Everyone responsible for fire protection of IT/telecommunications equipment, high value assets, or marine vessels needs
NFPA 2001: Standard on Clean Agent Extinguishing Systems to keep pace with the latest design and maintenance requirements plus complete facts on the different types of halogenated and inert gas extinguishing agents in use today.
Now featuring a reorganized, more user-friendly format, the 2018 edition of NFPA 2001 has essential requirements on how to properly purchase, design, install, test, inspect, approve, operate, and maintain engineered or pre-engineered gaseous agent fire suppression systems so they will function as intended when needed.
Revisions in the 2018 edition of NFPA 2001 help improve safety and reliability.
- Separate chapters on Installation Acceptance and Inspection, Servicing, Testing, Maintenance, and Training better define the application of inspection and testing requirements to new and existing systems.
- Integrated fire protection and life safety system testing must be conducted in accordance with NFPA 4: Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety System Testing.
- An egress time study is required for all clean agent systems, not just those where the design concentration is greater than the no observable adverse effects level (NOAEL).
- Dirt traps must be installed at the end of each pipe run.
Other changes include:
- Updated requirements for pipe and fittings
- A new section on pipe hangers and supports
- New requirements regarding releasing panels
- New and updated definitions
