Thanks Mark, So then in your opinion do we need sprinklers in the chamber itself, or can it be treated similar to a large electrical cabinet with sprinklers only at the roof deck?

Based on your description, EH1 in the chamber; OH2 outside. Mark A.

This is a self contained pressurized unit (80 psi) that is used to make retread tires. The unit is about 24' long and 8' or so wide. It is a cylinder. 13 allows tire manufacturing to be OH 2, but says that vulcanizing is EH1. Since the vulcanizing is a self contained steel unit can the overhead be protected per OH 2 or does it need to be EH 1. I'm leaning towards OH 2 since the process is in a self contained unit, but I would like other opinions. The AHJ is good with whatever our decision is as long as we can back things up.
