2.1. CLASSIFICATION OF PIPELINES
2.1.1. Pipelines with a pressure of up to 10 MPa (100 kgf / cm2) inclusively, depending on the hazard class of the transported substance (explosion, fire hazard and hazard) are divided into groups (A, B, C) and depending on the operating parameters of the environment (pressure and temperature) - into five categories (I, II, III, IV, V). The classification of pipelines is shown in table 1.
From table 1: Category of pipelines - V; Group B, Hard-combustible (TG) and non-combustible substances (NG), P-calc., MPa (kgf / cm2) - up to 1.6 (16), t_calcul., C - from - 40 to 120.
Conclusion: pipelines of automatic installations of water (sprinkler) fire extinguishing belong to the V category of pipelines, therefore, the quality of welded seams is limited by the implementation of operational control clause 4.8 of SNIP 3.05.05-84.
No one doubts that water is the most famous extinguishing agent. The element that resists fire has a number of advantages, such as high specific heat capacity, latent heat of vaporization, chemical inertness to most substances and materials, availability and low cost.
However, along with the advantages of water, one should also take into account its disadvantages, namely, low wetting ability, high electrical conductivity, insufficient adhesion to the extinguishing object, and also, importantly, causing significant damage to the building.
Extinguishing a fire from a fire hose with a direct stream is not the best way to fight a fire, since most of the water does not participate in the process, only the fuel is cooled, sometimes the flame can be blown out. It is possible to increase the efficiency of extinguishing the flame by spraying water, but this will increase the cost of obtaining mist and its delivery to the fire site. In our country, a stream of water, depending on the arithmetic mean diameter of the droplets, is divided into atomized (droplet diameter over 150 microns) and finely atomized (less than 150 microns).
Why is water spraying so effective? With this method of extinguishing, the fuel is cooled by diluting the gases with water vapor; in addition, a fine-atomized jet with a droplet diameter of less than 100 microns is capable of cooling the chemical reaction zone itself.
To increase the penetrating power of water, so-called water solutions with wetting agents are used. Additives are also used:
- water-soluble polymers to increase adhesion to a burning object ("viscous water");
- polyoxyethylene to increase the throughput of pipelines ("slippery water", abroad "fast water");
- inorganic salts to improve the extinguishing efficiency;
- antifreeze and salt to reduce the freezing point of water.
Do not use water to extinguish substances that enter into chemical reactions with it, as well as toxic, flammable and corrosive gases. Such substances are many metals, organometallic compounds, metal carbides and hydrides, hot coal and iron. Thus, under no circumstances use water, as well as aqueous solutions with the following materials:
- organoaluminum compounds (explosion reaction);
- organolithium compounds; lead azide; alkali metal carbides; hydrides of a number of metals - aluminum, magnesium, zinc; calcium, aluminum, barium carbides (decomposition with the release of combustible gases);
- sodium hydrosulfite (spontaneous combustion);
- sulfuric acid, termites, titanium chloride (strong exothermic effect);
- bitumen, sodium peroxide, fats, oils, petrolatum (increased combustion as a result of emission, splashing, boiling).
Also, do not use jets to extinguish dust in order to avoid the formation of an explosive atmosphere. Also, when extinguishing oil products, spreading, splashing of a burning substance can occur.
Installations of water, foam low expansion, as well as water fire extinguishing with a wetting agent are divided into:
- Sprinkler installations used for local fire extinguishing and cooling of building structures. They are usually used in rooms where a fire can develop with the release of a large amount of heat.
- Deluge installations are designed to extinguish a fire over the entire specified area, as well as create a water curtain. They irrigate the source of fire in the protected area, receiving a signal from fire detection devices, which allows you to eliminate the cause of the fire in the early stages, faster than sprinkler systems.
These fire extinguishing installations are the most common. They are used to protect warehouses, shopping centers, premises for the production of hot natural and synthetic resins, plastics, rubber products, cable ropes, etc. Modern terms and definitions in relation to water AUP are given in NPB 88-2001.
The installation contains a water source 14 (external water supply), a main water pipe (working pump 15) and an automatic water feeder 16. The latter is a hydropneumatic tank (hydropneumatic tank), which is filled with water through a pipeline with a valve 11.
For example, the installation diagram contains two different sections: a water-filled section with a control unit (UU) 18 under the pressure of a water feeder 16 and an air section with UU 7, the supply 2 and distribution pipelines of which are filled with compressed air. Air is pumped by compressor 6 through check valve 5 and valve 4.
The sprinkler installation is activated automatically when the room temperature rises to the set level. The fire detector is the thermal lock of the sprinkler sprinkler (sprinkler). The presence of the lock ensures the sealing of the sprinkler outlet. At the beginning, the sprinklers located above the source of fire are turned on, as a result of which the pressure in the distribution 1 and supply 2 wires drops, the corresponding control unit is triggered and water from the automatic water feeder 16 through the supply pipeline 9 is supplied for extinguishing through the opened sprinklers. The fire signal is generated by the 8 UU signaling device. The control device 12, upon receiving a signal, turns on the working pump 15, and if it fails, the backup pump 13. When the pump reaches the set operating mode, the automatic water feeder 16 is turned off using the check valve 10.
Let's take a closer look at the features of the deluge installation:
It does not contain a thermal lock, like a sprinkler one, therefore it is equipped with additional fire detection devices.
Automatic start-up provides a stimulating pipeline 16, which is filled with water under the pressure of the auxiliary water feeder 23 (for unheated premises compressed air is used instead of water). For example, in the first section to the pipeline 16 stimulating and starting valves 6 are connected, which in the initial state are closed using a cable with thermal locks 7. In the second section, distribution pipelines with sprinkler sprinklers are connected to a similar pipeline 16.
The outlets of the deluge sprinklers are open, so the supply 11 and distribution 9 pipelines are filled with atmospheric air (dry pipes). The supply pipeline 17 is filled with water under the pressure of the auxiliary water feeder 23, which is a hydraulic pneumatic tank filled with water and compressed air. The air pressure is monitored using an electrocontact manometer 5. In this image, an open reservoir 21 is selected as the water source of the installation, water from which is taken by pumps 22 or 19 through a pipeline with a filter 20.
UU 13 of the drencher installation contains a hydraulic drive, as well as a pressure indicator 14 of the SDU type.
The installation is automatically turned on as a result of the actuation of sprinkler sprinklers 10 or destruction of thermal locks 7, the pressure drops in the stimulating pipeline 16 and the hydraulic drive unit UU 13. The UU 13 valve opens under water pressure in the supply pipeline 17. Water flows to the deluge sprinklers and irrigates the room protected installation section.
The manual start of the deluge installation is carried out using a ball valve 15. The sprinkler installation cannot be switched on automatically, because unauthorized water supply from fire extinguishing systems will cause great damage to the protected premises in the absence of a fire. Consider a sprinkler installation scheme that eliminates such false alarms:
The installation contains sprinkler sprinklers on the distribution pipeline 1, which under operating conditions is filled with compressed air to a pressure of about 0.7 kgf / cm2 using a compressor 3. The air pressure is controlled by an indicator 4, which is installed in front of the check valve 7 with a drain valve 10.
The UU of the installation contains a valve 8 with a shut-off element membrane type, a pressure or liquid flow indicator 9, as well as a valve 15. Under operating conditions, the valve 8 is closed by the pressure of water, which enters the starting pipeline of the valve 8 from the water source 16 through the open valve 13 and the throttle 12. The starting pipeline is connected to the manual start valve 11 and drain valve 6, equipped with an electric drive. The installation also contains technical means (TS) of automatic fire alarm (APS) - fire detectors and a control panel 2, as well as a starting device 5.
The pipeline between valves 7 and 8 is filled with air at a pressure close to atmospheric, which ensures the operability of the shut-off valve 8 (main valve).
Mechanical damage, which can cause a leakage of the distribution pipeline of the installation or the thermal lock, will not cause water supply, because valve 8 is closed. When the pressure in the pipeline 1 drops to 0.35 kgf / cm2, the signaling device 4 generates an alarm signal about the malfunction (depressurization) of the distribution pipeline 1 of the installation.
False triggering of the APS will also not trigger the system. The control signal from the APS will electrically open the drain valve 6 on the start line of the shut-off valve 8, as a result of which the latter will open. The water will enter the distribution pipeline 1, where it will stop in front of the closed thermal locks of the sprinkler sprinklers.
When designing AUVP, TS APS are chosen so that the inertia of the sprinkler sprinklers is higher. This is done for that. So that in the event of a fire, the APS TS would work earlier and open the shut-off valve 8. Then, water will flow into pipeline 1 and fill it. This means that by the time the sprinkler is triggered, the water is already in front of it.
It is important to clarify that the first alarm signal from the APS allows you to quickly eliminate small fires with primary fire extinguishing means (such as fire extinguishers).
The source of the water supply for the system is a water supply system, a fire reservoir or a reservoir.
2.2.2. Water feeders
In accordance with NPB 88-2001, the main water feeder ensures the operation of the fire extinguishing installation with a given pressure and flow rate of water or aqueous solution during the estimated time.
A water supply source (water supply, reservoir, etc.) can be used as the main water supply if it can provide the design flow rate and water pressure for the required time. Before the main water feeder enters the operating mode, the pressure in the pipeline is automatically provided auxiliary water feeder... As a rule, this is a hydropneumatic tank (hydropneumatic tank), which is equipped with float and safety valves, level sensors, visual level gauges, pipelines for releasing water when extinguishing a fire, devices for creating the required air pressure.
The automatic water feeder provides the pressure in the pipeline, which is necessary for the actuation of the control units. Such a water feeder can be water pipelines with the required guaranteed pressure, a hydropneumatic tank, a jockey pump.
2.2.3. Control unit (CU) is a combination of pipeline fittings with shut-off and signaling devices and measuring instruments. They are intended for starting the fire-fighting installation and monitoring its performance; they are located between the supply and supply pipelines of the installations.
Control nodes provide:
- water supply (foam solutions) for extinguishing fires;
- filling supply and distribution pipelines with water;
- drainage of water from supply and distribution pipelines;
- compensation for leaks from hydraulic system AUP;
- checking the alarm about their activation;
- alarm when the alarm valve is triggered;
- pressure measurement before and after the control unit.
Thermal lock as part of a sprinkler sprinkler, it is triggered when the temperature in the room rises to a predetermined level.
The thermosensitive element here are fusible or explosive elements, such as glass bulbs. Also, locks with an elastic "shape memory" element are being developed.
The principle of operation of the lock with the use of a fusible element is to use two metal plates welded with low-melting solder, which loses strength when the temperature rises, as a result of which the lever system goes out of balance and opens the sprinkler valve.
But the use of a fusible element has a number of disadvantages, such as the susceptibility of the low-melting element to corrosion, as a result of which it becomes brittle, and this can lead to spontaneous operation of the mechanism (especially under vibration conditions).
Therefore, sprinklers using glass flasks are increasingly being used now. They are easy to manufacture, resistant to external influences, prolonged exposure to temperatures close to nominal does not affect their reliability in any way, they are resistant to vibration or sudden pressure fluctuations in the water supply network.
Below is a diagram of the design of a sprinkler with an explosive element - a flask S.D. Bogoslovsky:
1 - fitting; 2 - bows; 3 - socket; 4 - clamping screw; 5 - cap; 6 - thermal bulb; 7 - diaphragm
Thermal flask is nothing more than a thin-walled hermetically sealed ampoule, inside which there is a heat-sensitive liquid, for example, methylcarbitol. This substance is under the influence high temperatures expands vigorously, increasing the pressure in the flask, which leads to its explosion.
Nowadays, thermowells are the most popular heat-sensitive element of sprinkler sprinklers. Most often there are thermo-flasks of "Job GmbН" firms of the type G8, G5, F5, F4, F3, F 2.5 and F1.5, "Day-Impex Lim" of the type DI 817, DI 933, DI 937, DI 950, DI 984 and DI 941, Geissler type G and "Norbert Job" type Norbulb. There is information about the development of the production of thermo-flasks in Russia and by the "Grinnell" company (USA).
Zone I- these are thermal flasks of the Job G8 and Job G5 types for work in normal conditions.
Zone II- these are thermo-flasks of the F5 and F4 types for sprinklers located in niches or hidden.
Zone III- these are thermo-flasks of the F3 type for sprinkler sprinklers in residential premises, as well as in sprinklers with an increased irrigation area; thermo flasks F2.5; F2 and F1.5 - for sprinklers, the response time of which should be minimal according to the conditions of use (for example, in sprinklers with fine atomization, with an increased irrigation area and sprinklers intended for use in explosion prevention installations). Such sprinklers, as a rule, are marked with the letters FR (Fast Response).
Note: the number after the letter F usually corresponds to the diameter of the thermowell in mm.

Elimination of fires with a high intensity of heat release. It turned out that ordinary sprinklers installed in large warehouses, for example, of plastic materials, cannot cope due to the fact that powerful heat fluxes of a fire carry away small drops of water. From the 60s to the 80s of the last century, sprinklers with a 17/32 ”orifice were used to extinguish such fires in Europe, and after the 80s they switched to using sprinklers with an extra large opening (ELO), ESFR and" large drops ". Such sprinklers are capable of producing water droplets that penetrate through the convective flow that occurs in the warehouse during a powerful fire. Outside our country, ELO sprinkler carriers are used to protect plastic wrapped in cardboard at a height of about 6 m (except for flammable aerosols).
Another quality of the ELO sprinkler is that it is able to function at low water pressure in the pipeline. Sufficient pressure can be provided in many water sources without the use of pumps, which affects the cost of sprinklers.
Sprinklers of the ESFR type are recommended for the protection of various products, including non-foamed plastic materials packed in cardboard, stored at a height of up to 10.7 m with a room height of up to 12.2 m. water, allows the use of fewer sprinklers, which has a positive effect on reducing the amount of water used and the damage caused.
For premises where technical structures violate the interior of the premises, the following types of sprinklers have been developed:
In-depth- sprinklers, the body or arches of which are partially hidden in the recesses of the suspended ceiling or wall panel;
Hidden- sprinklers, in which the bow body and partly the temperature-sensitive element are located in the recess of the suspended ceiling or wall panel;
Hidden- sprinklers closed with a decorative cover
The principle of operation of such sprinklers is shown below. After the cover is triggered, the sprinkler socket under its own weight and the action of a stream of water from the sprinkler along two guides drops down to such a distance that the depression in the ceiling in which the sprinkler is mounted does not affect the nature of water propagation.
In order not to increase the response time of the AUP, the melting point of the decorative cover solder is set below the response temperature of the sprinkler system, therefore, in a fire, the decorative element will not interfere with the flow heat flow to the thermal lock of the sprinkler.
Design of sprinkler and deluge water fire extinguishing installations.
The details of the design of water-foam AUP are described in study guide... In it you will find the features of creating sprinkler and deluge water-foam AUP, installation of fire extinguishing with water mist, AUP for maintaining high-rise shelving warehouses, rules for calculating AUP, examples.
Also, the manual sets out the main provisions of modern scientific and technical documentation for each region of Russia. A detailed consideration is given to the statement of the rules for the development of technical specifications for design, the formulation of the main provisions for the coordination and approval of this task.
The tutorial also discusses the content and rules for the design of a working project, including an explanatory note.
To simplify your task, we present an algorithm for designing a classic water fire extinguishing installation in a simplified form:
1. According to NPB 88-2001, it is necessary to establish a group of premises (production or technological process) depending on its functional purpose and fire load of combustible materials.
OTV is selected, for which the effectiveness of extinguishing combustible materials concentrated in protected objects is established with water, water or foam solution according to NPB 88-2001 (Ch. 4). They check the compatibility of materials in the protected room with the selected OTS - the absence of possible chemical reactions with OTS, accompanied by an explosion, a strong exothermic effect, spontaneous combustion, etc.
2.Considering fire hazard(flame propagation speed) choose the type of fire extinguishing installation - sprinkler, deluge or AUP with finely sprayed (atomized) water.
Automatic switching on of deluge installations is carried out according to signals from fire alarm installations, an incentive system with thermal locks or sprinkler sprinklers, as well as from sensors of technological equipment. The drive of deluge installations can be electric, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical or combined.
3. For sprinkler AUP, depending on the operating temperature, set the type of installation - water-filled (5 ° C and above) or air. Note that in NPB 88-2001 the use of air-water AUP is not provided.
4. According to Ch. 4 NPB 88-2001 accept the irrigation intensity and the area protected by one sprinkler, the area for calculating the water consumption and the estimated operating time of the installation.
If water is used with the addition of a wetting agent based on a general-purpose foaming agent, then the irrigation rate is taken 1.5 times less than for water AUP.
5. According to the passport data of the sprinkler, taking into account the efficiency of the consumed water, set the pressure that must be provided at the "dictating" sprinkler (the most distant or high-lying), and the distance between the sprinklers (taking into account Chapter 4 of NPB 88-2001).
6. The design water consumption for sprinkler systems is determined from the condition of the simultaneous operation of all sprinkler sprinklers on the protected area (see Table 1, Ch. 4 NPB 88-2001,), taking into account the efficiency of the water used and the fact that the flow of sprinklers installed along distribution pipes, increases with distance from the "dictating" sprinkler.
The water consumption for deluge installations is calculated from the condition of the simultaneous operation of all deluge sprinklers in the protected warehouse (5, 6 and 7 groups of the protected object). The area of the premises of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th groups for determining the water flow rate and the number of simultaneously operating sections is found depending on the technological data.
7. For warehouses(5, 6 and 7 groups of the object of protection according to NPB 88-2001) the intensity of irrigation depends on the height of storage of materials.
For the area of reception, packaging and dispatch of goods in warehouses with a height of 10 to 20 m with high-rise storage of the intensity value and the protected area for calculating the flow rate of water, foaming agent solution in groups 5, 6 and 7, given in NPB 88-2001, increase at the rate of 10% for every 2 m of height.
The total consumption of water for internal fire extinguishing of high-rise shelving warehouses is taken at the highest total consumption in the area of shelving storage or in the area of receiving, packaging, picking and dispatching goods.
At the same time, it is certainly taken into account that the space-planning and design solutions of warehouses must comply with SNiP 2.11.01-85, for example, racks are equipped with horizontal screens, etc.
8. Based on the estimated water consumption and the duration of extinguishing the fire, calculate the estimated amount of water. The capacity of fire tanks (reservoirs) is determined, while taking into account the possibility of automatic replenishment with water during the entire time of extinguishing the fire.
The estimated amount of water is stored in tanks for various purposes, if devices are installed that prevent the consumption of the specified volume of water for other needs.
At least two fire tanks should be installed. It should be borne in mind that each of them must store at least 50% of the volume of water for fire extinguishing, and the water supply to any point of the fire is provided from two adjacent reservoirs (reservoirs).
With a design volume of water up to 1000 m3, it is permissible to store water in one tank.
A free access for fire trucks with a lightweight improved road surface should be created to fire tanks, reservoirs and open-pit wells. The locations of fire tanks (reservoirs) can be found in GOST 12.4.009-83.
9. In accordance with the selected type of sprinkler, its flow rate, irrigation intensity and the area protected by it, plans for the placement of sprinklers and an option for routing the pipeline network are developed. For clarity, depict (not necessarily to scale) an axonometric diagram of the pipeline network.
It is important to consider the following:
9.1. Within the same protected area, sprinklers of the same type with the same outlet diameter should be placed.
The distance between sprinkler sprinklers or thermal locks in the incentive system is determined by NPB 88-2001. Depending on the group of the room, it is 3 or 4 m.Exceptions are only sprinklers under beamed ceilings with protruding parts of more than 0.32 m (with fire hazard class of floors (coverings) K0 and K1) or 0.2 m (in other cases) ... In such situations, sprinklers are installed between the protruding parts of the floor, taking into account the uniform irrigation of the floor.
In addition, it is necessary to install additional sprinkler sprinklers or drencher sprinklers with an incentive system for obstacles (technological platforms, boxes, etc.) with a width or diameter of more than 0.75 m, located at a height of more than 0.7 m from the floor.
The best rates of action were obtained when the area of the sprinkler arches was placed perpendicular to the air flow; with a different arrangement of the sprinkler, due to the shielding of the thermo-bulb with bows from the air flow, the response time increases.
Sprinklers are installed in such a way that water from one sprinkler does not touch the neighboring ones. The minimum distance between adjacent sprinklers under a smooth ceiling should not exceed 1.5 m.
The distance between sprinkler sprinklers and walls (partitions) should not be more than half the distance between sprinklers and depends on the slope of the coating, as well as the fire hazard class of the wall or coating.
The distance from the overlap (coating) plane to the outlet of the sprinkler sprinkler or the thermal lock of the cable stimulating system should be 0.08 ... 0.4 m, and to the sprinkler reflector installed horizontally relative to its axis of the type - 0.07 ... 0.15 m.
Placement of sprinklers for suspended ceilings - in accordance with TD on given view sprinkler.
Deluge sprinklers are located taking into account their technical characteristics and irrigation maps to ensure uniform irrigation of the protected area.
Sprinkler sprinklers in water-filled installations are installed with sockets up or down, in air ones - with sockets only up. Sprinklers with a horizontal reflector are used in any configuration of a sprinkler installation.
If there is a risk of mechanical damage, the sprinklers are protected by covers. The design of the casing is chosen so as to exclude a decrease in the area and intensity of irrigation below the standard values.
The features of the placement of sprinklers to obtain water curtains are described in detail in the manuals.
9.2. Pipelines are designed from steel pipes: according to GOST 10704-91 - with welded and flange connections, according to GOST 3262-75 - with welded, flanged, threaded connections, as well as according to GOST R 51737-2001 - with detachable pipeline couplings only for water-filled sprinkler installations for pipes with a diameter of not more than 200 mm.
Supply pipelines are allowed to be designed as dead-end, only if the structure contains no more than three control units and the length of the external dead-end wire is no more than 200 m. In other cases, supply pipelines are created ring-shaped and divided into sections by valves at the rate of up to 3 controls in the section.
Dead-end and annular supply pipelines are equipped with flushing valves, gates or taps with a nominal diameter of at least 50 mm. Such locking devices are supplied with plugs and installed at the end of a dead-end pipeline or in the place farthest from the control unit - for ring pipelines.
Valves or gates mounted on ring pipes must allow water to flow in both directions. The presence and purpose of shut-off valves on the supply and distribution pipelines is regulated by NPB 88-2001.
On one branch of the distribution pipeline of installations, as a rule, no more than six sprinklers with an outlet diameter of up to 12 mm, inclusive, and no more than four sprinklers with an outlet diameter of more than 12 mm should be installed.
In drencher AUP, the supply and distribution pipelines may be filled with water or aqueous solution up to the mark of the lowest located sprinkler in this section. With special caps or plugs on deluge sprinklers, pipelines can be completely filled. Such caps (plugs) should clear the outlet of the sprinklers under the pressure of water (aqueous solution) when the AUP is triggered.
It is necessary to provide for thermal insulation of water-filled pipelines laid in places of their possible freezing, for example, above a gate or doorways... Provide, if necessary additional devices to drain the water.
In some cases, it is possible to connect internal fire hydrants with manual trunks and deluge sprinklers with an incentive switching system to the supply pipelines, and deluge curtains to the supply and distribution pipelines for irrigating door and technological openings.
As mentioned earlier, plastic pipe piping has a number of features. Such pipelines are designed only for water-filled AUP according to the technical conditions developed for a specific facility and agreed with the GUGPS EMERCOM of Russia. The pipes must be tested at FGU VNIIPO EMERCOM of Russia.
The average service life in fire extinguishing installations for a plastic pipeline must be at least 20 years. Pipes are installed only in rooms of categories C, D and D, and their use is prohibited in outdoor fire extinguishing installations. Installation of plastic pipes is provided both open and hidden (in the space of false ceilings). Pipes are laid in rooms with a temperature range of 5 to 50 ° C, the distances from pipelines to heat sources are limited. Intrashop pipelines on the walls of buildings are placed 0.5 m above or below the window openings.
It is prohibited to lay intrashop pipelines made of plastic pipes in transit through premises that perform administrative, household and economic functions, switchgears, rooms for electrical installations, control and automation systems, ventilation chambers, heat points, staircases, corridors, etc.
Sprinkler sprinklers with a response temperature of no more than 68 ° C are used on the branches of distribution plastic pipelines. At the same time, in rooms of categories B1 and B2, the diameter of bursting flasks of sprinklers does not exceed 3 mm, for rooms of categories B3 and B4 - 5 mm.
When sprinkler sprinklers are located openly, the distance between them should not be more than 3 m; for wall-mounted sprinklers, the permissible distance is 2.5 m.
In the case of concealed installation of the system, the plastic piping is concealed by ceiling panels, the fire resistance of which is EL 15.
The working pressure in the plastic pipeline must be at least 1.0 MPa.
9.3 The pipeline network should be divided into fire extinguishing sections - a set of supply and separation pipelines, on which sprinklers are located, connected to a common control unit (CU).
The number of sprinklers of all types in one section of the sprinkler installation should not exceed 800, and the total capacity of pipelines (only for air sprinkler installation) - 3.0 m3. The capacity of the pipeline can be increased to 4.0 m3 when using a UU with an accelerator or exhauster.
To exclude false alarms of operation, a delay chamber is used in front of the pressure signaling device of the UU of the sprinkler installation.
To protect several rooms or floors with one section of the sprinkler system, it is possible to install liquid flow alarms on supply pipelines, with the exception of circular ones. In this case, a shut-off valve must be installed, details of which can be found in NPB 88-2001. This is done to issue a signal specifying the location of the fire and turn on the warning and smoke removal systems.
The liquid flow switch can be used as a signal valve in a water-filled sprinkler installation if a check valve is installed downstream of it.
A section of a sprinkler installation with 12 or more fire hydrants must have two inputs.
10. Drawing up a hydraulic calculation.
The main task here is to determine the water flow rate for each sprinkler and the diameter of various parts of the fire-fighting pipeline. Incorrect calculation of the AUP distribution network (insufficient water flow) often becomes the cause of ineffective fire extinguishing.
In the hydraulic calculation, it is necessary to solve 3 problems:
a) determine the pressure at the inlet to the opposite water pipe (on the axis of the outlet pipe of a pump or other water supply), if the calculated water flow rate, piping routing scheme, their length and diameter, and the type of fittings are specified. The first step is to determine the pressure loss during the movement of water through the pipeline at a given design stroke, and then determine the brand of the pump (or other type of water supply source) capable of providing the required pressure.
b) determine the water flow rate at a given pressure at the beginning of the pipeline. In this case, the calculation should start with determining the hydraulic resistance of each element of the pipeline, as a result of which, set the estimated water flow depending on the pressure obtained at the beginning of the pipeline.
c) determine the diameter of the pipeline and other elements of the protective pipeline system based on the calculated water flow rate and pressure losses along the length of the pipeline.
In the manuals NPB 59-97, NPB 67-98, methods of calculating the required pressure in the sprinkler with a set irrigation intensity are considered in detail. It should be taken into account that when the pressure in front of the sprinkler changes, the irrigated area can either increase, decrease or remain unchanged.
The formula for calculating the required pressure at the beginning of the pipeline after the pump for the general case is as follows:
where Pg is the pressure loss in the horizontal section of the AB pipeline;
Рв - pressure losses in the vertical section of the BP pipeline;
Ro - pressure at the "dictating" sprinkler;
Z is the geometrical height of the "dictating" sprinkler above the pump axis.
The maximum pressure in the pipelines of water and foam fire extinguishing installations is no more than 1.0 MPa.
Hydraulic pressure loss P in pipelines is determined by the formula:
where l is the length of the pipeline, m; k - pressure loss per unit length of the pipeline (hydraulic slope), Q - water flow rate, l / s.
The hydraulic slope is determined from the expression:
where A is the resistivity, depending on the diameter and roughness of the walls, x 106 m6 / s2; Km - specific characteristic of the pipeline, m6 / s2.
As the operating experience shows, the nature of the change in the roughness of pipes depends on the composition of the water, the air dissolved in it, the operating mode, the service life, etc.
The value of resistivity and specific hydraulic characteristics of pipelines for pipes of various diameters are given in NPB 67-98.
Estimated water consumption (foaming agent solution) q, l / s, through the sprinkler (foam generator):
where K is the coefficient of performance of the sprinkler (foam generator) in accordance with the TD for the product; Р - pressure in front of the sprinkler (foam generator), MPa.
The productivity factor K (in foreign literature, a synonym for the productivity factor - "K-factor") is an aggregate complex that depends on the flow rate and the area of the outlet:
where K is the flow rate; F is the area of the outlet; q is the acceleration of gravity.
In the practice of hydraulic design of water and foam AUP, the calculation of the performance factor is usually carried out from the expression:
where Q is the flow rate of water or solution through the sprinkler; P is the pressure in front of the sprinkler.
The dependencies between the performance factors are expressed by the following approximate expression:
Therefore, in hydraulic calculations according to NPB 88-2001, the value of the performance factor in accordance with international and national standards must be taken equal to:
However, it must be borne in mind that not all of the water to be dispersed enters the protected area directly.
The figure shows a diagram of the area of the room affected by the sprinkler. On the area of a circle with a radius Ri the required or normative value irrigation intensity, and on the area of a circle with a radius Rorosh all the extinguishing agent dispersed by the sprinkler is distributed.
The mutual arrangement of sprinklers can be represented by two schemes: in a checkerboard or square pattern
a - chess; b - square
The placement of sprinklers in a checkerboard pattern is beneficial in cases where the linear dimensions of the controlled area are multiples of the radius Ri or the remainder is not more than 0.5 Ri, and almost all water consumption falls on the protected area.
In this case, the configuration of the calculated area has the form of a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle, the shape of which tends to the area of the circle irrigated by the system. With this arrangement, the most intensive irrigation of the sides is created. BUT, with a square arrangement of sprinklers, the area of their interaction increases.
According to NPB 88-2001, the distance between the sprinklers depends on the groups of protected premises and is no more than 4 m for some groups, and no more than 3 m for others.
Only 3 ways of placing sprinklers on the distribution pipeline are real:
Symmetrical (A)
Symmetrical Loopback (B)
Asymmetrical (B)
The figure shows diagrams of three ways of arranging sprinklers, let's consider them in more detail:
A - section with a symmetrical arrangement of sprinklers;
B - section with an asymmetrical arrangement of sprinklers;
B - section with a looped supply pipeline;
I, II, III - rows of the distribution pipeline;
a, b… јn, m - nodal design points
For each fire extinguishing section, we find the most remote and highest protected zone, the hydraulic calculation will be carried out specifically for this zone. The pressure P1 at the "dictating" sprinkler 1, located further and higher than other sprinklers in the system, should not be lower:
where q is the discharge through the sprinkler; K is the coefficient of performance; Rmin slave - the minimum allowable pressure for this type of sprinkler.
The flow rate of the first sprinkler 1 is the calculated value of Q1-2 in the section l1-2 between the first and second sprinklers. The pressure loss P1-2 in the section l1-2 is determined by the formula:
where Kt is the specific characteristic of the pipeline.
Therefore, the pressure at the sprinkler 2:
Sprinkler 2 consumption will be:
The estimated consumption in the area between the second sprinkler and point "a", that is, in the area "2-a" will be equal to:
The diameter of the pipeline d, m, is determined by the formula:
where Q is the water flow rate, m3 / s; ϑ - speed of water movement, m / s.
The speed of water movement in the pipelines of water and foam AUP should not exceed 10 m / s.
The diameter of the pipeline is expressed in millimeters and increased to the nearest value specified in the ND.
According to the flow rate of water Q2-a, the pressure loss in the section "2-a" is determined:
The head at point "a" is
From here we get: for the left branch of the 1st row of section A, it is necessary to ensure the flow rate of Q2-a at a pressure of Pa. The right branch of the row is symmetrical to the left, so the flow rate for this branch will also be equal to Q2-a, therefore, the pressure at point "a" will be equal to Pa.
As a result, for 1 row we have a pressure equal to Pa, and a water flow rate:
Row 2 is calculated according to the hydraulic characteristics:
where l is the length of the calculated section of the pipeline, m.
Since the hydraulic characteristics of the rows, made structurally the same, are equal, the characteristic of row II is determined by the generalized characteristic of the calculated section of the pipeline:
The water consumption from row 2 is determined by the formula:
All the following rows are calculated in the same way as the second one until the result of the estimated water consumption is obtained. Then, the total consumption is calculated based on the condition of placing the required number of sprinklers necessary to protect the calculated area, including, if necessary, install sprinklers under the technological equipment, ventilation ducts or platforms that prevent irrigation of the protected area.
The estimated area is taken depending on the group of premises according to NPB 88-2001.
Due to the fact that the pressure in each sprinkler is different (the most distant sprinkler has the minimum pressure), it is also necessary to take into account the different water flow rate from each sprinkler at the corresponding water efficiency.
Therefore, the estimated consumption of AUP should be determined by the formula:
where QAUP- estimated consumption of AUP, l / s; qn- consumption of the n-th sprinkler, l / s; fn- coefficient of utilization of the flow rate at the design pressure at the n-th sprinkler; in- the average intensity of irrigation by the n-th sprinkler (not less than the standardized irrigation intensity; Sn- standard irrigation area by each sprinkler with standardized intensity.
The ring network is calculated similarly to the dead-end network, but at 50% of the estimated water consumption for each half ring.
From point "m" to water feeders, pressure losses in pipes are calculated along the length and taking into account local resistances, including in control units (signal valves, gate valves, gates).
For approximate calculations, all local resistances are taken equal to 20% of the resistance of the pipeline network.
Head loss in the control unit of installations Ruu(m) is determined by the formula:
where yY is the coefficient of pressure loss in the control unit (taken according to TD for the control unit as a whole or for each signal valve, gate or gate valve individually); Q- estimated consumption of water or foaming agent solution through the control unit.
The calculation is made so that the pressure in the control unit does not exceed 1 MPa.
The approximate diameters of the spreading rows can be set according to the number of sprinklers installed. The table below shows the relationship between the most common row pipe diameters, pressure and the number of sprinklers installed.
The most common mistake in the hydraulic calculation of distribution and supply pipelines is the determination of the flow rate Q according to the formula:
where i and For- respectively, the intensity and area of irrigation for calculating the flow, taken in accordance with NPB 88-2001.
This formula cannot be applied because, as already indicated above, the intensity in each sprinkler is different from the others. This is due to the fact that in any installations with a large number of sprinklers, with their simultaneous operation, pressure losses occur in the pipeline system. Because of this, the flow rate as well as the irrigation intensity of each part of the system are different. As a result, the sprinkler located closer to the feed pipeline has a higher pressure and, consequently, a higher water flow rate. The specified irrigation irregularity is illustrated by the hydraulic calculation of the rows, which consist of successive sprinklers.

Notes:
1. The first design scheme consists of sprinklers with holes 12 mm in diameter with a specific characteristic of 0.141 m6 / s2; the distance between the sprinklers is 2.5 m.
2. Design schemes of rows 2-5 are rows of sprinklers with holes 12.7 mm in diameter with a specific characteristic of 0.154 m6 / s2; the distance between the sprinklers is 3 m.
3. Through P1 the design pressure in front of the sprinkler is indicated, and through
P7 - design pressure in the row.
For design scheme No. 1, water consumption q6 from the sixth sprinkler (located near the feed pipeline) 1.75 times more than the water consumption q1 from the final sprinkler. If the condition of uniform operation of all sprinklers in the system were satisfied, then the total water consumption Qp6 would be multiplying the sprinkler water consumption by the number of sprinklers in a row: Qp6= 0.65 6 = 3.9 l / s.
If the water supply from the sprinklers was uneven, the total water consumption Qf6, according to an approximate tabular calculation method, would be calculated by sequentially adding up costs; it is 5.5 l / s, which is 40% higher Qp6... In the second design scheme q6 3.14 times more q1, a Qf6 more than twice the Qp6.
An unreasonable increase in water consumption for sprinklers, the pressure in front of which is higher than in the others, will only lead to an increase in pressure losses in the supply pipeline and, as a result, to an increase in irrigation irregularity.
The diameter of the pipeline has a positive effect both on reducing the pressure drop in the network and on the estimated water flow. If the water flow rate of the water feeder is maximized during irregular operation of the sprinklers, the cost of construction work for the water feeder will greatly increase. this factor is decisive in determining the cost of work.
How can you achieve a uniform flow of water, and, as a result, uniform irrigation of the protected area at pressures that vary along the length of the pipeline? There are several options available: the device of diaphragms, the use of sprinklers with variable outlets along the length of the pipeline, etc.
However, no one has canceled the existing norms (NPB 88-2001), which do not allow the placement of sprinklers with different outlets within the same protected area.
The use of diaphragms is not regulated by documents, since when they are installed, each sprinkler and a row have a constant flow rate, the calculation of supply pipelines, the diameter of which depends on the pressure loss, the number of sprinklers in the row, the distance between them. This fact greatly simplifies the hydraulic calculation of the fire extinguishing section.
Due to this, the calculation is reduced to determining the dependences of the pressure drop in the sections of the section on the pipe diameters. When choosing the diameters of pipelines in individual sections, it is necessary to observe the condition under which the pressure loss per unit length differs little from the average hydraulic slope:
where k- medium hydraulic slope; ∑ R- pressure loss in the line from the water feeder to the "dictating" sprinkler, MPa; l- the length of the calculated sections of pipelines, m.
This calculation will demonstrate that the installed capacity of the pumping units, attributable to overcoming the pressure losses in the section when using sprinklers with the same flow rate, can be reduced by 4.7 times, and the volume of the emergency water supply in the hydraulic pneumatic tank of the auxiliary water feeder - by 2.1 times. The decrease in the metal consumption of pipelines will be 28%.
However, the tutorial stipulates that it is impractical to install diaphragms of different diameters in front of the sprinklers. The reason for this is the fact that during the operation of the AUP, the possibility of rearranging the diaphragms is not excluded, which significantly reduces the uniformity of irrigation.
For an internal fire-fighting separate water supply system in accordance with SNiP 2.04.01-85 * and automatic fire extinguishing installations in accordance with NPB 88-2001, it is allowed to install one group of pumps, provided this group provides a flow rate Q equal to the sum of the needs of each water supply:
where QВПВ QАУП are the costs required, respectively, for the internal fire-fighting water supply and the AUP water supply system.
In the case of connecting fire hydrants to the supply pipelines, the total consumption is determined by the formula:
where QPC- permissible consumption from fire hydrants (adopted according to SNiP 2.04.01-85 *, table 1-2).
The duration of the work of internal fire hydrants, which include manual water or foam fire nozzles and connected to the supply pipelines of the sprinkler installation, is taken to be equal to the time of its operation.
To speed up and improve the accuracy of hydraulic calculations for sprinkler and deluge AFS, it is recommended to use computer technology.
11. Select a pumping unit.
What are pumping units? In the irrigation system, they perform the function of the main water feeder and are designed to provide water (and water-foam) AUP with the required pressure and consumption of fire extinguishing agent.
There are 2 types of pumping units: main and auxiliary.
Auxiliary ones are used in a permanent mode until large amounts of water are required (for example, in sprinkler installations for a period until no more than 2-3 sprinklers are activated). If the fire takes on a larger scale, then the main pumping units are started (in NTD they are often referred to as the main fire pumps), which provide water flow for all sprinklers. In drencher AUP, as a rule, only the main fire pumping units are used.
Pumping units consist of pumping units, a control cabinet and a piping system for hydraulic and electromechanical equipment.
The pump unit consists of a drive connected through a transfer clutch to a pump (or pump unit), and foundation slab(or grounds). Several working pumping units can be installed in the AUP, which affects the required water flow. But regardless of the number of installed units in the pumping system, one backup must be provided.
When using in AUP no more than three control units, pumping units may be designed with one input and one output, in other cases - with two inputs and two outputs.
A schematic diagram of a pumping unit with two pumps, one inlet and one outlet is shown in Fig. 12; with two pumps, two inputs and two outputs - in fig. thirteen; with three pumps, two inputs and two outputs - in fig. 14.
Regardless of the number of pumping units, the pumping unit diagram must provide water supply to the AUP supply pipeline from any input by switching the appropriate valves or gates:
Directly through the bypass line, bypassing the pumping units;
- from any pumping unit;
- from any set of pumping units.
Before and after each pumping unit, gate valves are installed. This allows you to carry out repair and maintenance work without disrupting the AUP. To prevent the backflow of water through the pumping units or the bypass line at the pump outlet, check valves are installed, which can also be installed behind the gate valve. In this case, when reinstalling the valve for repair, it will not be necessary to drain the water from the conductive pipeline.
As a rule, centrifugal pumps are used in AUP.
The suitable pump type is selected according to characteristics Q-H that are listed in the catalogs. In this case, the following data are taken into account: the required head and flow (according to the results of the hydraulic calculation of the network), the overall dimensions of the pump and the mutual orientation of the suction and pressure nozzles (this determines the layout conditions), the mass of the pump.
12. Placement of the pumping unit pumping station.
12.1. Pumping stations are located in separate rooms with fire partitions and ceilings with a fire resistance limit of REI 45 according to SNiP 21-01-97 on the first, basement or basement floors, or in a separate extension to the building. It is necessary to ensure a constant air temperature from 5 to 35 ° C and a relative humidity of no more than 80% at 25 ° C. The specified room is equipped with working and emergency lighting in accordance with SNiP 23-05-95 and telephone communication with the fire station, a light board "Pumping station" is placed at the entrance.
12.2. The pumping station should be attributed:
According to the degree of supply of water - to the 1st category according to SNiP 2.04.02-84 *. The number of suction lines to the pumping station, regardless of the number and groups of installed pumps, must be at least two. Each suction line must be sized to pass the full design water flow;
- according to the reliability of power supply - to the 1st category according to the PUE (power supply from two independent power supply sources). If it is impossible to fulfill this requirement, it is allowed to install (except basements) standby pumps driven by internal combustion engines.
Typically, pumping stations are designed with control without permanent maintenance personnel. Consideration should be given to local control with automatic or remote control.
Simultaneously with the switching on of the fire pumps, all pumps for other purposes, supplied to this line and not included in the AUP, must be automatically turned off.
12.3. The dimensions of the pumping station's powerhouse should be determined taking into account the requirements of SNiP 2.04.02-84 * (section 12). Take into account the requirements for the width of the aisles.
In order to reduce the size of the pumping station in plan, it is possible to install pumps with right and left rotation of the shaft, and the impeller must rotate in only one direction.
12.4. The mark of the axis of the pumps is determined, as a rule, based on the conditions for installing the pump housing under the bay:
In the tank (from the upper water level (determined from the bottom) of the fire volume in case of one fire, medium (in case of two or more fires);
- in a water well - from the dynamic level of groundwater at maximum water withdrawal;
- in a watercourse or reservoir - from the minimum water level in them: with a maximum provision of the calculated water levels in surface sources - 1%, with a minimum - 97%.
In this case, it is necessary to take into account the permissible vacuum head suction (from the calculated minimum water level) or the required head pressure from the suction side required by the manufacturer, as well as the pressure (head) loss in the suction pipeline, temperature conditions and barometric pressure.
In order to receive water from the storage tank, it is necessary to install pumps “under the bay”. With this installation of pumps above the water level in the tank, pump priming devices or self-priming pumps are used.
12.5. When using in AUP no more than three control units, pumping units are designed with one input and one output, in other cases - with two inputs and two outputs.
In the pumping station, it is possible to arrange suction and pressure manifolds, if this does not entail an increase in the span of the turbine hall.
Pipelines in pumping stations, as a rule, are made of welded steel pipes. Provide for a continuous rise of the suction pipeline to the pump with a slope of at least 0.005.
The diameters of pipes, fittings of fittings are taken on the basis of a technical and economic calculation, based on the recommended speeds of water movement, indicated in the table below:
|
Pipe diameter, mm |
Water speed, m / s, in pipelines of pumping stations |
|
|
suction |
pressure |
|
|
St. 250 to 800 |
||
On the pressure line, each pump requires a check valve, a gate valve and a pressure gauge; on the suction, a check valve is not needed, and when the pump is operating without backpressure in the suction line, a gate valve with a pressure gauge is also dispensed with. If the pressure in external network water supply less than 0.05 MPa, then before pumping unit place a receiving tank, the capacity of which is specified in section 13 of SNiP 2.04.01-85 *.
12.6. In the event of an emergency shutdown of the working pumping unit, an automatic activation of the backup unit supplied to this line should be provided.
The starting time for fire pumps should not exceed 10 minutes.
12.7. To connect the fire extinguishing installation to mobile fire fighting equipment, pipelines with branch pipes are brought out, which are equipped with connecting heads (if at least two fire trucks are connected at the same time). The throughput of the pipeline must ensure the highest design flow rate in the "dictating" section of the fire extinguishing installation.
12.8. In buried and semi-buried pumping stations, measures must be taken against possible flooding of the units in the event of an accident within the turbine room on the largest pump in terms of capacity (or on valves, pipelines) in the following ways:
- the location of the pump motors at a height of at least 0.5 m from the floor of the turbine hall;
- gravity discharge of an emergency amount of water into the sewer or onto the surface of the earth with the installation of a valve or gate valve;
- pumping water from the sump with special or main pumps for industrial purposes.
Measures should also be taken to remove excess water from the turbine room. For this, the floors and channels in the hall are installed with a slope towards the collection pit. On the foundations for pumps, sides, grooves and pipes for water drainage are provided; if it is impossible to drain water from the pit by gravity, drainage pumps should be provided.
12.9. Pumping stations with a turbine hall size of 6-9 m and more are equipped with an internal fire-fighting water supply with a water flow rate of 2.5 l / s, as well as other primary fire extinguishing means.
13. Select an auxiliary or automatic water feeder.
13.1. In sprinkler and deluge installations, an automatic water feeder is used, as a rule, a vessel (s) filled with water (at least 0.5 m3) and compressed air. In sprinkler installations with connected fire hydrants for buildings with a height of more than 30 m, the volume of water or foam solution is increased to 1 m3 or more.
The main task of the water supply system, installed as an automatic water feeder, is to provide a guaranteed pressure numerically equal to the calculated one or exceeding it, sufficient to trigger the control units.
You can also use a feed pump (jockey pump), which includes a non-redundant intermediate tank, usually a membrane, with a water volume of more than 40 liters.
13.2. The water volume of the auxiliary water feeder is calculated from the condition of ensuring the flow required for the deluge installation (the total number of sprinklers) and / or the sprinkler unit (for five sprinklers).
It is necessary to provide an auxiliary water feeder for each installation with a manual fire pump, which will ensure the operation of the installation with the design pressure and flow rate of water (foaming agent solution) for 10 minutes or more.
13.3. Hydraulic, pneumatic and hydropneumatic tanks (vessels, containers, etc.) are selected taking into account the requirements of PB 03-576-03.
The tanks should be installed in rooms with walls, the fire resistance of which is at least REI 45, and the distance from the top of the tanks to the ceiling and walls, as well as between adjacent tanks, should be from 0.6 m. Pumping stations should not be located adjacent to rooms where a large crowd of people is possible, such as concert halls, stage, wardrobe, etc.
Hydropneumatic tanks are located on technical floors, and pneumatic tanks are also located in unheated rooms.
In buildings, the height of which exceeds 30 m, an auxiliary water feeder is placed on the upper floors of technical purposes. Automatic and auxiliary water feeders must be turned off when the main pumps are turned on.
The tutorial describes in detail the procedure for developing a design assignment (Chapter 2), the procedure for developing a project (Chapter 3), approval and general principles examination of AUP projects (Ch. 5). Based on this manual, the following appendices have been compiled:
Appendix 1. List of documentation submitted by the developer organization to the customer organization. Composition of design and estimate documentation.
Appendix 2. An example of a working design of an automatic sprinkler installation for water fire extinguishing.
By doing installation works the general requirements given in chap. 12.
First of all, it is necessary to make an entrance control and draw up an act. Then remove excess grease from the units, prepare the foundation, mark and align the plate area for the adjusting screws. When aligning and fastening, it is necessary to ensure that the equipment axes are aligned with the foundation axes in plan.
The pumps are aligned with the adjusting screws provided in their bearing parts. Compressors can be aligned with adjusting screws, inventory leveling jacks, setting nuts on foundation bolts, or metal spacer packs.
Attention! Before the final tightening of the screws, do not carry out any work that could change the aligned position of the equipment.
Compressors and pumping units that do not have a common foundation plate are mounted in series. Installation begins with a gearbox or a larger machine. The axes are aligned along the half couplings, the oil lines are connected and, after the alignment and final fixing of the unit, the pipelines.
The placement of shut-off valves on all suction and discharge pipelines should ensure the possibility of replacing or repairing any of the pumps, check valves and main shut-off valves, as well as checking the characteristics of the pumps.
2.4.2. Control units are delivered to the assembly area assembled in accordance with the piping scheme adopted in the project (figures).
For control units, a functional piping scheme is provided, and on each direction there is a plate indicating the operating pressures, the name and category for the explosion and fire hazard of the protected premises, the type and number of sprinklers in each section of the installation, the position (state) of the locking elements in standby mode.
2.4.3. Installation and fastening of pipelines and equipment during their installation is carried out in accordance with SNiP 3.05.04-84, SNiP 3.05.05-84, VSN 25.09.66-85 and VSN 2661-01-91.
The pipelines are attached to the wall with holders, but they cannot be used as supports for other structures. The distance between the pipe attachment points is up to 4 m, with the exception of pipes with a nominal bore of more than 50 mm, for them the pitch can be increased to 6 m, if there are two independent attachment points installed in the building structure. And also when laying the pipeline through sleeves and grooves.
If the risers and bends on distribution pipelines exceed 1 m in length, then they are attached with additional holders. The distance from the holder to the sprinkler on the riser (branch) is at least 0.15 m.
The distance from the holder to the last sprinkler on the distribution pipeline for pipes with a nominal diameter of 25 mm and less does not exceed 0.9 m, with a diameter of more than 25 mm - 1.2 m.
For air sprinkler installations, the slope of the supply and distribution pipelines towards the control unit or drainage devices is provided: 0.01 - for pipes with an outer diameter of less than 57 mm; 0.005 - for pipes with an outer diameter of 57 mm and more.
If the pipeline is made of plastic pipes, then it must be tested at a positive temperature 16 hours after welding the last joint.
Do not install industrial and sanitary equipment to the supply pipe of the fire extinguishing system!
2.4.4. Installation of sprinklers at protected objects carried out in accordance with the project, NPB 88-2001 and TD for a specific type of sprinkler.
Glass thermo-flasks are very fragile, therefore they require a delicate attitude towards themselves. Damaged thermowells can no longer be used, since they cannot fulfill their direct duty.
When installing sprinklers, it is recommended that the plane of the sprinkler arms be sequentially oriented along the distribution pipeline and, then, perpendicular to its direction. On adjacent rows, it is recommended to orient the plane of the arches perpendicular to each other: if on one row the plane of the arches is oriented along the pipeline, then on the adjacent one - across its direction. Guided by this rule, you can improve the uniformity of irrigation in the protected area.
For quick and high-quality installation of sprinklers on the pipeline, various devices are used: adapters, tees, clamps for hanging pipelines, etc.
When securing the piping in place with clamp connections, several holes must be drilled in the desired locations in the distribution piping, along which the unit will be centered. The pipeline is fixed with a bracket or two bolts. The sprinkler is screwed into the outlet of the device. If you need to use tees, then in this case you will need to prepare pipes of a given length, the ends of which will be connected by tees, then tightly fasten the tee to the pipes with a bolt. In this case, the sprinkler is installed in the branch of the tee. If you opted for plastic pipes, then for such pipes you need special clamp hangers:
1 - cylindrical adapter; 2, 3 - clamp adapters; 4 - tee
Let us consider in more detail the clamps, as well as the features of the fastening of pipelines. To prevent mechanical damage to the sprinkler, it is usually covered with protective covers. BUT! Keep in mind that the cover can impede even irrigation by distorting the distribution of the liquid to be dispersed over the protected area. In order to avoid this, always ask the seller for certificates of conformity for the given sprinkler with the enclosed casing design.
a - a clamp for hanging a metal pipeline;
b - a clamp for hanging a plastic pipeline
Protective fencing covers for sprinklers
2.4.5. When the height of the equipment control devices, electric drives and flywheels of the valves (gates) is more than 1.4 m from the floor, additional platforms and blind areas are installed. But the height from the platform to the control devices should not be more than 1m. It is possible to widen the equipment foundation.
The location of equipment and fittings under the installation site (or service areas) at a height from the floor (or bridge) to the bottom of the protruding structures is not excluded.
AUP starting devices must be protected from accidental operation.
These measures are necessary in order to maximally secure the AUP starter devices from unintended operation.
2.4.6. After installation, individual tests are carried out elements of a fire extinguishing installation: pumping units, compressors, tanks (automatic and auxiliary water feeders), etc.
Before testing the UU, air is removed from all elements of the installation, then they are filled with water. In sprinkler installations, a combined valve is opened (in air and water-air - a valve), it is necessary to make sure that the alarm device is activated. In deluge installations, the valve is closed above the UU, the manual start valve on the incentive pipeline is opened (the start button of the motorized valve is turned on). The actuation of the control device (gate valves with an electric drive) and the signaling device is recorded. During the tests, the operation of the pressure gauges is checked.
Hydraulic tests of containers operating under compressed air pressure are carried out in accordance with TD on the container and PB 03-576-03.
Pumps and compressors are run-in in accordance with TD and VSN 394-78.
Test methods for the installation during its acceptance into operation are given in GOST R 50680-94.
Now, according to NPB 88-2001 (clause 4.39), it is possible to use plug valves at the upper points of the pipeline network of sprinkler installations as devices for air release, as well as as a valve under a pressure gauge to control a sprinkler with a minimum pressure.
It is useful to prescribe such devices in the installation project and use them when testing the control device.

The serviceability of the water fire extinguishing installation is monitored by round-the-clock protection of the building territory. Access to the pumping station should be limited for unauthorized persons, sets of keys are issued to operating and maintenance personnel.
DO NOT paint the sprinklers, it is necessary to protect them from paint ingress during redecoration.
External influences such as vibration, pressure in the pipeline, and due to the impact of sporadic water hammer due to the operation of fire pumps seriously affect the operating time of the sprinklers. The consequence may be a weakening of the thermal lock of the sprinkler sprinkler, as well as their fallout if the installation conditions were violated.
Often the temperature of the water in the pipeline is above average, this is especially typical for premises where, due to the type of activity, elevated temperatures are caused. This can cause the shut-off device to stick in the sprinkler head due to precipitation in the water. That is why, even if outwardly the device looks intact, it is necessary to inspect the equipment for corrosion, sticking, so that false alarms and tragic situations do not occur if the system fails during a fire.
When activating a sprinkler sprinkler, it is very important that all parts of the thermal lock fly out without delay after destruction. This function is controlled by the diaphragm and levers. If the technology was violated during the installation, or the quality of the materials leaves much to be desired, over time, the properties of the spring-disk membrane may weaken. Where it leads? The thermal lock will partially remain in the sprinkler and will not allow the valve to fully open, the water will only ooze out in a small stream, which will prevent the device from fully irrigating the area it protects. To avoid similar situations, in the sprinkler sprinkler, an arcuate spring is provided, whose force is directed perpendicular to the plane of the arches. This guarantees a complete release of the thermal lock.
Also, when using it, it is necessary to exclude the influence of the lighting fixture on the sprinklers when it is moved during repairs. Eliminate the resulting gaps between the piping and electrical wiring.
When determining the progress of maintenance and repair work, you should:
Every day, conduct an external inspection of the installation units and monitor the water level in the tank,
Perform a weekly test run of pumps with an electric or diesel drive for 10-30 minutes from remote start devices without water supply,
Once every 6 months, drain the sludge from the reservoir, and also make sure that the drainage devices are in good working order to ensure that water flows out of the protected area (if any).
Check the flow characteristics of the pumps annually,
Rotate the drain valves annually,
Change the water in the tank and pipelines of the unit annually, clean the tank, flush and clean the pipelines.
Timely carry out hydraulic tests of pipelines and hydraulic pneumatic tank.
The main routine maintenance carried out abroad in accordance with NFPA 25 provides for a detailed annual inspection of the UVP elements:
- sprinklers (no plugs, type and orientation of sprinklers in accordance with the design, absence of mechanical damage, corrosion, clogging of outlets of deluge sprinklers, etc.);
- pipelines and fittings (absence of mechanical damage, cracks on fittings, paintwork damage, changes in the slope angle of pipelines, serviceability of drainage devices, sealing gaskets must be tightened in the clamping units);
- brackets (no mechanical damage, corrosion, reliable fastening of pipelines to brackets (attachment points) and brackets to building structures);
- control units (position of valves and gate valves in accordance with the project and the operating manual, operability of signaling devices, gaskets must be tightened);
- check valves (correct connection).
International studies have shown that as water droplets decrease, the efficiency of water mist increases dramatically.
Misty water (TPV) refers to a jet of droplets with a diameter of less than 0.15 mm.
Note that TRV and its foreign name "water fog" are not equivalent concepts. According to NFPA 750, water mist is divided into 3 classes according to the degree of dispersion. The "thinnest" water mist belongs to class 1 and contains droplets with a diameter of ~ 0.1 ... 0.2 mm. Class 2 combines water jets with droplet diameter predominantly 0.2 ... 0.4 mm, class 3 - up to 1 mm. using conventional sprinkler heads with a small outlet diameter with a slight increase in water pressure.
So, in order to obtain a water mist of the first class, a high water pressure is required, or the installation of special sprinklers, while obtaining a dispersion of the third class is achieved using conventional sprinkler sprinklers with a small diameter of the outlet with a slight increase in water pressure.
Water mist was first installed and applied on passenger ferries in the 1940s. Now interest in it has increased in connection with the latest research, which has proven that water fog does an excellent job of ensuring fire safety in those rooms where freon or carbon dioxide fire extinguishing installations were previously used.
Superheated water fire extinguishing installations were the first to appear in Russia. They were developed by VNIIPO in the early 1990s. The jet of superheated steam quickly evaporated and turned into a jet of steam with a temperature of about 70 ° C, which transported a stream of condensed finely dispersed droplets over a considerable distance.
Now modules have been developed for fire extinguishing with water mist and special sprays, the principle of operation of which is similar to the previous ones, but without the use superheated water... The delivery of water droplets to the fire site is usually carried out by a propellant gas from the module.
3.1. Purpose and arrangement of installations
According to NPB 88-2001, finely sprayed water fire extinguishing installations (UPTRV) are used for surface and local over the surface extinguishing of class A and B fires. commercial and warehouse premises, that is, in cases where it is important not to harm material assets fire retardant solutions. Typically, these installations are modular.
For extinguishing both common hard materials (plastics, wood, textiles, etc.) and more hazardous materials such as foam rubber;
Flammable and flammable liquids (in the latter case, a thin spray of water is used);
- electrical equipment such as transformers, electrical switches, motors with a rotating rotor, etc .;
Gas jets fire.
We have already mentioned that the use of water mist significantly increases the chances of rescuing people from a flammable room, simplifies evacuation. The use of water mist is very effective in extinguishing the spill of aviation fuel, because it significantly reduces the heat flux.
General requirements applicable in the United States to specified fire extinguishing installations are given in NFPA 750, Standard on Water Mist Fire Protection Systems.
3.2. To obtain water mist use special sprinklers, which are called sprayers.
Spray- sprinkler designed for spraying water and aqueous solutions, the average droplet diameter of which in the flow is less than 150 µm, but does not exceed 250 µm.
Spray sprinklers are installed in the installation at a relatively low pressure in the pipeline. If the pressure exceeds 1MPa, then a simple rosette atomizer can be used as atomizers.
If the diameter of the outlet of the atomizer is larger than the outlet, then the outlet is mounted outside the arches, if the diameter is small, then between the arches. The splitting of the jet can also be carried out on the ball. To protect against contamination, the outlet of the deluge sprayers is closed with a protective cap. When water is fed, the cap is thrown off, but its loss is prevented by a flexible connection with the body (wire or chain).
Sprayer designs: a - spray type AM 4; b - spray type AM 25;
1 - case; 2 - bows; 3 - socket; 4 - fairing; 5 - filter; 6 - outlet calibrated hole (nozzle); 7 - protective cap; 8 - centering cap; 9 - elastic membrane; 10 - thermal bulb; 11 - adjusting screw.
3.3. As a rule, UPTRV are modular designs. Modules for UPTRV are subject to mandatory certification for compliance with NPB 80-99 requirements.
The propellant used in the modular sprinkler is air or other inert gases (for example, carbon dioxide or nitrogen), as well as pyrotechnic gas generating elements recommended for use in fire fighting equipment. No parts of the gas-generating elements should get into the extinguishing agent; this should be provided for by the design of the installation.
In this case, the propellant can be contained both in one cylinder with an OTV (injection-type modules), and in a separate cylinder with an individual locking and starting device (ZPU).
The principle of operation of the modular UPTV.
As soon as an extreme temperature in the room is detected by the fire alarm, a control pulse is generated. It enters the gas generator or the ZPU cylinder pyrocartridge, the latter contains a propellant or OTV (for injection-type modules). A gas-liquid flow is formed in the bottle with the OTV. It is transported through the pipeline network to the sprayers, through which it is dispersed in the form of a finely dispersed droplet medium into the protected area. The installation can be manually operated from the trigger (handle, button). Typically, the modules are equipped with a pressure indicator, which is designed to transmit a signal about the operation of the installation.
For clarity, we present you several UPTRV modules:

Technical characteristics of modular installations for fire extinguishing with water mist MUPTV NPF "Safety"
Technical characteristics of modular water mist fire extinguishing installations MPV
Much attention is paid to regulatory documents on ways to reduce impurities in water. For this reason, filters are installed in front of the nozzles, and anti-corrosion measures are taken for modules, pipelines and sprayers UPTRV (pipelines are made of galvanized or stainless steel). These measures are extremely important because flow cross-sections of UPTRV nozzles are small.
When using water with additives that precipitate or form a phase separation during long-term storage, devices are provided for mixing them.
All methods for checking the irrigated area are detailed in the TU and TD for each product.
In accordance with NPB 80-99, the fire extinguishing efficiency of using modules with a set of sprayers is checked during fire tests, where they are used model foci fire:
- class B, cylindrical baking trays with an inner diameter of 180 mm and a height of 70 mm, a flammable liquid - n-heptane or A-76 gasoline in an amount of 630 ml. Free burning time of flammable liquid 1 min;
- class A, stacks of five rows of bars, folded in the form of a well, forming a square in horizontal section and fastened together. Three bars are laid in each row, having a square of 39 mm in cross section and a length of 150 mm. The middle block is laid in the center parallel to the side edges. The stack is placed on two steel corners mounted on concrete blocks or rigid metal supports so that the distance from the base of the stack to the floor is 100 mm. A metal baking sheet (150x150) mm in size with gasoline is placed under the stack to set wood on fire. Free burning time about 6 minutes.
3.4. Design of UPTRV perform in accordance with Chapter 6 NPB 88-2001. According to rev. No. 1 to NPB 88-2001 "the calculation and design of installations is carried out on the basis of the normative and technical documentation of the manufacturer of the installations, agreed in the established manner."
The UPTRV version must meet the requirements of NPB 80-99. The location of the sprayers, the diagram of their connection to the pipeline distribution, the maximum length and diameter of the nominal pipeline passage, the height of its placement, the fire class and the protected area and other necessary information are usually indicated in the manufacturer's TD.
Observe the spatial orientation specified in the project and TD during the installation of the sprayers. Installation diagrams of AM 4 and AM 25 nozzles on the pipeline are presented below:
In order for the product to serve for a long time, it is necessary to carry out the necessary renovation work and TO, given in the manufacturer's TD. Particularly carefully observe the schedule of measures to protect the sprayers from clogging, both external (dirt, intense dustiness, debris during repairs, etc.) and internal (rust, mounting sealing elements, particles of sediment from water during storage, etc. .) elements.
The ERW is used to deliver water to the building's fire hydrant and, as a rule, is included in the building's internal water supply system.
The requirements for ERW are determined by SNiP 2.04.01-85 and GOST 12.4.009-83. The design of pipelines laid outside buildings for supplying water to external fire extinguishing should be carried out in accordance with SNiP 2.04.02-84. The requirements for ERW are determined by SNiP 2.04.01-85 and GOST 12.4.009-83. The design of pipelines laid outside buildings for supplying water to external fire extinguishing should be carried out in accordance with SNiP 2.04.02-84. General issues of using ERW are considered in the work.
The list of residential, public, auxiliary, industrial and warehouse buildings that are equipped with ERW is presented in SNiP 2.04.01-85. The minimum required water consumption for fire extinguishing and the number of simultaneously operating jets are determined. The consumption is influenced by the height of the building and the fire resistance of the building structures.
If the ERW cannot provide the required water pressure, it is necessary to install pumps that increase the pressure, and a pump start button is installed near the fire hydrant.
The minimum diameter of the sprinkler installation supply pipeline to which a fire hydrant can be connected is 65mm. The cranes are placed in accordance with SNiP 2.04.01-85. Indoor fire hydrants do not need a remote start button for fire pumps.
The method for hydraulic calculation of the ERW is given in SNiP 2.04.01-85. At the same time, the water consumption for using showers and watering the territory is not taken into account, the speed of water movement in pipelines should not exceed 3 m / s (except for water fire extinguishing installations, where a water speed of 10 m / s is allowed).

The hydrostatic head should not exceed:
In the system of the combined economic and fire-fighting water supply system at the level of the lowest location of the sanitary-technical device - 60 m;
- in the system of a separate fire-fighting water supply system at the level of the lowest located fire hydrant - 90 m.
If the pressure in front of the fire hydrant exceeds 40 m of water. Art., then a diaphragm is installed between the tap and the connecting head, which reduces the excess pressure. The pressure in the fire hydrant must be sufficient to create a jet that affects the most distant and highest parts of the room at any time of the day. The radius and height of the jets are also regulated.
The operating time of fire hydrants should be taken 3 hours, with water supply from the water tanks of the building - 10 minutes.
Internal fire hydrants are installed, as a rule, at the entrance, on the landing of staircases, in the corridor. The main thing is that the place should be accessible, and the crane should not interfere with the evacuation of people in case of fire.
Fire hydrants are housed in wall boxes at a height of 1.35. The cabinet is provided with openings for ventilation and inspection of the contents without opening.
Each crane must be equipped with a fire hose of the same diameter, 10, 15 or 20 m long and a fire nozzle. The sleeve should be laid in a double roll or "accordion" and attached to the tap. The procedure for maintaining and servicing fire hoses must comply with the "Instructions for the operation and repair of fire hoses", approved by the State Unitary Enterprise of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR.
Inspection of fire hydrants and their performance check by running water is carried out at least once every 6 months. The results of the check are recorded in the journal.
The external decoration of fire cabinets should include a red signal color. The lockers must be sealed.
Modern approaches to the design and installation of fire pipelines are not so straightforward. In order to reduce costs and simplify installation, Western and domestic manufacturers began to supply pipes, fittings and adapters made of polypropylene and PVC to the market for pipelines in fire extinguishing systems. The elements of the system are connected using "cold welding", that is, special adhesive joints. The main advantage of the technology is that the pipeline can be installed in hard-to-reach places... Moreover, the speed, efficiency and cost of work make "non-metallic" fire pipelines economically attractive.
However, the use of plastic elements in fire pipeline systems causes a contradictory attitude of specialists ( for the most part negative). Although in accordance with the current set of rules SP 5.13130.2009 "Systems fire protection... Automatic fire alarm and extinguishing installations. Norms and rules of design ”the use of plastic fire pipelines and individual components is allowed, but only in the case of special fire tests in licensed organizations and with good results.
So far, few organizations have received Russian certificates of conformity and fire safety. It is not yet necessary to talk about the massive use of plastic pipelines in fire extinguishing systems. However, there are supporters of using plastic pipes with adhesive joints in sprinkler systems, since this technology speeds up installation and significantly reduces the cost of work. At the same time, the area of application of plastic pipes and fittings (in the field of fire extinguishing) is limited to pipelines constantly filled with water.
The main advantage of the technology is that the pipeline can be installed in hard-to-reach places. The speed, efficiency and cost of work make "non-metallic" fire pipelines economically attractive.
When designing and installing plastic sprinkler systems, increased requirements are applied: it is necessary to exclude the presence of voids (areas not filled with water) at all stages of operation of the pipeline system.
There is another technology for arranging a sprinkler system, which has even greater maneuverability and ease of installation than a plastic pipeline. For water supply, metal hoses and connections are used, made on the basis of braided stainless steel hoses or corrugated pipes. The flexible system allows you to equip the wiring from the main pipeline to the sprinkler heads with minimal costs. In addition, the maneuverability of the system allows the pipeline to be laid in the most inaccessible places, in particular, the wiring can be easily disguised behind suspended ceilings.
However, “alternative” materials in fire extinguishing systems, although they have maneuverability, speed up installation, but are quite costly compared to metal wiring. In addition, despite the set of rules that allows the use of non-metallic sprinkler systems (with a positive outcome of the fire tests), it is necessary to obtain permission from the fire authorities. And inspectors are wary of flexible and plastic liners. Therefore, the innovative approach and conservatism of firefighters can complicate or significantly slow down the installation of the system.
At the same time, there are technologies that make it possible to simplify the installation of a metal fire-fighting pipeline system, and to facilitate work in hard-to-reach places. According to Andrey Markov, director of the Russian division of Ridgid, it is advisable to use pipeline systems with split couplings.
The fact is that Russian standards allow the use of couplings in a fire pipeline, but this technology has not yet found widespread use. The reason is that a high-quality installation requires a convenient and efficient grooving tool. The connected ends of the pipes must be meticulously "sharpened" for the coupling, otherwise a high-quality installation of the pipeline and trouble-free operation of the system will not work. Modern equipment for rolling grooves allows you to quickly process the ends of pre-cut pipes right at the installation site of the pipeline, and even more so in the workshop.
A good set of tools makes the installation of a metal pipeline much more maneuverable: if necessary, the length of the pipe can be adjusted right at the installation site. In addition, the tool can work with already installed pipelines, which requires a distance of at least 90 mm from the wall or ceiling. The new technology allows, with the help of tools, not only to lay new fire-prevention systems, but also to repair the existing pipeline. Moreover, when installing the pipeline, with the help of quick-release couplings, the pipes to be connected are self-centering. Coupling connections are highly advisable in cases where the fire-fighting pipeline system is installed in places where it is prohibited welding works... For example, in old wooden buildings, in existing archives and similar institutions.
Fire-fighting piping systems on split couplings are easy to operate and maintain, and are very resistant to deformation and vibration loads
According to the director of the Russian division of Ridgid, fire-fighting pipe systems on split couplings are easy to operate and maintain, and are also very resistant to deformation and vibration loads. This is especially true when the fire in the building is caused by an earthquake. The system works in spite of deformation loads and strong vibration, and at the same time (if the installation of the pipeline was carried out efficiently), there is no loss of tightness in the coupling joints.
Compensation for the thermal expansion of steel pipes, which occurs as a result of a fire, is no less important. This piping system, complete with quick-release couplings, compensates well for expansion of the fire-fighting piping.
