Design of Automatic Deluge Fire Protection System for Explosive …
357
For 318 m
3 /hr water demand, 150 mm size of deluge valve shall be installed.
(Recommended flow for 150 mm deluge valve size is 170 to 650 m
3
/hr as
per make)
Deluge valve = 150 mm
4 Conclusion
The deluge system (Automatic fire protection system) is an emergency equipment to
be used in an untoward situation to control the consequences. The effective design
of such emergency equipments will ensure the containment of effects in case of fire.
It will prevent the extent of damage that the equipments in buildings undergo. Water
demand to suppress the fire in the facility is found by dimensions of the facility and
the design density of fire protection system.
