2、ish Standard is the UK implementation of EN 12845:2015, incorporating corrigendum January 2016. It supersedes BS EN 12845:2004+A2:2009 which will be withdrawn on 31 December 2015.The start and finish of text introduced or altered by corrigendum is indicated in the text by tags.

3、orrigendum January 2016 is indicated in the text by .This revision of EN 12845 has taken some time in development and as a result, the UK committee feels it may not reflect current sprinkler technology and practice. National Annex NA identifies some areas of concern and also provides guidance and ma
4、terial related to UK practice.A sprinkler system designed, installed and maintained in accordance with this standard is capable of providing protection of property and for the safety of people, including firefighters, should a fire occur in sprinkler-protected premises.It should be noted that this s
5、tandard no longer uses the term life safety. For the avoidance of doubt and to clarify issues that have frequently arisen, when sprinkler systems are called for to satisfy national regulations, including any references to life safety, such requirements are now found in Annex F: Additional measures t
6、o improve system reliability and availability.It is anticipated that this annex will make it clear that additional equipment and facilities are usually only necessary to enhance system response or prevent the periodic closure of protected occupancies when a sprinkler system is impaired.Attention is
