Page 5: About This Manual
The Customer is entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. The Customer is also entitled to have the PEFS F3N System repaired or replaced if the PEFS F3N System fails to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
Page 6: Intended Use
Intended use The PEFS F3N System is a fire suppression system, installed as part of an overall fire risk reduction strategy, as defined in the fire system specifications and or risk assessment outcomes. As such, it is designed to suppress a fire occurring in the specified risk area only within the documented coverage area of each installed nozzle.
Page 7: Introduction
PEFS F3N systems consist of pressurised cylinders containing fluorine free foam solution, actuation devices to initiate discharge and a discharge network which includes aspirating spray nozzles to direct the foam spray onto the hazard. PEFS F3N systems may be configured for both manual and automatic operation.
Page 8: Maintenance
The presence of salts in water that is used to fill PEFS F3N cylinders may have an impact to the firefighting performance of the foam, can clog the pressure indicator, bind the valve actuation mechanism, inhibit the removal of the cylinder valve and or lead to pitting corrosion of the cylinder.
