29、SION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover the construction and operation of xed pre-engineered dry chemical re extinguishing system units and xed automatic extinguisher units intended to be used in accordance with the Standard for Dry Chemical Extinguishing Systems, NFPA 17. 1.2
30、 Automatic extinguisher units do not have a manual means of operation and are intended to be used in accordance with the manufacturers installation instructions. Automatic extinguisher units are not intended for use as a substitute for pre-engineered dry chemical extinguishing system units, or for p
31、rotection of re risks larger than those specied in the manufacturers instructions for a single unit by using multiple units. 1.3 Pre-engineered dry chemical extinguishing system units covered by these requirements are intended to be used in the following re protection systems: a) Industrial Total Fl
32、ooding Protection System A system arranged to discharge dry chemical throughout the intended protected volume. See Fire Test Total Flooding Protection System, Section 26. b) Class B Local Application Protection System A system arranged to discharge dry chemical directly onto a specic area of protect
33、ion. This application of chemical is normally used where no xed enclosure exists or an extinguishing system is unable to totally ood the xed enclosure to achieve extinguishment. See Fire Test Class B Local Application Protection System, Section 27. c) Commercial Cooking Equipment Protection System A
34、 system arranged to discharge dry chemical onto cooking surfaces of cooking appliances and into hood and duct systems used for ventilation of commercial cooking appliances. See the Standard for Fire Testing of Fire Extinguishing Systems for Protection of Commercial Cooking Equipment, UL 300. d) Auto
35、mobile Service Station Fueling Area Protection System A system arranged to discharge dry chemical directly onto small spill res that originate and are maintained within the protected area. See Fire Test Automobile Service Station Fueling Area Protection System, Section 28. e) Open-Face Paint Spray B
36、ooth Protection System A system arranged to discharge dry chemical into paint spray working areas and into the plenum and duct systems used for ventilation of paint spraying operations. See Fire Test Open-Face Point Spray Booth Protection System, Section 29. f) Vehicle Paint Spray Booth A system arr
37、anged to discharge dry chemical into paint spray working areas and onto the plenum and duct systems used for ventilation of paint spraying operations. See Fire Test Vehicle Paint Spray Booth Protection System, Section 30. g) Off-the-Road Vehicle Protection System A system arranged to discharge dry c
38、hemical onto re risk areas and into volumes of vehicles such as aboveground mobile mining equipment, and mobile earthmoving equipment. See Fire Test Total Flooding Protection System, Section 26, and/or Fire Test Class B Local Application Protection System, Section 27, as applicable. 1.3 revised Janu

40、all comply with the requirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generally used in the products covered by this standard. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in t
41、he application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or
42、 restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions. 3 Units of Measurement 3.1 Values stated without parentheses are the requireme
43、nt. Values in parentheses are explanatory or approximate information. 3.2 Where these requirements reference extinguishing system unit or units, the requirements also apply to automatic extinguisher units unless specically noted otherwise. 4 Undated References 4.1 Any undated reference to a code or
44、standard appearing in the requirements of this standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 5 Glossary 5.1 For the purpose of these requirements, the following denitions apply. 5.2 AUTOMATIC EXTINGUISHER UNIT A unit that has no manual means of actuation
45、and discharges extinguishing agent upon thermal actuation is intended for use in a normally unoccupied space and is limited to a single protected area. 5.3 AUTOMOBILE SERVICE STATION FUELING AREA PROTECTION DEFINITIONS: a) ISLAND A raised portion of the service station protection area where the fuel
46、 dispensing devices are located. b) PARKING AREA The area immediately adjacent to the island where automobiles are parked for purposes of fueling. c) GROUNDSWEEP PROTECTION Protection that is achieved by nozzles that are installed near the ground and discharge dry chemical parallel to the protected
47、surface. FEBRUARY 21, 2013 PRE-ENGINEERED DRY CHEMICAL EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM UNITS - UL 1254 7UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 5.4 CYLINDER/VALVE ASSEMBLY A container that incorporates a valve and that provides storage of the e
48、xtinguishing agent and expellant gas until the valve is actuated. For cartridge operated units, this assembly includes the dry chemical storage container and cartridge mechanism. When actuated, the valve releases the agent into the distribution network of the extinguishing system. 5.5 DISCHARGE RATE
49、 The ratio of the quantity of agent discharged from a nozzle to the discharge time measured within 1 second. When a minimum discharge rate is indicated, reference is made to the minimum quantity of agent discharged and the time measured within 1 second. 5.6 DISCHARGE NOZZLE A device that is used to uniformly distribute the extinguishing agent over or into a specic area, or within a specic volume, or both. 5.7 DISCHARGE TIME The t
