12 1 of 34 9/2/2015 1:23 PM Develop test standards for manual suppression, arc testing and use of extinguishers. Consideration for conductivity should be limited to agents that pool. Shugarman, Blake M. This material is extracted from ANSI/NFPA 10 and should be identified as such. In addition, the provisions of ANSI/NFPA 10 apply to the selection, installation, inspection, maintenance, recharging, and testing of portable fire extinguishers and Class D extinguishing agents. It is clear that water-based portable fire extinguishers used to comply with ANSI/NFPA 10 shall be listed and labeled and shall meet or exceed all the applicable requirements of ANSI/UL 711 (CAN/ULC-S508) fire test standard and the performance standard ANSI/UL 8 (CAN/ULC-S554), Water Based Agent Fire Extinguishers. Extinguishers listed for the Class C rating shall not contain an agent that is a conductor of electricity when tested in accordance with ASTM D 5391, Standard Test for Electrical Conductivity and Resistivity of a Flowing High Purity Water Sample. Fire extinguishers containing water-based agents that have a conductivity higher than 1.00 microsiemens/cm at 25 C (77 F) shall be considered a conductor of electricity and therefore shall not be rated Class C. [ANSI/NFPA 10]
13 2 of 34 9/2/2015 1:23 PM First Revision No. 10-NFPA 18A-2015 [ New Section after ] Hazards. Water additives shall be listed for one or more of the following applications: (1) Fuel handling coal storage (2) Fuel handling coal silo, bunkers, hoppers (3) Fuel handling coal dust collector (4) Fuel handling coal conveyor (5) Boiler front: multiple oil-fired burners/igniters (6) Regenerative air heaters (7) Flue gas bag type dust collectors (8) Transformer rectifier sets (9) Hydraulic control systems (10) Turbine generator area (11) Lubricating oil lines (12) Lubricating oil reservoirs and handling equipment (13) Turbine generator bearings (14) Emergency generators (15) Auxiliary boilers (16) Oil-filled transformer (17) Tire storage (18) Pressurized oil spray (19) Manual fire fighting operations (20) Flammable liquid rack storage (21) Aircraft (group III hangars) (22) Aircraft (manual suppression of pool fuel fires) (23) Hay and straw (24) Exposure protection (25) Energized electrical cable (26) Other applications as tested and as approved by the authority having jurisdiction Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Jacqueline Wilmot Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Wed Apr 29 11:02:14 EDT 2015
14 3 of 34 9/2/2015 1:23 PM Committee Statement Committee Statement: The standard has lacked appropriate specific applications for water additives. These applications have been identified by industry users. Ballot Results This item has passed ballot 10 Eligible Voters 1 Not Returned 8 Affirmative All 0 Affirmative with Comments 1 Negative with Comments 0 Abstention Not Returned Tinsley, Jr., Robert E. Affirmative All Brandao, Armand V. Browder, Tracy Foster, Brian R. Groden, Walter Halpin III, Gerald J. Johnson, Cecilia W. Shugarman, Blake M. Wang, Qingsheng Negative with Comment Greiner, Michael T. No other agent standard has specific listing criteria to a specific application. For example, in NFPA 11, Foam, if you pass UL 162 Class B Test you are a foam and therefore lised and designed for all applications within NFPA 11. In NFPA 18A we already have qualification/listing test for Class A and Class B, Class B 3D. Once an agent passes those tests, how is the agent designed? This is the information that needs to go into this section rather than listing on each applications. For example, plain water is already used to extinguish hay and straw, we have several class A fire tests hat document the Water Additive performs better than water.
15 4 of 34 9/2/2015 1:23 PM First Revision No. 12-NFPA 18A-2015 [ Section No ] 4.2.5* Class C Fires. Water additive solution shall have the same limitations as water with respect to extinguishing fires involving energized electrical equipment solutions shall be evaluated for use on Class C fires in accordance with Chapter 8. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Jacqueline Wilmot Organization: [ Not Specified ] Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Wed Apr 29 11:38:36 EDT 2015 Committee Statement Committee Statement: The modification of Section addresses the addition of testing for Class C suitability.

Affirmative All Brandao, Armand V. Browder, Tracy Foster, Brian R. Greiner, Michael T. Groden, Walter Halpin III, Gerald J. Wang, Qingsheng Affirmative with Comment Johnson, Cecilia W. This statement appears to require that ALL water additives be evaluated for use on Class C fires. The evaluation should be based on the applications specified by the supplier, i.e. if the supplier is seeking evaluation only for
16 5 of 34 9/2/2015 1:23 PM Class A and Class B fires, that should be allowed. Negative with Comment Shugarman, Blake M. Since ANSI/NFPA 18A (section 9.1.1) permits the use of water additive concentrate complying with ANSI/NFPA 18A to be used with standard equipment provided said equipment is primarily designed to utilize water or foam as a medium of fire control and extinguishment, the information should remain as currently published: "Water additive solution shall have the same limitations as water with respect to extinguishing fires involving energized electrical equipment."
17 First Revision No. 19-NFPA 18A-2015 [ New Section after ] Alternate Viscosity Test Methods Where the preferred method does not provide usable results, an alternative test method shall be permitted Where an alternative test method is used, the method and test conditions shall be documented and reported with the reported results.

25 NFPA 18A FR-13 A.6.4 Deep Seated Fire Test. The Class A coal fire represents a challenging deep seated fire with real life applications. For example, stored coal is subject to self-heating and potential combustion. The resulting fires are deep seated and difficult to extinguish. During these tests, water and representative additives would be applied to the top of a suspended drum containing the coal fire. The flow rate of the water or water plus additive would be varied over successive tests utilizing a bracketing technique to determine the minimum flow rate required to extinguish the fire within 2 minutes of the start of the agent application. Test Apparatus. This apparatus consists of a 208 L (55 gal) steel drum suspended 25 cm (10 in) above a water collection pan. The top and bottom of the drum will be removed with a screen supported with an angle iron cross brace installed on the bottom of the drum to support the coal. The 10 cm (4 in) gap between the elevation of the lip of the pan and the bottom of the drum will allow for the free flow air to supply the fuel combustion and to allow the water or water with additive to drain from the drum. The drum would be filled with coal to a level 10 cm (4 in) from the top of the drum. The space at the top of the drum would prevent the overflow of the water or water with additive from the top of the drum. The coal to be utilized for these tests should come from the same source for all of the tests to be conducted to ensure that the variation in coal supply does not influence the evaluation. A consistent coal size should be used; for example, a range of 0.8 to 1.4 cm (0.3 to 0.6 in) Buck size. The coal pile would be ignited with a tubular heater inserted 20 cm (8 in) from the bottom of the coal layer. Thermocouples would be inserted into the coal to monitor the coal combustion. The water or water with additive would be discharged from a pressurized 75 L (20 gal) tank. A quarter turn ball valve on the tank outlet would control the flow of the agent. The agent would flow from the tank and discharge onto the top of the coal pile from a nozzle suspended 27 cm (11 in) above the top of the coal pile with a nozzle with a 90 full cone pattern. If a nozzle with a different spray pattern is used, then the height of the nozzle will be adjusted to achieve full coverage over the top surface of the coal pile. The tank would be pressurized with nitrogen utilizing a commercial nitrogen cylinder with a pressure regulator installed on the outlet of the cylinder. The square water collection pan would have nominal dimensions of 71 cm (28 in) on a side with a depth of 15 cm (6 in) designed to contain the maximum of 75 L (20 gal) of water to be discharged during a test. The apparatus is shown in Figure A.6.4.
26 Figure A.6.4 Deep Seated Fire Test Apparatus. (Source: Scheffey, et al., 2013) Test Procedure. 1. The steel drum would be filled with coal to a level 10 cm (4 in) from the top of the drum and the tubular heater connected to the power supply. 2. The agent tank would be filled with water or water plus additive and pressurized with nitrogen. The outlet of the tank would be connected to the discharge piping leading to the desired nozzle. The water collection pan would be located below the steel drum. 3. The tubular heater would be energized and the thermocouples monitored for signs of combustion. The application of the water or water with additive would be started 1 minute after the observation of visible smoke above the coal pile. 4. The water application would be stopped and the test concluded when there are no signs of continued combustion (smoke or raised temperatures). 5. The duration of the water application and the application rate would be recorded. 6. The steel drum and the water collection pan would then be emptied and dried in preparation for the next test. Test Results. The minimum application rate required to cause extinguishment would be determined utilizing a bracketing technique. The determined application rate requirements determined for the additives could then be compared to that required for water alone to illustrate the performance enhancement due to the use of the additive.
27 The primary challenge in using this apparatus is maintaining a consistent coal sizing through successive tests. Previous tests by the U.S. Coast Guard [Schultz, et al., 1990] have shown that penetration of the suppression agent throughout the pile is a key to effectiveness and is affected by the size of the coal briquettes utilized.

The test pan should be self-leveling such that the free-board height remains relatively constant throughout the test. An elbow and pipe connected to the bottom of the pan should drain off the leveling water as fuel from the cascade and water from the sprinklers accumulates in the pan. Initially the pan should incorporate 0.25 gal of heptane on top of the diesel as an accelerant to increase flame spread across the pool. The test apparatus should be a cascade array, consisting of five inclined trays mounted above a 3.25 ft square pan. The fuel should be discharged onto the top tray and allowed to flow down that tray to the tray below, which should be inclined in the opposite direction. Fuel should be discharged through a two pipe manifold; the top most pipe should be connected to the fuel supply at one end and to the bottom pipe by three vertical pipes, one at the center and one near each end. The three connections are intended to balance the flow to the bottom pipe. A slit, 0.25 in. wide and 2.0 ft long, in the bottom pipe allows the fuel to flow evenly onto the tray below. The fuel should flow successively down each of the inclined trays prior to reaching the bottom pan. The bottom pan should have a notch cut in the front of the pan to facilitate the flow of the fuel to the larger containment pan. The bottom pan of the fuel cascade should be initially filled with 1.0 in. of water and 1.2 gal of diesel, with 0.05 gal of heptane as an accelerant. The cascade apparatus should be centered within the containment pan. The containment pan should be filled with 2 in. of water. A fuel flow rate of 2 gpm should be used. The flow rate through the fuel system should be measured using a flow meter. Figure A.7.5(a) and Figure A.7.5(b) show general layouts of the test area and test setup.
33 Figure A.7.5(a) Cascade Array. (Source: Scheffey et al, 2013)
34 Figure A.7.5(b) Test Setup. (Source: Scheffey et al, 2013) A modified UL 162 sprinkler test should be used for this test. The parameters are as follows: Test pan 50 ft 2 (7.07 ft x 7.07 ft) Nozzle height 15 ft to centerline of piping Sprinkler grid 4 sprinklers located near the corners of the pan Cascade apparatus centered in 50 ft 2 test pan Test Procedure. 1. Ignite the fuel in the cascade pan. 2. One minute after full- involvement of the pan, initiate the fuel flow to the cascade. 3. Thirty seconds after full-involvement of the cascade as determined by visual observation, begin application of the water with additive. 4. Stop the sprinkler system flow after the fire is extinguished or a minimum five minute application period has been completed, whichever comes first. Test Results. The following criteria should be applied to determine successful extinguishment: (a) no trays burning, fire just in cascade pan; or (b) if bottom cascade pan extinguished, fire on just one tray.
