The XV Control System offers the use of mechanical, electrical or a combination of mechanical and electrical actuation. Mechanical actuation utilizes detectors (fusible, KGR and/or KGS) to detect heat, whereas electrical actuation utilizes heat detectors for detection. Mechanical and electrical actuation can be combined together when configured using a UL Listed fire control panel, such as the Kidde ScorpioTM. Figure 4-15 illustrates the steps to follow when deciding what type of actuation to use. Mechanical Mechanical, electrical Electrical or both? "Mechanical Detec- tion Installation" on page 4-15.

Detector Housing Kit, P/N 804548 A Use of a crimp tool besides P/N 253538 can cause malfunction and/or WARNING unwanted discharge of the system. S Note: In order to ensure the crimp sleeve is secure, the cable must always be looped so that there are two lengths of cable. inside the Crimp Sleeve before crimping. Cable must not be spliced anywhere along its length. Place the Crimp Tool on the end of the sleeve. Ensure the flat of the sleeve rests in the saddle of the Crimp Tool jaw. Secure the sleeve in the tool carefully to ensure the sleeve does not shift in the saddle before pressing. Squeeze the handles of the Crimp Tool until the tool releases itself. The tooth of the jaw is pressing on the wall of the sleeve without cracking the malleable copper. The first crimp is complete. Remove the crimp from the tool. Put the Crimp Tool onto the other end of the sleeve. The sleeve shall be 1800 turned in the tool from the first crimp. Note: This is pressing the loop end of the sleeve (opposite that of the first press). Squeeze the handles of the Crimp Tool until the tool releases itself. The tooth of the jaw is pressing on the wall of the sleeve without cracking the malleable copper. The second crimp is complete. Remove the crimp from the tool. To ensure proper system operation, each detector must be installed so that at least 1-1/2 inches of cable movement toward the XV Control System is CAUTION maintained. 10 14. Attach an "S" hook (P/N 87-9189413-000) to the end of the last detector mounting bracket. January 2007 4-16 P/N 220423 Installation Attach proper detector onto the "S" hook. Attach 1/16-inch cable to the hook at the other end of the detector, forming a cable loop •• held in place by a Crimp Sleeve. Note: If only one detector is used, thread the cable back through the EMT conduit to the XV Control System. If additional detectors are used, attach the cable to each successive detector "S" hook, as described above. After attaching cable to last detector "S" hook, thread cable back through the EMT conduit to the XV Control System. 1/16 in.

The IND system holds UL listings and FM Approvals as a pre-engineered system. Systems shall be designed and implemented according to the following: NFPA Standard 17, "Standard for Dry Chemical Systems", NFPA Standard 33, "Standard for Spray Applications Using Flammable or Combustible Material", Other applicable NFPA standards as required for a particular application and design, including, but not limited to, NFPA 70 (NEC) and NFPA 72, Fire Alarm Standard. This Design, Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual. Any other standards enforced by a local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Configurations in Chapter 3, System Design, are tested and listed to Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard 1254, and FM Approved. Open-Face Spray Booth configurations (Section 3-2.3) are tested and listed to UL Standard 1254. 1-2 CLASSIFICATION OF FIRE is The classification of fire is defined as the following: Class A: Surface Type Fires; wood or other cellulose-type material (ordinary combustibles) Class B: Flammable liquids Class C: Energized electrical equipment - Class D: Combustible metals (such as magnesium, sodium, zirconium, potassium, and titanium) Class K: Combustible cooking media (vegetable or animal oils and fats) Note: Kidde IND Dry Chemical is not suited for Class D and Class K type of fires. 1-3 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE KIDDE IND SYSTEM The Kidde IND System is a dry chemical fire suppression system with two types of agent. The system is capable of encompassing a wide variety of application requirements. The system utilizes stored pressure agent cylinders. Stored pressure cylinders: Remain free of contamination Reduce the packing of the agent Provide a smooth flow throughout the discharge The cylinders are powder-coated, welded mild-steel shell conforming to DOT 4BW or 4BA construction. The valve is forged brass with chrome-nickel plating. The plating and cylinder coating help to make the assemblies corrosion resistant. P/N 220423 1-1 January 2007 General Information The system can be activated mechanically from manual release, thermo-bulb links, and fusible links. The system can be activated electrically, using a tested and listed 24 Vdc control panel. Both automatic detection devices and manual release can be used on control panels. Cylinders are actuated from stored high-pressure nitrogen. Automatic and manual actuation are available for the Kidde IND System. Other actuations are available, such as: Mechanical gas valve closure Dry contacts for annunciation and electrical shutdown 1-4 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The Kidde IND Dry Chemical System is a fixed dry chemical system consisting of a supply of dry chemical stored in one or more Cylinder and Valve Assembly. Each cylinder is pressure activated by a System Valve Actuator. The system can be actuated either automatically and/or manually, using mechanical, electrical, or pressure actuation devices Upon actuation, the dry chemical is discharged through agent distribution piping and specially designed nozzles positioned throughout the protected area.

Operational Sequence Flow Chart January 2007 1-4 P/N 220423 General Information 1-6 APPLICATIONS There are two general types of applications for dry chemical systems: Total-Flood and Local- Application. In addition, the Kidde IND System is UL Listed for protection of Industrial Open-Front Spray Paint Booths. 1-6.1 Total-Flooding - Total-Flood refers to a volumetric area that is completely enclosed; The Kidde IND System is UL Listed and FM approved with uncloseable opening(s) up to 5% of the total area of the walls, floor, and ceiling. In total-flooding, a predetermined amount of dry chemical is discharged through fixed piping and nozzles into an enclosed space or enclosure around the hazard. Total-flooding is applicable only when the hazard is totally enclosed or when all openings surrounding a hazard can be closed automatically when the system is discharged. Total-flooding can be used only where no re-ignition is anticipated. System is listed up to 5% of the hazard having uncloseable openings. See Chapter 3 for total-flood design parameters. Note: Dry Chemical Systems do not inert the atmosphere of a total-flood application. They are affective during discharge. 1-6.2 Local-Application Local-Application refers to areas that are not enclosed. In a local-application system, the nozzles are arranged to discharge directly into the fire. Local- application is practical in those situations where the hazard can be isolated from other hazards so that fire will not spread beyond the area protected, and where the entire hazard can be protected. The principal use of local-application systems is to protect open tanks of flammable liquids. Local-application is ineffective unless extinguishment can be immediate and there are no re-ignition sources. See Chapter 3 for local-application design parameters. 1-6.3 Industrial Open-Front Spray Paint Booth UL considers the Industrial Open-Front Spray Paint Booth a total-flood type of application, but enforces a specific test standard for that application. The design parameters included in "Industrial Open-Front Spray Paint Booth" on page 5 were arrived at by testing to this standard. An Open-Front Spray Paint Booth has no doors on the front of the booth. During painting operations, the front remains open. A properly designed ventilation system will prevent overspray from escaping out of the booth. The UL 1254 standard requires that the open-front be "screened" while the work area is being flooded. In addition, all parts of the ventilation system (plenum and duct) are also protected. Both ABC and BC dry chemicals are permitted in the work area and plenum of an Open-Front Spray Paint Booth. Only BC dry chemical is used in the duct. See Chapter 3 for open-front spray paint booth parameters. P/N 220423 1-5 January 2007 General Information 1-7 APPLICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DRY CHEMICAL SYSTEMS "Multipurpose" (ABC) agent is used for areas where some sort of "ordinary combustibles," such as wood and paper are present. One example is a furniture factory in which the wood furniture is being used. Since wood is a class "A" combustible, the Open-Front Spray Booth in which the furniture is being finished would have ABC dry chemical protection for the work area and plenum. "Regular Dry Chemical" (BC) agent is used for areas where there are no "ordinary combustibles." One example is a dip tank in which metal parts are being coated. While in process, the coating is combustible or flammable. The most affective agent is BC, for fast flame knockdown. Other applications include, but not limited to: Open-Front Paint Spray Booths Spill Areas Hazardous Storage Buildings Dip Tanks Electrical Motors Pumps Switchgear Rooms Flammable Liquid Storage Facilities The dry chemicals used in the Kidde IND Dry Chemical System are stable at both low and high temperatures. Various additives are mixed with the base materials to improve their storage, flow, and water-repellency characteristics. The upper storage temperature limit for the system is 120°F (490C). The lower temperature limit is -40°F (-400C). 0 Upon system alarm notification, all personnel must evacuate the protected A space. Failure to do so may result in temporary respiratory difficulties, WARNING disorientation, and/or personal injury. 1-7.1 Extinguishing Properties When introduced into the combustion zone, dry chemical causes almost immediate flame suppression. Smothering, cooling and radiation shielding contribute to the extinguishing efficiency of dry chemical, but the principal mechanism for the flame extinguishment is the chemical chain-breaking properties of the dry chemicals. When ABC dry chemical is discharged, the decomposed monoammonium phosphate leaves a sticky residue. This residue seals oxygen from the burning material, thus providing fire suppression and inhibiting re-ignition. January 2007 1-6 P/N 220423 General Information 1-7.2 Limitations of Dry Chemicals Dry chemicals do not inert or secure after discharge is complete. If securement is required, either an extended discharge is required, or a different choice of agents, or both, is necessary. Dry Chemical system protection is not recommended, however, for delicate electrical equipment, such as: Telephone switchboards Electronic computers Such equipment is subject to damage by dry chemical deposit and, because of the insulating properties of the dry chemical, may require excessive cleaning to restore operation. 1-8 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INFORMATION SYSTEM (HMISSM) The HMIS rating for regular (BC, sodium bicarbonate base), and multi-purpose (ABC, monoammoniurn phosphate base) dry chemical is as follows: Health (H) = 1 Flammability (F) = 0 Reactivity (R) = 0 A Dry chemical fire extinguishing agents are considered nontoxic, but are classified as a nuisance dust irritant, and may cause temporary irritation to the CAUTION eyes, skin, or respiratory system.

S do January 2007 1-8 P/N 220423 Components CHAPTER 2 COMPONENTS n 2-1 FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM COMPONENTS The Kidde® IND TM Dry Chemical Fire Suppression System consists of the following major components: Suppression (Agent storage cylinders distribution piping, nozzles, and detection devices (mechanical and electrical) Controls Auxiliary Components Cylinder and Valve Assembly The IND Dry Chemical Fire Suppression System utilizes six sizes of cylinders. The cylinders consist of a factory-filled dry chemical agent and valve assembly. The cylinders conform to DOT specification 4BW-4BA and NFPA standards. Distribution Piping The distribution piping (not supplied by Kidde) is designed to distribute the dry chemical agent to the hazard areas. In the Kidde IND pre-engineered system, pipe sizes, minimum and maximum pipe lengths and number of pipe fittings are predetermined. See Chapter 3 for more details. 0 Nozzles There are five types of nozzles for the IND Dry Chemical Fire Suppression System. Each type of nozzle has been designed and tested for specific applications and areas of coverage. The nozzles are: Local-Application (low overhead, high overhead, and tankside) Total-Flooding Duct/Plenum Detection Devices There are two methods of detection that can be employed in the system: mechanical or electrical. Mechanical detection uses fusible-link or thermo-bulb link detectors to provide reliable performance. The detectors are designed to separate at a specific temperature and release tension on the detection cable which causes the release mechanism to activate. Fusible- link detectors are available in four temperature ratings, and the thermo-bulb detectors are available in six temperature ratings. Electrical detection uses heat detectors that are equipped with self-restoring, normally- open contacts which close when a predetermined temperature is reached. Heat detectors are available in six set points. P/N 220423 2-1 January 2007 Components XV Control System The XV Control System is used for actuating the Kidde IND Cylinder and Valve Assembly. The XV Control System can be mounted directly on the cylinder or to a wall.

January 2007 2-36 P/N 220423 System Design CHAPTER 3 SYSTEM DESIGN 3-1 INTRODUCTION This chapter introduces the designer and installer to the design process. It outlines the process, introduces the parameters imposed on design by system hardware, as well as those mandated by performance considerations. As the designer becomes familiar with this material, they should remember that analysis and design is a careful, step-by-step process. All steps must be followed, none can be omitted, and all unique aspects of a given application must be taken into account if the resulting fire- suppression system is to deliver the desired results. Systems shall be designed and implemented according to the following: NFPA Standard 17, "Standard for Dry Chemical Systems", NFPA Standard 33, "Standard for Spray Applications Using Flammable or Combustible Material", Other applicable NFPA standards as required for a particular application and design, including, but not limited to, NFPA 70 (NEC) and NFPA 72, Fire Alarm Standard. This Design, Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual. Any other standards enforced by a local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Configurations in this chapter are tested and listed to Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard 1254, and FM Approved. Open-Face Spray Booth configurations (Section 3-4.2) are tested and listed to UL Standard 1254. 3-2 APPLICATION TYPES There are relatively few generic types of Dry Chemical fire suppression system applications. They vary from each other in terms of the nature, NFPA Class designation, and physical layout of the hazard, the flammable materials involved, whether or not the area to be protected is enclosed, whether there are associated ducts, plenums, and/or forced ventilation systems, whether there is auxiliary equipment which must be controlled as part of any fire-suppression action, and in other ways. The main application types are: Total-Flooding Systems Open-Face Spray-Booth Systems Local-Application Systems Combination Systems P/N 220423 3-1 January 2007 System Design 3-2.1 Total-Flooding Systems Total-Flood refers to a volumetric area that is completely enclosed. In total-flooding, a predetermined amount of dry chemical is discharged through fixed piping and nozzles into an enclosed space or enclosure around the hazard. Total-flooding is applicable only when the hazard is totally enclosed or when all openings surrounding a hazard can be closed automatically when the system is discharged. Total-flooding can be used only where no re-ignition is anticipated. System is listed up to 5% of the hazard having uncloseable openings. See Section 3-4.1 for total-flood design parameters. Note: Dry Chemical Systems do not inert the atmosphere of a total-flood application. They are affective during discharge. 3-2.2 Local-Application Systems (For Indoor Use Only) Local-Application refers to areas that are not enclosed. In a local-application system, the nozzles are arranged to discharge directly into the fire. Local- application is practical in those situations where the hazard can be isolated from other hazards so that fire will not spread beyond the area protected, and where the entire hazard can be protected. The principal use of local-application systems is to protect open tanks of flammable liquids. Local-application is ineffective unless extinguishment can be immediate and there are no re-ignition sources. See Section 3-4.3 for local-application design parameters. o2.3 Open-Face Spray Booth Systems UL considers the Industrial Open-Front Spray Paint Booth a total-flood type of application, but enforces a specific test standard for that application. The design parameters included in "Open- Face Spray Booths (Only UL Listed)" on page 11 were arrived at by testing to this standard. An Open-Front Spray Paint Booth has no doors on the front of the booth. During painting operations, the front remains open. A properly designed ventilation system will prevent overspray from escaping out of the booth. The UL 1254 standard requires that the open-front be screened" while the work area is being flooded. In addition, all parts of the ventilation system (plenum and duct) are also protected. Both ABC and BC dry chemicals are permitted in the work area and plenum of an Open-Front Spray Paint Booth. Only BC dry chemical is used in the duct. See Paragraph 3-4 and Paragraph 3-5 for complete design parameters. Note: Dry chemical systems for vehicle spray booths are covered in a separate manual, P/N 83-100036-001. January 2007 3-2 P/N 220423 System Design 3-2.4 Combination Systems Some applications combine features of total-flooding and local-application. For example, an oil- quenching system with an associated conveyor belt might require both forms of coverage in order to control combustion at the surface of the quenching bath (local- application), and along the length of the conveyor system (total-flooding). In the case of spray booths which vary widely in design, attention must be paid both to the requirements of the booth itself, as well as to associated ductwork or plenums. Sometimes the requirements of the booth may differ from the needs of the associated Duct/Plenum(s), and the analysis-design process must take this into account. Each segment of the combination system uses separate system cylinders, nozzles and distribution piping. 3-3 DESIGN PROCEDURE 3-3.1 General Design Procedure Analysis and design should be approached as a methodical process, and performed step by step. Only when all the steps are followed is the resulting system likely to perform as desired. If any step is omitted, it is probable that the system will not function as well as it should. The steps in the analysis and design process are: S Hazard analysis Suppression-system selection Nozzle selection, number and location Tankage, (Number, size, and location of cylinders) Detector selection Piping layout Auxiliary requirements 3-3.1.1 HAZARD ANALYSIS Determine the NFPA Class and severity of the hazard. Analysis also includes: Determining the physical layout of the hazard, Manner and speed with which the fire might propagate, and the Likelihood of its spreading into adjacent areas. The classification of flammable liquids can be found in NFPA 30: "Flammable and Combustible Liquid Code." Flammable liquid characteristics can be obtained from sources of reference such as safety data sheets and NFPA 325M: "Fire Hazard Properties of Flammable Liquids, Gases, and Volatile Solids." The severity of the fire hazard generally relates to the possibility of explosive conditions created by the flammable materials within the confines of the protected area. This danger can usually be mitigated by safeguards such as: Adequate ventilation, Explosion-proof wiring and fixtures, and Product containerization. A With dry chemicals, it is important to remember that there is no inerting of the CAUTION protected space following fire extinguishment. P/N 220423 3-3 January 2007 System Design 3-3.1.2 SUPPRESSION-SYSTEM SELECTION Determine whether total-flooding or local-application, or both are required. Total-flooding systems are used if there is an enclosure around the hazard. Local-application techniques are used in situations where the hazard is unenclosed, but isolated from other hazards and can be protected by a Dry Chemical discharge directed at it. 3-3.1.3 NOZZLE SELECTION AND LOCATION Select the number and type(s) of nozzle(s) needed and locate them so that the entire hazard is covered. Use the coverage/distribution specifications for each nozzle type to determine the number of discharge nozzles required to deliver the necessary quantity of dry chemical given nozzle placement appropriate to the hazard. The nozzle types are: Total- flooding nozzles High or low overhead nozzles for local-application Tankside nozzles for local-application Duct/Plenum (DIP) nozzles for use in the exhaust ducts and plenums 3-3.1.4 TANKAGE DETERMINATION (NUMBER, SIZE, AND LOCATION OF CYLINDER(S)) Determine the number of nozzles required, whether additional agent or nozzles may be needed, and select the tankage which will supply the needed amounts dry chemical. After determining the quantity and types of dry chemical needed to control the hazard itself, determine whether any special conditions necessitate additional dry chemical quantities and/or nozzles. For example, it may be necessary to adjust the agent discharge rate in order to offset the effects of ventilation, or it may be necessary to screen openings in an enclosure to prevent dry chemical leakage through those openings. Also, depending upon the criticality of the application and/or the potential for re-ignition, it may be necessary to provide a connected reserve supply of dry chemical. 3-3.1.5 DETECTOR SELECTION Detector selection will depend on the response speed required, the probable heat level and rate of spread of the fire. The detectors sense the heat energy released by the combustion of fuel and oxygen. Upon detection of a fire, the detection system sends a signal to the system control head(s) which initiates the dry chemical discharge. The most commonly used detectors are the: Fixed-temperature thermo-bulb or fusible link Fixed-temperature rate-compensated thermostat 3-3.1.6 PIPING LAYOUT - BALANCED PIPING Dry Chemical piping is balanced within ± 10% with the exception of open-front spray booths. Careful piping layout assures that the agent reaches the distribution nozzles appropriately, and that piping parameters are not exceeded. These parameters involve pipe lengths, the number of elbows, and other factors such as the allowable distances (equivalent/feet) from Cylinder and Valve Assembly. These parameters are discussed in detail in the design examples contained in the sections on application types. January 2007 3-4 P/N 220423 System Design 3-3.1.6.1 Equivalent Length (Only UL Listed) For the purposes of pressure drop calculations, it is convenient to replace a fitting with a section of straight pipeline. The length of the substituted piece of pipe is chosen so that the pressure drop across it equals the pressure loss through the fitting it replaced. In this sense, each type of fitting is equivalent to a certain length of straight pipeline, and each fitting is assigned an "equivalent length." Substitutions of this type allow each point in the distribution system to be described by two numbers - one number being the actual linear length of pipe to that point, and the second number being the total equivalent length of pipe to that point, taking fittings into account. The main supply line, the sub-supply lines (four-nozzle cylinders), and the nozzle branch lines are each rated for a maximum pipe length and a maximum equivalent pipe length. Table 3-1. Equivalent Length of Pipe Fittings Fitting Type Pipe Size 3/4 inch I 1 inch go° Elbow 2.0 2.0 I Tee 4.0 I 5.0 3-3.1.6.2 Flow Division When the flow of a two-phase fluid changes in direction, such as at an elbow, the flow change can cause a separation of the nitrogen gas and the Dry Chemical powder. In order to ensure the proper flow division of dry chemical at each tee, certain minimum pipe lengths must be observed when approaching a tee following a change in flow direction. These minimum pipe lengths are shown in Figure 3-1. Note: These minimum pipe lengths also apply to local-application systems. 20 PIPE DIAMETERS MINIMUM LENGTH REQUIRED 20 PIPE DIAMETERS MINIMUM LENGTH REQUIRED MINIMUM LENGTHS 20 PIPE DIAMETERS PIPE SIZE MIN4.GTH-200 I in. 20 . 314 In. .,:n n.

Examples of acceptable fitting materials include hot-dipped-galvanized malleable iron, ductile iron, or steel. Couplings and unions may be used where necessary, and reducing bushings or reducing tees can be used for changes in pipe diameter. Note: Black steel pipe and fittings can be used in relatively noncorrosive atmospheres. AUXILIARY REQUIREMENTS Controls are required to turn off forced-draft ventilation systems, fuel (or combustible-liquid) pumps, conveyers, and so on. C January 2007 3-6 P/N 220423 System Design 3-4 SYSTEM DESIGN: SUPPRESSION 3-4.1 Total-Flooding Systems . Total-flooding systems are used when there is an enclosure around the protected equipment or material. Total-flooding systems are designed to fill the enclosure with a concentration of Dry Chemical sufficient to extinguish a fire in the combustibles involved. All ventilation must be shut-down at the time of agent discharge and, if possible, all openings must be closed. Discharge of the Dry Chemical is through fixed, mounted nozzles connected to one or more cylinders. Regular, BC (sodium-bicarbonate base) Dry Chemical is used to protect flammable or combustible liquid total-flooding hazards. Multi-purpose, ABC (monoammonium-phosphate base) dry chemical is used for total-flooding applications involving ordinary combustibles (Class A) and flammable or combustible liquids. 3-4.1.1 COVERAGE The protected space is divided into modules. For applications with ceiling heights up to and including 12 feet, the maximum surface area coverage for each nozzle is 112.5 square feet subject to a longest side for rectangular areas not to exceed 15 feet. The maximum distance from the ceiling to the nozzle tip is 4.5 inches. The maximum area and volume coverages are shown in Figure 3-3 and in Table 3-2. Each nozzle should be centered in its protected volume segment. For applications with ceiling heights from 12 feet up to 20 feet, the maximum volume is 1350 cubic feet subject to a longest side for rectangular areas not to exceed 15 feet. Table 3-2.

S January 2007 3-10 P/N 220423 WORK Al PLENUM System Design 3-4.2 Open-Face Spray Booths (Only UL Listed) Open-face spray booths are a unique hazard type for pre-engineered dry chemical systems. In response to the need for fire protection for this hazard Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has developed a specific test protocol within• the UL 1254 (Pre-engineered Dry Chemical Extinguishing System Units) Standard. The system hardware and design included in this section meets the UL requirements for protection of open-face spray-booth applications. This design also meets the requirements of NFPA 17. 3-4.2.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION An open-face spray booth is an enclosure with one wall open (typically the front face) in which parts and equipment are sprayed with possible flammable or combustible material (i.e. paints, finishes, lacquers, etc.). When in operation, the booth is continually ventilated to remove the flammable vapors that are generated during spraying operations. A typical open-face spray booth is usually divided into two sections by a large bank of filters that extends from the floor to the ceiling. The filters collect the over-spray of paint or other materials, and remove suspended droplets from the mixture of air and flammable vapors being exhausted. The two sections of the spray booth are called the work area and the plenum. The work area is typically the larger of the two sections, and is the place where the parts and equipment are sprayed. The plenum is the space into which the exhaust gases flow after passage through the filter bank. The vapors are exhausted from the spray booth by a forced ventilation system connected to the plenum by ductwork. The exhaust gases eventually discharge to atmosphere. The spray booth, shown in Figure 3-8 has an open-front face. Figure 3-6. Open-Face Spray Booth P/N 220423 3-11 January 2007 S System Design NFPA 33, standard for spray application using flammable and combustible materials, classifies the interior sections of paint spray booths, and certain areas adjacent to booth openings, as Class-1 or Class-11, Division-2 locations. Dry *A chemical system electrical components, such as thermostats, located within these AUTION areas shall be rated for use in classified areas, and all wiring to these components shall conform to the provisions of NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, for Class-1 or Class-11, Division-2 locations. Any industrial system control head with a microswitch is not suitable for use in a classified area. 3-4.2.2 SPRAY BOOTH PROTECTION Open-face spray booths are specifically protected using the following design criteria. This design is UL Listed for protection of open-face spray booths. The work area, plenum, and exhaust duct are separately analyzed to determine the total extinguishing system requirements. The IND-70 or IND-75 must be used to protect the front, work area, and plenum of the open-face spray booth. Maximum coverage and nozzle placement requirements for an open-face spray booth using one IND-75 are shown in Figure 3-7. For ABC applications, separate cylinders (IND-25 or IND-50) are required for protection of the exhaust duct. 3-4.2.2.1 Work Area Protection for the work area is provided by total-flooding nozzles, P/N 83-100005-001. For open-face spray booths, high overhead nozzles (P/N 259270) provide a "wall" of dry chemical across the open face. These nozzles are to be located as indicated in Figure 3-7 and Figure 3-8 and mounted at ceiling level, with the orifice tip pointed vertically down. The maximum distance from the ceiling of the work area to the screening nozzle is 4 inches. The maximum distance from the ceiling of the work area to the total-flooding nozzle is 3.75 inches. One IND-70 or one IND-75 cylinder must use two high-overhead nozzles and two total-flooding nozzles. These four nozzles will provide coverage for the work area of an open-face spray booth with maximum dimensions of 10 feet wide by 10 feet deep by 10 feet high. For applications wider than 10 feet, multiple IND-70/75 cylinders are required (i.e. two IND-70 or IND-75 cylinders will protect an open-face spray booth up to 20 feet wide. The maximum uncloseable work area opening using two high-overhead nozzles from one IND- 70/75 cylinder is 100 square feet with 10 feet on the longest side. Note: Care of Installation - As overspray of paint or other materials will, in time, accumulate on the detectors and discharge nozzles, making them inoperative or ineffective. It is required that the nozzle orifices be protected with "blow-off" caps on total-flood nozzles. January 2007 3-12 P/N 220423 System Design 3-4.2.2.2 Plenum Protection for the plenum is provided by the Duct/Plenum (DIP) nozzle, P/N 83-100006-001. This nozzle is to be centered in the plenum area and mounted at ceiling level, with the orifice tip pointed vertically down. The maximum distance from the plenum ceiling to the Duct/Plenum nozzle is 3.25 inches. One IND-70 or one IND-75 cylinder must use two Duct/Plenum nozzles. This nozzle will provide coverage for the plenum area of an open-face spray booth with maximum area of coverage of 31.5 square feet with the longest side of 10 feet. The maximum height is 10 feet. For plenum areas greater than 31.5 square feet or with a longest side greater. than 10 feet an additional Duct/Plenum nozzle is required. See Figures 3-7, 3-8, and 3-10. It is permissible to split the discharge from an IND-75 cylinder using Duct/Plenum nozzles in the plenum and exhaust duct. See Figures 3-7, and Figure 3-8.

Supplemental coverage of the exhaust duct must be provided for exhaust ducts greater than 15 feet (4572 mm) in length or those with obstructions or changes in direction. The IND-25 (BC) or IND-50 (BC) shall be used for supplemental exhaust duct coverage. Refer to Figure 3-9 for nozzle placement in ducts with changes of direction. Never place tin foil or plastic over nozzles. CAUTION Apply a thin coat of silicone grease on the outside surfaces of the thermostats. Fusible links must be changed at a minimum of every six months (more frequently if the link acquires a coating of paint or other materials). Clean the nozzles and detectors periodically to ensure there is no over-spray buildup on these parts; then re-grease or replace if necessary. S P/N 220423 3-15 January 2007 C S System Design 3-4.2.3 VENTILATION-SYSTEM SHUTDOWN It is not required that the exhaust fan be stopped upon Dry Chemical discharge. Exhaust-duct protection has been tested both with and without airflow. It is recommended that the exhaust fan stay running in the event of Dry Chemical discharge. This will help to remove smoke and other airborne materials and gases from the hazard area in the event of a fire. Check with the Authority Having Jurisdiction for local requirements. Forced (motorized fan) intake or make-up air shall be shutdown upon dry chemical discharge. 3-4.2.4 PIPING FOR OPEN-FACE SPRAY BOOTHS Piping diagrams include parameters on pipe length and fittings. System piping must be balanced. Balanced piping is the difference between the shortest actual pipe length from any 3/4-inch tee to nozzle, and the longest actual pipe length from any 3/4-inch tee to nozzle does not exceed 10% of the longest actual pipe length from any 3/4-inch tee to nozzle. Piping runs from the 1-inch tee to each of the 3/4-inch tees, and must be equal in length. The number and type of fittings for all tees to nozzles must be equal. All piping must be Schedule 40, hot-dipped-galvanized steel pipe, and all fittings must be, at a minimum, standard weight (150-lb. class). Examples of acceptable fitting materials include hot-dipped galvanized malleable iron, ductile iron, or steel. Couplings and unions may be used where necessary, and reducing bushings or reducing tees can be used for changes in pipe diameter. Note: Black steel pipe and fittings can be used in relatively noncorrosive atmospheres.

In a local-application system, the dry chemical is discharged directly on an unenclosed hazard through fixed nozzles connected to one or more cylinders. Local- application protection is designed to cover a fixed piece of equipment such as a dip tank or a process in an indoor location. The dry chemical can be locally applied either overhead with nozzles located over the hazard area, or in a tankside manner with nozzles located along the sides of a flammable or combustible liquid tank. The dry chemical is applied directly at and parallel to the surface of the flammable liquid, thus the dry chemical discharge is not affected by thermal updrafts. Regular, BC (sodium bicarbonate base) dry chemical is used on all local-application hazards involving flammable or combustible liquids in depth. Shut down process and ventilation in the event of a dry chemical system discharge. Note: For use only with IND-50 cylinder/valve assembly, P/N 486571. For indoor use only.

Experience has shown that it may take several minutes for detectors to actuate, and actuation is dependent upon: Fire intensity Temperature rating Spacing and location(s) In order to minimize delays in detector response time, it is necessary to conduct a temperature survey at all locations where detectors will be installed. The survey must be conducted under maximum operating conditions (i.e., at the highest operating temperatures and airflows) to determine the optimum exhaust airflow locations and record the peak temperatures that are expected to occur. Once the survey is completed, select the lowest temperature-rated detector that can be used. Refer to Table 3-22. Note: Make sure that the detectors are located in the exhaust airflow, not in dead air spaces. This will provide the fastest response. Table 3-22. Detector Temperature Ratings Detector Rating Maximum Exposure Temperature Part Number 165°F (74°C) 100°F (38°C) 282661 212°F (100°C) 150°F (65°C) 282662 360°F(182°C) 300°F(149°C) 282664 500°F (260°C) 440°F (226°C) 282666 A To avoid accidental system discharge, detectors must have an exposure temperature rating greater than the maximum peak survey temperatures CAUTION recorded. See Table 3-22 for detector maximum exposure temperatures. 3-5.2.2 DETECTOR SELECTION BASED DETECTOR SELECTION Where multiple detectors are used, they are connected to each other in series using 1/16-inch stainless steel cable to form a continuous chain as shown in Figure 3-29. Kidde Rapid-Response Thermo-Bulb detectors (KGR) can be spaced every 20 feet for smooth ceilings up to 10 feet high. Consult NFPA 72 for reductions in spacing for ceiling heights in excess of 10 feet, and for spacing guidelines when different ceiling arrangements are encountered. Note: For standard response mechanical detectors, Kidde requires reduction in spacing by 50%, or spacing every 10 ft. (3.1 m). Potential fire hazards and/or fire development scenarios may require closer detector spacings. Consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) in these situations.

It is likely that industrial applications involving flammable or combustible liquids will be enclosed within or surrounded by areas that will be classified as Class I or Class II, Division 1 or Division 2 locations. Dry Chemical system electrical components, such as thermostats, located within these areas shall be CAUTION rated for use in classified areas, and all wiring to these components shall conform to the provisions of NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, for Class I or Class II, Division 1, or Division 2 locations. Any industrial system control head with a microswitch is not suitable for use in a classified area. 3-5.3.1 THERMOSTAT SELECTION The thermostat must be heated to its setpoint temperature for automatic actuation to occur during a fire. Automatic actuation is dependent upon: Fire intensity Thermostat setpoint Thermostat spacing and location In order to minimize delays in thermostat response, it is imperative that a temperature survey be conducted at all locations where thermostats will be installed. The survey must be conducted under maximum operating conditions (i.e., at the highest operating temperatures and airflows) to determine the optimum exhaust airflow locations and record the peak temperatures that are expected to occur. Once the survey is completed: a. Select the thermostat with the lowest usable setpoint. . b. Make sure that there is approximately a 60°F to 100° F buffer between the thermostat setpoint and the maximum temperature obtained from the survey. January 2007 3-36 P/N 220423 System Design c. Make sure that the thermostats are located in the exhaust airflow, not in dead-air spaces. This will provide the fastest detector response. . 3-5.3.2 THERMOSTAT SPACING The number of thermostats required for a particular industrial application is a function of the size of the area being protected. Since the thermostat is an unpowered electrical component, there is no upper limit established for the maximum number of detectors that can be used for a given system. In practice, issues such as voltage drops caused by wiring resistance, impose certain parameters on the lengths of wiring that can be used. For applications that require control units, consult the appropriate control-unit installation manual for wiring parameters. When multiple thermostats are used, they are electrically connected in parallel. Thermostats are spaced every 20 feet for smooth ceilings up to 10-feet high. Consult NFPA 72 for reductions in spacing for ceiling heights in excess of 10 feet, and for spacing guidelines when different ceiling arrangements are encountered. 3-5.4 Other Detection Systems Although it is most common to use heat detectors for industrial fire protection systems, there may be some applications where another mode of detection, such as smoke, flame or radiation detection, is more appropriate. Any UL listed and/or FM approved detector may be used to actuate the extinguishing system, provided that the detector is appropriate to the type of combustibles involved, and is connected to a listed and compatible control unit. The control unit shall be tested, listed, and approved by UL and/or FM for releasing the Kidde IND Dry Chemical System. 0 0 P/N 220423 3-37 January 2007 System Design S THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.
