WARNING Danger due to the usage of unsuitable components
If unsuitable, defective or contaminated components are mounted this can impair the functionality
of the system. This can lead to severe injuries or even death, as well as significant property damage.
• Only use undamaged and clean components.
• Do not use any components that do not correspond to the design data or that do not fit the other
components.
• If in doubt contact the manufacturer.
NOTICE Material damage due to insufficient load-bearing capacity
If system components are fastened to building components that do not have sufficient load-bearing
capacity, they can fail in operation and damage the system.
• Only fasten components on building parts (e.g. walls) that have adequate load-bearing capacity
and that can withstand the anticipated loads.
• Only use fastening elements with sufficient bearing capacity.
5.2 Requirements imposed on the pipeline system
WARNING Risk of death due to improper pipe mounting
If components leak or fail due to improper pipe mounting, this can cause failure of the system. Thus if
there is fire life-threatening danger as well as significant material damage can occur.
• Fit pipelines stress-free before mounting. The cap nut of the pipe connection must screw on easily
across the entire thread length.
• Catch vibrations with suitable pipe holders.
WARNING Danger of injury due to an unsuitable pipeline system
If the pipeline system is not correctly configured or properly installed this can restrict the functional-
ity of the system and cause the pipeline system to fail.
• Hydraulically calculate the layout of pipelines.
• Design and mount pipeline system up to the pressure reducer according to locally-valid provi-
sions for fire extinguishing systems with an operating pressure according to the system pressure
[200 bar (2901 psi) or 300 bar (4351 psi)].
• Design and install pipeline system behind the pressure reducer in accordance with the locally
valid regulations for fire extinguishing systems with an operating pressure of 60 bar (870 psi).
• Do not retroactively change the pipeline routing or cross sections.
• Always execute a new calculation if there are planned changes.
• Comply with all the requirements imposed on pipelines cited below.
