This Standard sets out requirements for design, installation, testing and commissioning of gaseous fire extinguishing systems for both total flooding and local application types. It applies to central or distributed supply systems. This Standard does not apply to explosion suppression. This Standard deals with systems utilizing electrically non-conducting extinguishing agents that do not leave a residue after discharge and for which there is sufficient data currently available to enable validation of performance characteristics by an internationally recognized fire protection test and approval body (see Clause 1.9). It is not intended to indicate approval by the authorities having jurisdiction of the systems utilizing the agents included in Table 1.1. It is essential that this Standard be used in conjunction with its separate, specific extinguishing agent contained in the appendices of this Standard. The characteristics of extinguishing agents and their suitability for classes of fire are also considered. NOTES: 1 This Standard should be read in conjunction with AS 1851.12, which covers inspection, testing and maintenance of gaseous fire extinguishing systems. 2 Gas pressures have been expressed in bars with the SI units (MPa, kPa) shown in brackets immediately following. 3 Where values have been obtained from sources such as NFPA, they have been conservatively rounded. 4 For the purposes of this Standard, fire extinguishing includes interting.
