Principle of Operation The Pyro-Chem FM-200® valve is a high-flow-rate device specially designed for fire protection use. Operation is by means of a pressure-differential piston. Tank pressure is used within the valve to create a positive force on the piston, sealing the valve closed. Operation of the valve occurs when the upper chamber is vented faster than the 'make up device' in the shuttle can replace the pressure. Thereby allowing the shuttle to be forced up, and free flow of FM-200® from the valve. Upper chamber pressure is released by the electrical, mechanical or pneumatic actuator. Valve Assembly The Pyro-Chem designed and manufactured tank valve is the result of extensive research and development and incorporates many unique safety features. The valve assembly is factory-fitted to the tank and is supplied pre-assembled with a low pressure switch, pressure gauge and burst disc. UL EX 4986 November 1, 2001 Rev. 2 9 SECTION 2 – SYSTEM COMPONENTS ® The valve incorporates the following features: • A pressure operated safety release device (burst disc). • Main outlet, fitted with safety shipping cap. • A connection for a pneumatic or mechanical actuator, fitted with safety cap. • A connection for an electrical solenoid. • A connection for the pneumatic pilot signal output used for multiple tank operation. Low Pressure Switch A low pressure warning switch is fitted to every tank and must be utilized to safeguard the warranty requirements. The device continuously monitors the tank pressure and in the event of the pressure dropping below 290 psi (20 bar) the switch operates to enable the condition to be signalled to a control unit. 004836 Burst Disc A burst disc is factory fitted to every valve assembly. It is designed to rupture when the tank becomes over pressurized when subjected to temperatures above the designed storage temperature of the tank.

Nitrogen in the tank maintains a superpressurization of 360 psi (25 bar) at 70 °F (21 °C). providing the increased propulsion necessary to discharge the FM-200® from the tank. the velocity of the mixture will be high enough to maintain highly turbulent flow. Flexible discharge hoses and check valves must be used at each inlet. there will be a short transition period followed by the delivery of the remaining FM-200® nitrogen mixture as a vapor. This addition of nitrogen. Trailing Vapor Pressure Discharge time is defined as the average liquid discharge time through all nozzles in the system. the remaining portion of the nitrogen will remain in the vapor space above the liquid. This is due to flashing of the trailing edge of the fluid as it moves from the tank to the nozzles. there is a risk that the system will not supply the designed quantity of extinguishing agent. The ambient temperature of the storage area must be between 32 °F to 120 °F (0 °C to 49 °C). Temperatures other than 70 °F (21 °C) may result in variations in system discharge characteristics. leading to alternate discharges of liquid and vapor (slugging) or layering of the two phases.SECTION 3 – SYSTEM DESIGN ® Agent Storage FM-200® is stored as a liquified compressed gas in appropriate tanks to meet DOT4BW450 or DOT4BW500 requirements. Agent tanks must be located in a single row and spaced according to section. 1 . when the mixture contacts the pipeline walls. Initial Vapor Discharge At the instant the discharge valve is opened. the pipeline must be properly sized to keep the FM-200® flow turbulent enough to prevent phase separation. the optimum temperature being 70 °F (21 °C). 3.

By measuring the air flow required. A cool chemical smoke or other air current indicator is used to detect the approximate size and location of leaks. outlining the testing method and principles involved. Slab to Slab Walls The only major limitation is that it cannot be used to accurately predict a retention time if the perimeter walls do not extend from slab to slab. BCLA and static pressures have been measured. The formula is derived from a standard engineering/fluid dynamics principle. Having established that any outstanding works are completed prior to the test date. it becomes possible to calculate the ELA. and that the relevant people have been informed. For a total flooding suppression system to be effective. This is called the Below Ceiling Leakage Area. Predicting Retention Time Once the ELA. Below Ceiling Leakage Area (BCLA) Experience has shown that leakage above a suspended ceiling has a negligible effect on the FM-200® concentration. and then blowing air into the enclosure (pressurization). the design concentration must be achieved and then maintained for at least ten minutes. The only method of testing the agent retention within the protected area is to verify the integrity of the enclosure by applying proven test procedures. proving system performance and removing the need for actual FM-200® discharge. which has been used in the energy conservation field for over 25 years. The enclosure integrity test has been developed to locate the source of leaks and. 1 43 . The rate at which FM-200® is lost is therefore primarily governed by the leakage below the floor. from the data collected. Equivalent Leakage Area (ELA) The test to measure the ELA is conducted by blowing air into or out of the enclosure to develop the same pressure differential as would be created by the discharging FM-200®. FM-200® tends to escape from leaks in the lower part of the enclosure due to the weight of the mixture above it. advise all interested parties in writing. the next step is to calculate the retention time of the enclosure. gaps and holes in the enclosure. UL EX 4986 April 2.SECTION 6 – INTEGRITY TESTING ® Introduction The hazard integrity is the ability to retain the discharged FM-200®. Like water leaking from the holes in the bottom of a swimming pool. The enclosure will almost invariably fail due to extensive leakage through the ceiling tiles. The result of the calculation is the number of minutes it takes for the FM-200®/air interface to reach the minimum protected height required. It has three basic components as follows: • An adjustable panel that fits in the doorway of the protected area • A calibrated fixed speed fan • A variable speed fan The pressure created by the door fan causes the air to move through leaks in the enclosure at high speed making it easy to pinpoint where leaks exist. Principle The test is conducted with a device known as a door fan. Coordination and Planning It should only be necessary to conduct one integrity test. if necessary. In order to determine with any degree of confidence that the hazard area will hold the gas for the required time period. is then averaged. and walls beneath the ceiling. which is the total of all cracks. The leakage measurement achieved by taking air out of the enclosure (depressurization). where necessary an Enclosure Integrity Test in accordance with NFPA 2001 Appendix C must be conducted. predict the retention time. The enclosure and immediate surrounding area is initially examined visually to assess the readiness for testing. A door fan unit is installed in the designated test door in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Where voids are protected by FM-200®. tiles are removed to ensure a uniform air flow. If the measurement is unduly high its causes are ascertained and if possible permanently reduced or eliminated. etc. Ventilation. no additional agent is required. Total Enclosure Leakage Method. Readings of the pressure difference between the enclosure. However if the air-conditioning unit is left running. or a number of fans. The enclosure is put in the state it would be in prior to a discharge. e. The duct volume between the hazard and the damper must be added to the overall volume. The gauges are zeroed by taking them to full scale deflection and holding for approximately ten seconds. It is not necessary to shut down the unit prior to a discharge as the mixing effect is beneficial. The volume of the enclosure is confirmed and the highest equipment measured to ascertain the required level for retention time. The below ceiling leakage area is then calculated and used in conjunction with the ELA to predict a revised retention time. the unit should be shut down and/or dampers operated to close the ducts. as close as possible to the area. before discharge occurs. 2001 . Using an adequate range on one fan. and then the procedure is repeated in the pressurization mode. The volumes above and below the false ceiling are depressurized to the same extent but using separate fans. the existence of any attached spaces that could affect the results. a depleting concentration rather than a descending FM-200®/air interface will be formed. 44 Rev. a pressure difference of between column pressure and column pressure plus 30% is created. is then recorded. ventilation system shut down.

This is carried out for both pressurization and depressurization modes. Therefore the enclosure should be over-gassed to obtain the required ten minute retention time at minimum concentration. therefore. This procedure is used to improve the accuracy of the predicted retention time where a reasonable air-tight ceiling exists. but with all openings closed. a measurement of any pressure difference between the enclosure and the relief area is made. All doors outside the area that are required to be open for the test are wedged open with suitable signs posted to advise personnel. Door Fan Installation. Leak paths through the ceiling may be temporarily sealed. The total equivalent leakage area and the predicted retention time is calculated. Suspended Ceiling Leakage Neutralization Method.
