12、t systems). This current part of BS 7273 provides recommendations for the electrical actuation of pre-action watermist and sprinkler systems.Recommendations for the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of fire detection and fire alarm systems are given in BS 5839-1. Recommendations fo

13、r the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of sprinkler systems are given in BS EN 12845. Recommendations for the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of watermist systems will be given in DD 8489-1, which is currently in preparation. It is anticipated that an amendment

14、 will be issued to BS 7273-3 when DD 8489-1 is published.Information about this documentThis is a full revision of BS 7273-3. The principal changes from the previous edition are as follows. The scope of the standard now includes pre-action watermist systems. References have been updated. Terminology

15、 has been brought into line with related standards, particularly in relation to control and indicating equipment. Reference is made to DD 8489-1 and BS EN 12845.BS 7273-3:2008iv BSI 2008Use of this documentAs a code of practice, this part of BS 7273 takes the form of guidance and recommendations. It

16、 should not be quoted as if it were a specification and particular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are not misleading.Any user claiming compliance with this British Standard is expected to be able to justify any course of action that deviates from its recommendations.Hazard

17、warningsPresentational conventionsThe provisions in this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its recommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “should”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented in smaller, italic type

Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal obligation

19、s.CAUTION. Certain electromagnetic fields, such as those generated by radio frequency transmitters, could potentially trigger the charging of pre-action watermist and sprinkler systems or cause them to malfunction. In such cases it is appropriate to take action to minimize the risk of unintentional

20、charging of the pipework due to the electromagnetic field radiated by such apparatus. It might be necessary to seek specialist advice. BSI 2008 1BS 7273-3:2008IntroductionA pre-action sprinkler system is a fire extinguishing system which consists of a sprinkler system and an electrical detection sys

21、tem with water held back by the pre-action valve and pressurized air in the sprinkler pipework. In the event of the operation of the electrical detection system, the pre-action alarm valve operates and allows water into the sprinkler pipework. Pre-action watermist systems work on the same principle.

22、Two generic forms of operation exist: type A and type B.In the case of a type A pre-action system, water will only enter the pipework following the operation of the detection system. Accordingly, type A pre-action systems will only discharge water onto the seat of the fire when both the electrical d

23、etection system and any automatic sprinkler head or watermist nozzle has operated. Any accidental damage to the sprinklers/watermist nozzles, or pipework, will not cause water to be discharged.Type A systems are, therefore, suitable for use in situations in which: there is high potential for mechani

24、cal damage to the system; or the probability of mechanical damage might not be high, but the consequences of inadvertent water damage would include serious damage to sensitive contents and/or major interruption to business.Type B pre-action systems will discharge water onto the seat of a fire when a

25、ny sprinkler or watermist nozzle operates, whether or not the electrical detection system has operated. However, normally the fire detection system will operate before a sprinkler head or watermist nozzle so that, in effect, the system is “wet” at the time of watermist/sprinkler operation. Type B sy

26、stems are normally used in circumstances in which there is a need to speed up the operation of a dry system.The functions of the two systems can be depicted by the binary logic sequence using “and” and “or” gates as given in Figure 1.It is of importance that fire detection systems and any interfaces

27、 associated with pre-action watermist and sprinkler systems have high integrity and do not cause the pre-action alarm valve to remain closed under fire conditions.It is also important to avoid inadvertent operation of the pre-action alarm valve, as draining down of the system can be time consuming a

28、nd inconvenient.The recommendations in this part of BS 7273 take these factors into account, as well as the recommendations of the relevant British and European Standards covering fire detection and fire alarm systems (BS 5839 and BS EN 54) and sprinklers (BS EN 12845). The standard for watermist sy

29、stems has not yet been published, and is expected to be issued as a Draft for Development (DD 8489) in due course. The recommendations relating to watermist in this part of BS 7273 have been developed in liaison with FSH/18, the committee working on DD 8489.BS 7273-3:20082 BSI 2008In some applicatio

30、ns (e.g. cold stores), the consequences of inadvertent discharge are so severe that “double interlocked” pre-action systems are sometimes used. In these systems, water is only allowed to enter the pipework if both the electrical detection system and an automatic sprinkler head/watermist nozzle have

31、operated. This differs from a type A system in that the system remains dry if only the electrical detection system has operated.These and certain other types of pre-action system such as recycling systems are not covered in BS EN 12845 or DD 8489 and are not addressed in this British Standard.Figure

BSI 2008 5BS 7273-3:20084System design4.1 GeneralThe pre-action mode of operation introduces additional complexity over and above the relatively

46、simple mechanical engineering associated with standard, closed nozzle/head watermist/sprinkler systems. Therefore, it is essential that reliability is maximized. This requires that additional attention is paid to the design of the system.The requirements of the system should be ascertained by the de

47、signer, by means of consultation with the relevant stakeholders. It is particularly important that the agreement of the stakeholders is obtained before the use of a type A pre-action system is considered.It is essential that, in the event of fire, a pre-planned sequence of actions is taken to ensure

48、 the effective operation of the watermist/sprinkler system (see 4.4). Such necessary actions should be discussed at the design stage and incorporated within the proposed system.The system design should conform to the appropriate provisions of: BS 5839-1, for fire detection and fire alarm systems; BS

49、 EN 12845, for sprinkler systems.NOTE Recommendations for the design and installation of watermist systems will be given in DD 8489-1, which is currently in preparation.On the basis of this consultation, the designer should prepare documents showing details of the design. This may include a simple diagrammatic representation of a sequence of actions leading to the discharge of water.4.2 Zoning of the pre-action systemZoning of pre-action sprinkler systems should be in accordance with the require
