expensive equipment but I have also installed wet pipe
with black steel and C.I. fittings.This is not like the MRI vaults which
require non-ferrous materials and preaction.Hope this helps.

We are bidding a project that has Linear Accelerator Vaults. These
areas
have thick concrete walls, floor and ceilings and the machine produces
radiation for cancer treatment. They spec us installing D.I. Preaction
systems for these vaults. Is anyone familiar with these? My question
is can
we use black steel pipe and do we have to do anything special at our
penetrations into the rooms?
Thank you in advance.
