    Fitness Center Dehumidification

    there can be a lot of reasons for this.. if it is like this on all seasons(if it would be from outside I'd expect this on summer on north hemisphere), than it is from the humans. what is the room temperature setpoint and what temperature does the RTU's blow in? maybe you are blowing in too cold...

    pressure vessel for jockey pump and fire fighting system

    I've never hear that we need pressure vessels for fire fighting system. why would you put that there? to reduce the start-up time of the jockey pump? if this is the case you are using it with the same principle of booster sets so it should be about "1,2 x pump start-up pressure" so that it would...

    fire fighting for electrical rooms

    both of them are acceptable but do not use CO2 if you don't have a perfect maintenance team. It is toxic and can really suffocate people. I have CO2 installed in my building just to save a little money on the installation budget but now I cannot operate it as if something goes wrong, I could...

    pressure reducing valve

    If this is a 6 story building, I'm guessing that the pressure on basement is below 10 bars so the pipes and the other items should hold on churn+normal times. what I've done before is put orifice plates on the outlets that reduces the pressure on the hose to 6-7 bars so i haven't used any...

    electrical room protection

    thank you for your answer, do you think that by saying "Equipment is installed in a 2-hour fire-rated enclosure including protection for penetrations", are they talking about the panels or the room itself. the room is fairly large(more than 300 m3)and only have electrical equipment. if I don't...

    electrical room protection

    Dear all, I've found similar questions but not the exact answer. I have 3 electrical rooms with only circuit breakers, UPS and panels inside. According to NFPA 13@s below statement, I don't need to put any sprinkler or protection system inside. Now my question is for the third item. Is that...
