22、ressures in excess of ambient atmospheric pressure and employed in medical installations for therapeutic purposes, in the following referred to as chambers. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only th

23、e edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 14931:2006, Pressure vessels for human occupancy (PVHO) Multi-place pressure chamber systems for hyperbaric therapy Performance, safety requirements and testing 3 Ter

24、ms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply: 3.1 fire extinguishing system system for active deployment of extinguishing medium inside the chamber in order to extinguish fire 3.2 extinguishing medium liquid or gas used to extinguish fire 3.3 nozzle

25、 mechanical device used to ensure dispersion of extinguishing medium inside the chamber with certain characteristics 4 Specific hazards regarding fire risks A fire, as a physical phenomenon, is significantly influenced by the ambient pressure, the partial pressure of oxygen and the confined space of

26、 the hyperbaric chamber. The rate of combustion will be directly related to ambient pressure and the oxygen level. In a hyperbaric environment with increased oxygen partial pressure, even materials thought to be non-combustible will burn fiercely. Owing to the confined space in the chamber, a fire w

27、ould cause a sudden increase of temperature and high concentration of toxic gases and smoke. If such a fire occurs, it shall be dealt with quickly and all personnel and patients shall be evacuated from the chamber. People suffering from breathing difficulties and burns shall be cared for (see Annex

28、B). 5 Performance and requirements 5.1 Fire extinguishing systems in hyperbaric chambers shall produce a specified extinguishing performance as stated in Clause 6. 5.2 Fire extinguishing systems shall suit the chambers maximum operational pressure. They shall fully protect all chamber compartments f

29、or human occupancy. DIN EN 16081:2014-04 EN 16081:2011+A1:2013 (E) 5 5.3 The fire extinguishing system shall be installed in such a way that the risk of physical injury to persons inside the chamber is as low as possible. 5.4 Fire extinguishing systems shall have a manual release. Independent activa

30、tion shall be possible from inside and outside the chamber. The release shall be easily accessible and protected against unintentional activation (e.g. safety button). For operation, see EN 14931:2006, 4.5.1. An additional automatic release is permitted if its suitability is proven for hyperbaric co

31、nditions up to the chambers maximum operational pressure and documented. 5.5 With both an automatic and manual release, a warning signal shall be heard at the control console. This warning signal may be temporarily muted, but there shall be no possibility to switch it off as long as the fire system

32、is active. 5.6 The extinguishing nozzles shall be installed in such a way that the required extinguishing effect is ensured for any sitting and lying place inside the chamber. A lying place is to be considered as minimum three sitting places in one line. NOTE The nozzles arrangement is stipulated by

33、 the manufacturer of the fire extinguishing system. He decides where and how many nozzles in accordance with seats or stretchers are to be placed. Other areas shall be covered in the seating height by the equivalent of at least 50% of the required extinguishing medium flow specified per seat (see 6.

34、2.14). This medium flow shall be delivered from nozzles of the same characteristic as in the test. 5.7 Pipes and hoses containing the extinguishing medium shall be made of suitable material concerning pressure and corrosion. For other pipes and hoses, see EN 14931:2006, 4.7.4. For shut off devices,

35、see EN 14931:2006, 4.2.15 5.8 Pipes and hoses of the fire extinguishing system shall be marked according to the medium and its function. Actuators (e.g. valves, press buttons and manual releases) shall be marked in such a way that they are distinguished from all other systems. For installation of pi

36、pes, see EN 14931:2006, 4.7.7. 5.9 The extinguishing medium tank shall be suitable for the intended pressure and protected against pressure exceeding the maximum allowable design pressure. The material of the tank shall be suitable for the extinguishing medium or shall be adequately protected agains

37、t corrosion. The extinguishing medium supply tank shall be equipped with a controllable level indicator and pressure gauge. The control console of the chamber shall indicate at least the status of the fire-extinguishing system (filling level, supply pressure). 5.10 Conveying of the extinguishing med

38、ium shall be done by pump system (positive-displacement pumps) or a pressure tank system each exclusive to the extinguishing system. 5.11 Within 2 s following the release of the fire extinguishing system the pressure build-up in the fire extinguishing system shall be realised and the extinguishing m

39、edium shall come out in the chamber. 5.12 The extinguishing medium flow shall automatically switch off before the extinguishing medium is exhausted to prevent any gas or liquid other than the extinguishing medium entering the compartment. Manual shutdown of the fire extinguishing system as well as r

40、epeated switching on by the chamber operator (outside) shall be possible at any given time. It shall be impossible to manually switch off the fire extinguishing system from inside the chamber. DIN EN 16081:2014-04 EN 16081:2011+A1:2013 (E) 6 5.13 The required supply of extinguishing medium shall be

41、calculated to ensure at least 1 min of extinguishing medium flow taking into account 5.6 and 6.2.14. 5.14 If extinguishing medium other than water of drinking water quality or distilled water is used, its safety to health shall be proven without additional (e.g. gas mask) measures. 5.15 Installation

42、 of the fire extinguishing system with all its components shall be protected against freezing. 5.16 Pressure vessels shall be designed, examined and marked according to the applicable standard. 5.17 Should an electric power supply be necessary for operating the fire extinguishing system, it shall be

43、 connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) as a back-up. 5.18 Fire extinguishing systems shall be labelled with a permanently readable and well visible type plate containing at least the following details: name or trade name and address of the manufacturer; type; working pressure; date of m

44、anufacturing and serial number; test interval; name of the organisation which performed the concept test. 5.19 Operating instructions of the fire extinguishing system shall be provided by the manufacturer according to EN 14931:2006, Clause 5. The manufacturer will propose a maintenance programme com

45、prising an annual test in order to verify the efficiency of the fire extinguishing system and in case of a wet test a purge of each part (nozzles included) of the fire extinguishing system. 6 Test requirements for fire extinguishing systems 6.1 A concept test consists of a hot test and a wet test. A

46、 third party certification is required for the concept test. For each type of fire-extinguishing system and parameters of the chamber, a fire test series (hot test) must be carried out in a test chamber according to specifications given in 6.2 under consideration of 6.3.4. The wet test is part of a

47、functioning and acceptance test of the installation of the fire extinguishing system to show that the items according to 6.3.2 are fulfilled, as well as the extinguishing means capacity and performance and the spray pattern of each system manufactured (acceptance test at the final installation at le

48、ast for the first system). The concept test will be certified by a third party certification organisation having the experience (qualified by education and training). The documentation of the test shall include at least: time from activation to start of deployment as well as the deployment time, supply pressure, leakage test of system, releasing points, direction and location of nozzles, function of nozzles and comparison with design documents. 6.2 Parameters and conditions of fire extinguishing tests (hot test). 6.2.1 Tests
