These tests require extinguishment of fire initiated in open vessels and within enclosures fueled with flammable liquid. In each case, these fires are allowed to progress to maximum intensity before the system is actuated. The time of actuation in these tests is well beyond the time that a detector would take to detect the fire and actuate the system. Other tests required by this testing laboratory are as follows: 1. Fuel in depth splash tests under a minimum hose Tength, maximum temperature, and minimum clear- ance condition to ensure that the nozzle does not ‘cause splashing of fuel. 2. Operational flow rate tests at the minimum, average, and the maximum temperatures, with maximum and minimum hose lengths. 3, Cycle tests on all mechanical and electrical devices to determine their structural integrity CAUTION: Ansul Fire Protection recommends that all pre-engineered dry chemical vehicular systems employing carbon dioxide expellant gas cartridges be restricted to Installation in areas where the ambient temperature is never less than 32° F. (O° G), nor exceeds 125° F. (52* C) if ambient temperatures in the area of expellant gas cartridge location may fall below 32° F. (0° C), or exceed 125" F. (52° C.), up to and including 210° F. (99° C), the expellant gas shall (mandatory) be nitrog BASIC EXTINGUISHER The basic single unit extinguishing system consists of a dry chemical tank filled with Ansul FORAY (monoam- monium phosphate base) dry chemical. A carbon dioxide of nitrogen cartridge is included to pressurize the dry chemical tank upon automatic detect manual actuation.

Depressing the actuator plunger punctures the seal on the cartridge. The released pressure is transmitted to the pneumatic actuator/cartridge receiver (. A safely relief vaive (3) at this point prevents too large an actuation pressure build-up. The pressure causes a seal in the expellant gas cartridge (4) to be pierced. This releases the expellant gas which is then fransmitted to the dry chemical tank (5) where it fluidizes LT-A-101 SYSTEM NOTE: Maximum number of A-101 systems that can be actuated simultaneously is eight. This number includes A-101-10, A-101-20 and A-101-30 in any combination. BASIC INFORMATION 4182 Page7 the dry chemical before carrying it to the fire hazard. A ‘bursting disc in the union assembly (6) prevents the flow of dry chemical until sufficient pressure is bullt up within the dry chemical tank. When the proper pressure Ig reached, the disc breaks allowing the gas/dry chemical mixture to flow to the nozzle(s) (7). The pressure at the nozzie(s) causes the nozzle cap to pop off (F-Ye nozzle) of the self-closing cap to open (3C-¥e nozzle), and the dry chemical to be discharged. ‘A-101 SYSTEM FIGURE 25 IN CASE OF FIRE When a fire starts, the way you react is very important. As soon as you become aware of a fire, do the following four things: 1, Tum the machine off. 2. Quickly actuate the A-101 system by pulling th safety ring pin and pushing down the plunger on the actuator. 3. Get away {rom your machine. Take a hand portable extinguisher along if you can. 4, Stand by with hand portable extinguisher. Explanation If you leave the machine running, it may add fuel to the fice or restart the fire with sparks. React quickly so the fire is caught before it grows too large. By leaving the immediate fire area, you protect yourself from windblown flames, explosions or other dangers created by the fire. Heat remaining from the fire could cause reignition after the A-101 system has discharged. Because of this, it is, important that someone stand by, at a safe distance, with a hand portable extinguisher. This standby should be maintained until all possibility of reignition is past. What to Expect When an A-101 system discharges, there is considerable noise accompanied by clouds of dry chemical, While breathing foreign particles is not pleasant, the agent FORAY Is non-toxic and exposure during a fire will not harm you. Alter the Fire is Out Machinery should not be restarted until it has been serviced and cleaned (water may be used to remove the ‘ry chemical), Immediately recharge the fire suppression system. You needed it once, you may need it again. BASIC INFORMATION 44-82 Pages RECHARGE 1 2 Pull ring on safety relief vaive to relieve actuation pressure.

Knowledge of the A-101 capabilities is required and is dealt with in the Basic Information Section of this manual. Knowiedge of the fire hazards that exist in the equipment to be protected is also required. This will be obtained through the investigation described below. Finally a good under- standing of federal and local fire protection codes and standards is necessary. No one should begin designing ‘without previously becoming familiar with the applicable codes. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION Having read about the A-101 system and the basic terminology and operation of the system, you should now begin to identify the fire hazards in the equipment to be protected. Every foreseeable hazard must be Identified now while you have design flexibility; once the system is installed, adding protection for another hazard becomes more difficult. Note that the A-101 system is designed only for the protection of specified equipment from the foreseeable hazards that exist due to that equipment and its operation. The areas of protection are fixed at installation and are limited in number. An A-101 does not remove the need for a hand portable fire ‘extinguisher on the equipment. Fuel spills, welding (repair) heat or other unforeseeable causes may result in fires not having A-101 protection. The A-101 system protects the ‘areas with high likelihood of fire and potential for high damage; seldom would an A-101 be designed to protect every square inch of the equipment to be protected. Let us begin to identity the hazards. 4. Find where fuel, hi together A lire hazard exists whenever fuel, heat, and oxygen are found together. The presence of two of these three does not constitute a hazard; all three must be present. In most applications, oxygen will be present everywhere, and only heat and fuel must be added. Heat is usually found around a vehicle's motor and exhaust system. Pumps, turbochargers, and electric motors produce heat. Bearings, brakes and gears create heat also. Finally, remember that electrical wiring and switches, especially high current equi ment, may generate heat and sparks. Heat proximity due to type of work or other environmental factors must also be considered. Fuel includes gasoline, diese! fuel, engine oil, lubricating oil, ‘hydraulic oll (even Tire retardant hydraulic oll) and propane. Rubber hose, plastics and other similar petro-chemical products are also fuels. Leaves, cloth, wood and electrical insulation are not usually petro-chemicals, but are fuels. As with heat, fuels from the equipment's environ ment should be considered. A lumbering industry vehicle exposed to sawdust and leaves would be a {good example. and oxygen may occur HAZARD IDENTIFICATION 4182 Page 20 2. Review Hazards. In reviewing hazards, you should consider some factors in addition to the mere presence or absence of oxygen, heat and fuel. The interaction between heat and fuel is different for different fuels. A spark will certainly start gasoline burning, but is not likely to affect rubber hose or wood. Thus temperature and fuel must be con- sidered together. Propagation of a fire may cause a hazard to be larger than originally considered. Liquid fuel may drip, ‘splash of flow to carry the fire some distance from its starting point. Remember also that an easily lit fuel may catch fire from a nearby hazard, even though not originally considered a hazard ‘itself Radiation, sparks, or conduction through metal can carry heat to an area where it would not normally exist. One more important area for consideration is the fire history of the equipment to be protected, or similar equipment. This may be available through company records. The operator of the equipment may have years of experience, and be able to identify the locations of previous fires. The operator might -'~9 know of special hazards, such as a hydraulic!» that frequently comes loose at a given point. Be sure the operator knows what you are seeking, and he can help. next page contains ane) Identification process. It is provided to assist and guide you in the conduct of hazard analysis for every vehicle you protect. Several additional examples of hazard analysis and system design layout appear in the System Application Options Section of this manual EXAMPLE — CABLE LOG SKIDDER ENGINE COMPARTMENT Fire Protection Considerations Examination of this type log skidder revealed several primary areas for the likelihood of a fire occurrence. Both Sides and the top of the engine are usually covered with ‘grease and oil, The pan area under the engine is usually Sovered with grease and oil combined with a consider- able amount of Class A material from the wooded environment, This entire area is exposed to the high engine temperatures and will usually become rapidly favolved in flame if a fire should occur elsewhere. The compartment directly under the operator's seat contains ‘hydraulic pump with connecting hoses and a pan area which collects hydraulic oil. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION 41-82 Page 21 PARKING, ise BRAKE CABLE REEL FIGURE 29 The rear portion of the skidder contains the parking brake dise which can become quite hot if accidentally Teft-on by the operator. In addition, the hydraulically operated cable winch is usually covered with hydraulic ‘Oil and an assortment of Class A material such as dried leaves and twigs. PREPARATION ‘Alter you have pinpointed the hazards, you can begin planning the placement of system components. Note fhat laying out the system on paper will allow you to be sure that your approach is practical and does not exceed the hose length limitations. Planning now may avoid having to move system components later. The following Sections indicate the proper steps to take in laying out your system, beginning with system piping (hose) limitations.

When dry chemical-gas mixtures change directions, as through an elbow or a tee, the greater mass dry chemical particles are thrown to the outside by centrifugal force. The gas will traverse to the inside of the bend. Thus, a separation of the two components will occur. If a tee follows this change of direction where separation can occur, and if this tee lies in such a plane that the dry chemical particles can proceed through one branch and the gas through the branch 180 degrees opposite, a certain minimum length of hose must be allowed from the elbow to the tee or from the first tee to the second tee in order to permit the dry chemical and {985 to Intermix before striking the ength required depends upon the hos Fifteen inches is required for % inch hose, 10 inches for Ye inch hose. — Eee REDUCING reoucine FIGURE 60 ~~ TRIPLE TEE 20 Hose OIAMETERS Minimum LENGTH REQUIRED: f rape Tee FIGURE 61 SYSTEM LAYOUT 4482 Pagesd DISTRIBUTION TEE. vate 20 HOSE DIAMETERS.

In some cases, you will find that the hazard is too large to be covered by ne nozzle. When this happens, space your nozzles to ‘get maximum coverage of that hazard area. Getting the Best possible coverage from your nozzles requires careful planning and consideration. Look for chances to fget the most coverage from each nozzle, but never settle for coverage that Isn't complete. To be sure the coverage for each hazard is complete, ask yourself these questions: 1, Is the hazard within range? 2, Is it all within the nozzle's pattern? 3. Does projecting machinery stop the dry chemical from reaching parts of the hazard? Beware of those “shadow areas.” you are satisfied that a nozzle position is going to be effective, you must also check to see if it is practice 1. Is there a secure place to attach the nozzle bracket? I not, can a place be created there? 2. Would a nozzle be safe there or could it be knocked loose? Would it be in the way? 3.

A-101 systems use two, four or six nozzles for each dry ‘chemical tank employed in the system. There- fore, the number of nozzles used in your layout must be two, four, six or some multiple of two, four, or six (up to eight two, four or six nozzle sets may be actuated by one remote actuator). Do not try to reduce your proposed number of nozzles to get @ number that will work. Instead, ‘add nozzles to reach the next larger multiple. Remember, you designed for the minimum acceptable number of nozzles — adding a couple of nozzles will only increase your safety factor, removing nozzles will mean that a hazard goes unprotected. If you add nozzles, use them to add coverage to a hazard that was difficult to protect; or if you debated over whether to cover something and decided not to, add coverage there with an extra nozzle.

Both sides and top of the engine are Usually covered with grease and oil where they are often Sxposed to high engine temperatures. The engine turbocharger mounted at the front and top of the engine is algo an ignition source. jn addition, any grease, oil or Tuel that falls from the engine will normally Collect on the pan area directly below the engine where it becomes mixed with an assortment of Class A material fom the operating environment. Although the heat directly on the pan is generally not great enough to Cause ignition, a fire elsewhere on the engine could fapidly propagate to the pan area. The transmission, torque converter and forward differ- ential area is adjacent to the engine compartment. There {g heat and the danger of fire propagation from there and from the hydraulic lines under the driver's compartment. Many of these hydraulic lines pass through a bulkhead to SYTEM APPLICATION OPTIONS 41-82 Page 53 TRANSMISSION / TORQUE CONVERTER PARKING BRAKE FIGURE 105 reach the front bucket. These lines may work loose, fubbing the front bulkhead and possibly breaking. The pan area under these hydraulic lines will then collect Spilled hydraulic oil from the lines. The parking brake ise is also located under the driver's compartment. Should the operator fail to release the brake, enough heat can be generated to cause a fire. Because the vehicle could be exposed to temperatures below 32° F.. (0° C.), alow temperature fire suppression System is required (LT-A-101-30 dual system employing 8 dry chemical discharge nozzles).

Each is mounted on the side of the engine ‘compartment in front and Is aimed toward the rear and center to completely cover the engine sides Nozzles § and 6 are mounted at the top of the engine compartment toward each side. Each is positioned to discharge toward the rear and center of the engine to protect the top of the engine and the turbocharger. Nozzle 7 Is located under the operator's compartment toward one side and aimed to discharge across the pan area. In addition to the pan, its discharge will protect the ing brake disc. FIGURE 106 Nozzle 8 Is also located under the operator's compart- ment but is positioned to discharge dry chemical on the hydraulic lines in the compartment. It is oriented so a portion of its discharge will pass through the front bulkhead to protect the hydraulic lines leading to the front bucket. The dry chemical tanks and expellant gas cartridges are mounted near the engine compartment. Here they are Safe from physical abuse and high temperatures, are accessible for service, and present no hose-run prob- lems. The dashboard actuator is located in the operator's compartment.

The environment in which the LHD works is highly abusive to the machines. They are most frequently ‘operated in extremely tight quarters, often times being slammed up against the sides of drifts and into muck piles. This not only causes damage to the machine and Its components, but also causes sparks and overstressed situations which could Initiate a fire if the appropriate conditions were present. In addition to this direct physical abuse, operators frequently over-stress the machines in other ways. Typical examples are: attempting 10 lift a load which exceeds the capacity of the machine, riding the braking ‘system, operating the vehicle with the parking brake on, shifting transmission from forward to reverse prior to Stopping, of any number of other actions which greatly increase the possibility of rupturing hoses and over- heating particular components of the machine. Obi ously, a combination of a spraying fuel (hydraulic or diesel) and a high temperature source (hot manifolds, or housings) could lead to a fire condition. The most likely fire that will occur on an LHD is one involving either combustible liquids, or electrical shorts ‘SYSTEM APPLICATION OPTIONS.

The engine area is a prime hazard containing large amounts of diesel, lubricating, and hydraulic olls and hot surfaces as ignition sources. The transmission area is @ secondary hazard containing fuel supplies but with nto ignition source. It Is protected because of its proximity to the engine area. The articulation area is a Collection area for hydraulic lines. There is no apparent source of ignition, but hot spots are known to develop in these lines. The hot spots develop because of extern friction or internal friction from high flow-throug.. restrictions. Fire originating in any other areas (such as dashboard, battery compartment, wheel brake or tires) are readily spotted by the operator and easily extinguished with a hand portable extinguisher ‘A-101-30 SYSTEM COMPONENT LOCATION LOAD-HAUL-DUMP A-101-30 Component Location Two types of nozzles are used in this system. A flat 180" fan pattern is used to sweep a fire prone surface or provide a soft pattern for total flooding, and a conical attern is used on the sides of the engine to direct the ry chemical to the critical area. Nozzle 1 is mounted just above the belly pan, aimed to completely cover the pan area. Nozzle 2 is mounted toward the rear and top of the engine compartment. It Is oriented to discharge dry chemical down and across the top of the engine. Nozzles 3 and 4 are used to provide protection for both sides of the engine. They are located to the rear of the compartment toward the extreme left and right, aimed at the vertical and horizontal centerline intersect point. Nozzle 5 is mounted in the transmission/torque converter section at the top to effect total flooding of the compartment. SYSTEM APPLICATION OPTIONS. 4482 Pages? FIGURE 109 Nozzle 6 is located over the articulation point, aimed downward to provide protection for the collection of hydraulic lines. The dry chemical tank is mounted outside the vehicle in a place where it is accessible, but relatively free from ‘Gamage due to abuse or high temperatures. Because the installation is relatively small, hose-run lengths do not affect the tank placement decision. The dashboard actuator is mounted where it Is readily accessible to the operator. The remote actuator is on the Outside of the vehicle, so that it is accessible from the Ground. Note also that the two actuators are separated, $0 they are unlikely to be simultaneously involved in flames. The hand portable should be placed along the operator's path of egress, and also be accessible {rom the ground. As with the remote actuator, a mounting place that is not near a known fire hazard is preferable. OPTIONAL — ANSUL “CHECKFIRE” ACTUATION AND DETECTION SYSTEM LOAD-HAUL-DUMP ‘Component Location* The primary area for a fire occurence includes tne engine, transmission/torque converter and articulation point. Tubing should be run around the upper perimeter of the hazard area and the belly pan. However, the engine area may have lift off covers so that no support is available for the tubing in parts of the engine area. If this is the case, it may be possible to weld supports in place and ‘attach the tubing to the supports. Care must be taken to avoid interfering with vehicle maintenance and to avoid exposing the tubing to the possibility of physical abuse. Invother areas, tubing may be secured to hydraulic or ‘other type hoses or to the frame or body members with the appropriate ties or clamps. “Refer proper Ansul Actuation and Detection System Installation, Inspection and Maintenance Manual.

Electric arcing at temporary splices Is the normal cause; the entire cable covering and coal dust from the mine provide fuel. Electrical power is also present at the controller wiring area, but this area is sealed and is not considered a hazard. Sealed areas are seldom considered hazards: ‘oxygen is excluded and any fire is contained, so there is, Tittle danger. In addition, this area presents little fuel. FIGURE 111 The hydraulic tanks and pumps provide both fuel (all common hydraulic oils will burn, and coal dust can collect unless the area is sealed) and heat (trom the pumps). In addition, a fire here has the greatest potential for danger due to the large supply of fuel and the potential for spreading. ‘The vehicle brakes provide the last hazard. They convert motion energy into heat energy, and the potential provided by that heat demands protection even though fuel may not be plentiful in that ar A-101 SYSTEM COMPONENT LOCATION MINE SHUTTLE CAR SYSTEM APPLICATION OPTIONS 44-82 Page 60 ‘A-101-20 Component Location Because of the size of the hazard and the persistence of fire in cable covering, two nozzles anda single dry chemical tank are assigned to the hose reel compart- ment, They are placed and aimed to provide the maximum direct coverage possible. While the use of 4 nozzles per tank is most common, the features of this hazard justify the 2 nozzle approach. ‘The hydraulic compartment is also a dangerous hazard requiring two carefully placed nozzles covering tanks, pumps and hose connectors. Coverage for the brakes is Brovided by a single nozzle for each. The dry chemical tanks are easily mounted, as shown, because of their reduced vertical space requirements. The expellant gas cartridges are placed next to them, but could easily be mounted horizontally nearby if desired. The chosen locations provide protection along with relatively easy access. The first of the two remote actuators is placed in the driver's compartment to provide actuation capability where it is most likely to be needed and exercised. The second is provided at a paint far removed from the first and well removed from the primary dangers (hose ree! and hydraulic equipment). FIGURE 112 ‘Ansul Material Listing PartNo. Qty.

Total flooding provides for flooding of an enclosure with sufficient dry chemical to extinguish any fire in the enclosure. There are two methods of local application — overhead where the nozzles are mounted directly above the hazards and tankside where the nozzles are mounted on the flammable material container.
