Worldwide Contacts www.tyco-fire.com S uct eluge System For The Protection of Ventilation uctwork Handling Corrosive Gases General escription The TYCO S uct eluge System is designed specifically for the protection of ventilation ductwork handling corrosive gases, including extremely corrosive gases as defined in FM Property Loss Prevention ata Sheet 7-78. The S System features the TYCO N-5 Corrosion Resistant uct, which is an open (non automatic) directional spray nozzle, and also includes the TYCO Red-E Cabinet, Protectowire linear heat detection, and FlexHead duct mounting hardware. The S System is capable of achieving fire suppression and potential extinguishment in ventilation ductwork constructed of plastic material. The S System benefits include limiting down-time due to fire damage and routine inspection and maintenance. Ventilation ductwork handling extremely corrosive environments may be encountered in the following industrial settings: Steel Manufacturing Copper Mineral Processing Lead Mineral Processing Zinc Mineral Processing Coal Power Generation Semiconductor Fabrication Pulp & Paper Facilities CUTION This system is unique in its intent and design. nyone involved at any level must thoroughly understand the limitations and capabilities of such systems. The S System described herein must be installed and maintained in compliance with this document, FM Global Property Loss Prevention ata Sheets, the applicable standards of the National Fire Protection ssociation, in addition to the standards of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair the performance of this system. The owner is responsible for maintaining their fire protection system and devices in proper operating condition. Contact the installing contractor or product manufacturer with any questions. pprovals & pplication Criteria The components of the TYCO S uct eluge System are Factory Mutual (FM) pproved for use in extremely corrosive environments. The S System is intended for use in plastic ventilation ductwork constructed of Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), or Polypropylene (PP), which may be circular, rectangular, or irregular in shape. uct diameter or width may range from 1 ft. to 16 ft. Protection Objectives The TYCO S uct eluge System is intended to reduce fire hazards inherent in industrial exhaust systems and prevent fire spread via these systems, whether within buildings or between adjacent buildings. The S System components are capable of withstanding environments in which extremely corrosive gases may be present, including but not limited to: Hydrochloric acid (HCL) Hydrofluoric acid (HF) Sulfuric cid (H2SO4) Nitric cid (HNO3) Sulfur ioxide (SO2) Page 1 of 6 PRIL 2016 TFP870

Install a Type N-5 Corrosion Resistant uct at the top of every vertical run of duct, as close as possible to the transition from vertical to horizontal. The maximum continuous operating temperature should not exceed 302 F (150 C). TBLE S ELUGE SYSTEM COMPONENTS etection Placement Install a loop of Protectowire linear heat detection cable inside the duct at the same maximum spacing as the nozzles. Locate the loops within 3 ft. (0,9 m) of the nozzles. Refer to Figure 1 for placement details and Figure 5 for installation details. Install a loop of Protectowire linear heat detection cable at the top of every vertical run of duct, as close as possible to the transition from vertical to horizontal. Water elivery Water delivery time (from initial detector activation to full discharge from all nozzles) is not to exceed one minute. Refer to FM ata Sheet 7-78 for further detail.

Step 1. With pipe-thread sealant applied to nozzle pipe threads, hand tighten nozzle into Mounting Block until the O-Ring makes contact with the Mounting Block Sealing Surface, then continue hand tightening the nozzle another 1/4 to 1/2 turn. CUTION o not hand tighten more than 1/4 to 1/2 turn once the Type N-5 is seated to the Mounting Block Sealing Surface. Over-tightening may result in equipment failure. Use of a metal wrench when installing the Type N-5 may damage the nozzle coating and decrease the nozzle corrosion resistance. Step 2. Ensure Type N-5 O-Ring is firmly seated between and Mounting Block Sealing Surface. Correctly installed O-Ring forms a seal around the Type N-5 pipe threads. Step 3. Ensure Blow-Off Plug is fully seated into nozzle waterway. Care and Maintenance The TYCO S uct eluge System must be maintained and serviced in accordance with this section. Before closing a fire protection system control valve for inspection or maintenance work, obtain permission to shut down the affected fire protection system from the proper authorities and notify all personnel who may be affected by this action. Exercise care to avoid damage to the TYCO S uct eluge System components before, during, and after installation. Replace components damaged by improper handling, dropping, striking, or the like. Water spray systems for fire protection service require regularly scheduled care and maintenance by trained personnel. It is recommended that TYCO S uct eluge System components be inspected six months after installation. Inspect components located in
