Condensed aerosol fire extinguishing systems -- Requirements and test methods for components and system design, installation and maintenance -- General requirements

Scope

This document specifies requirements and test methods for components and gives recommendations for the
design, installation, testing, maintenance and safety of condensed aerosol firefighting systems in buildings, plants
or other structures, and the characteristics of the extinguishants and types of fire for which they are a suitable
extinguishing medium. It covers total flooding systems primarily related to buildings, plant and other specific
applications, utilizing electrically non-conducting condensed aerosol fire extinguishants for which there are
sufficient data currently available to enable validation of performance characteristics by an appropriate independent
authority.

Local applications of condensed aerosol extinguishing systems are not covered by this document. Any local
applications require a pre-engineered and pre-designed system that shall be tested and approved for a specific
application by a relevant authority.
