2 MANUAL UTILIZATION.
There are two different useful ways of how to use this manual. Firstly, following the index
accurately (mainly when is the first system to be installed and the personnel has no
previous experience) and secondly, as a reference book. In both cases, it is necessary the
use of the drawings provided with the system as a reference.
In the first case, the manual layout allows the installation of a system chronologically. It is
also convenient to refer to the drawings in order to identify the position and number of the
components to be installed.
As for the second case, this manual is used when the installer, with previous experience,
checks in the first place the drawings provided with the system. Since the denomination and
technical data sheet of each part appears in them, each component is easily located in the
index and therefore, the appropriate chapter can be consulted.
Intention of this manual is to give specific instructions for installation, maintenance and
testing requirements for LPG systems and components. In any case is intended to
accomplish any requirements of the applicable and mandatory standards of design and
installation of systems.

3 GENERAL.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) fire extinguishing systems manufactured and designed by LPG are
designed as heavy duty equipment, reliable and easy to mount, with simple test routines to
check their operating condition as described in this manual. However, LPG Tcnicas en
Extincin de Incendios S.A. wishes to clarify the following:
All personnel who are assigned to the equipment should be properly trained in its
use, inspection, tests and maintenance. LPG recommends at all times the adoption
of safe working practice in accordance with current health legislation and safety
procedure. It is recommended that personnel in charge of installation and
maintenance of the fire extinguishing system should be properly trained in its safe
use and should read the whole of this manual before initiating any of the operations
mentioned above.
Due to possible false alarm of the detection system (if installed) produced by dust or
smoke caused by installation works, the detection system in the area should be
isolated or disconnected prior to staring and during the assembly operations.
All the equipment and pipe system should be installed in accordance with the project
drawings. Systems are made up of units tested within limitations. The system
designer must be consulted whenever changes are planned for the system or area of
protection. Constructive drawings should be corrected and modifications included in
the project.
An authorized installer or system designer must be consulted after the system has
discharged.
Whichever sealing compound is used, never cover the two first threads to ensure internal
cleanliness of the pipe system.

5 INSTALLATION.
During system Installation it is recommended to make continual use of drawings enclosed
with component delivery. This will help to understand the system better.
As an example Annex I consists of standard drawings showing different models of carbon
dioxide (CO2) cylinder banks. In these the arrangement of cylinder bank, connection of
single release system and arrangement of standard support systems can be seen. These
drawings are enclosed as an example, however for installations accompanied by specific
drawings, these will prevail.
Prior to starting installation check the drawings and lists of materials to ensure that all
components have been delivered. Check that the components are not damaged. Any
defective components should be replaced. Check the position of the cylinders and lengths of
pipes in the drawings. Check that there are no fixed barriers, which may require
modification of cylinder location, brackets and lengths of pipes. The Project Engineering
Department should be informed of any deviation from the drawings.
Prior to starting installation check the cylinder bank location (generally indicated in the
drawings). The location advisable for the cylinder bank would be a room as near as possible
but outside of hazard protected, big enough to house the equipment and to facilitate
Installation and maintenance operations. The equipment should not be exposed to severe
weather conditions, direct contact with flame, excessive humidity and safe from
unauthorised handling and mechanical or chemical damage.
Required material for equipment installation:
White Vaseline
Hacksaw
Monkey wrench
Ladders, scaffolds
Clamps, pliers
Flexometer
Magnetic level
Electric Tester
copper pipes
Rounded Spanner.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
N S309004
Thoroughly clean the area where the system is going to be located. Check the
drawing measurements to ensure that the cylinder bank fits perfectly in
location chosen.
Verify that the floor where the system is going to be mounted is as flat as
possible.
The wall where the bracket is going to be fixed (if necessary) must be solid
and in perpendicular position from the floor (avoid partition walls, Pladur or
similar).
If the bracket has to be fixed to a partition wall, plates to support the bracket
on the opposite face of the partition wall should be used in accordance with
drawing:
Nut
Support plate
Partition
The Installation of the bracket and the position of manifold depend on whether the bracket
is fitted with vertical side support column or not and whether connection to pipe system is
vertical or to the side.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
N S309004
The characteristic of this type of bracket is that the vertical support columns are included
which may be fixed directly to wall and floor. This configuration gives stability and rigidity to
the cylinder bank assembly.
The following models are included within this family:
a) Single row bracket: All bank cylinders are aligned in a single row and the weight
of the manifold pipe rests on the bracket structure.
b) Double row bracket: All bank cylinders are aligned in two parallel rows and the
weight of the manifold pipe rests on the bracket structure.
c) Bracket with weighing device: The cylinders can be aligned in a single row or in
two parallel rows. The cylinders are supported on the bracket structure.
Enlarged drawings of different models of brackets are enclosed in Annex I. Refer to them for
identification of each element described in the written procedure.
Attention:
The following points should be considered when faced with the job of Installation one of
these brackets:
1.
A drawing of the mounted system is delivered with every equipment supplied and at
least a standard enlarged drawing with the bracket. It is essential to understand these
drawings thoroughly prior to start Installation.
2.
3.
4.
5.
When performing pre-Installation it is necessary to take into account the fixing system
of the different structure parts. Vertical support columns incorporate some welded or
screwed lugs on their sides. The purpose of these lugs is to hold the cylinder bank
crosspieces1. Correct connection between the vertical support column and the
crosspiece is described in the following figure.
Tapped plate
Vertical
column
Crosspiece
Screw
Lug
6.
The manifold seats2 are mounted directly onto the vertical support columns. Depending
on the cylinder bank model, manifold seats may differ according to their position on the
cylinder bank. It is essential to consult the system drawing to determine the exact
position of each.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Attention:
N S309004
7.
Once pre-Installation is performed, put them in their final position taking into
consideration the required distance for connection between the manifold pipe and the
nozzle pipe system. When accurate location is found, tighten all screws, which ensure
the connections between support vertical columns and the crosspieces to make the
structure rigid. Align the different structure components vertically and horizontally so as
not to distort the shape or position of bracket.
8.
Place the two bank cylinders which are farthest apart from each other onto brackets and
tighten. For cylinder banks consisting of 8 or less cylinders, one of them may be the
pilot cylinder. Align the valve outlet as indicated in system drawing.
Attention:
9.
Locate the manifold pipe3 onto its seats and make level fitting the height of each one of
them. Warning: the system is not fastened onto any fixed part in the building
yet. Take the necessary precautions to prevent the assembly from falling over.
10. Place the manifold check valves for each of the cylinders presented. It is not necessary
to perform final installation of these parts.
11. Place discharge hoses between cylinder valves and the check valves. It is not necessary
to perform final installation of hoses.
12. Find the best location for the manifold with respect to the location and position of the
discharge hose. Compare with the cylinder bank drawings. Once proper location of
manifold is found, that is final position of bracket. Independently of the representation
of the draws, it is possible that for a perfect adjustment all the cylinders must be turned
a little on themselves by rows. All of them must be turned in the same sense.
13. Check the vertical and horizontal level of the cylinders and mounted parts of the
brackets prior to marking anchoring points on the floor and wall. It is possible to drill
taking as a guide those fixing holes on the brackets. Fix bracket into its final position.
High-power chemical or mechanical fixing plugs should be used for floor and wall fixing.
Do not use plastic plugs.
14. Mount the remainder of bank cylinders onto the bracket and finish the metallic
structure. It is very important that all cylinders are in the same direction and vertically
levelled so as to prevent problems when installing discharge hoses.

15. Fix the block screws. If it is considered advisable, once the system is mounted, drill the
vertical column and the seat and place a screw as it is show on the scheme below.
16. When all the cylinders are mounted with their hoses and check valves and all assembly
is fixed and secured, then it is possible to connect the manifold pipe to the nozzle
system.
17. Carry out the installation of the remainder cylinder bank parts in accordance with the
instructions described in this manual.

Crosspiece: Metallic piece, which is, mounted horizontally joining two vertical support columns.
Manifold seat: Metallic piece which supports the manifold pipe weight. It has a square shape and is always
mounted on vertical support columns.
Manifold pipe: Length of pipe, which collects all the gas, discharged from the cylinder bank and directs this to
the nozzle system.

Attention:
High power chemical or metallic fixing plugs should be used for fixing bracket onto the wall.
Do not use plastic plugs. If the wall is not strong enough carry out Installation as described
in 5.1.1.
It is very important never to install nozzles directly at cylinder outlet for two
reasons. Firstly, if nozzle is installed directly on valve outlet there are many possibilities that
the nozzle will be at a person's height. In case of cylinder discharge (accidental or
otherwise) pressure released could cause serious injuries to personnel who might be
somewhere near the cylinder.
Secondly, the strength of reaction produced by the discharge is always generated at the gas
outlet. If coupled to the cylinder outlet, the result could be that the wall bracket could be
violently pulled out.

The relief valve device on the head cap (made up of parts 20,21, 22 and 23) prevents
accidental cylinder discharge caused by micro leakage of pressure produced by some
release devices.
The safety disk (10) is set ready to burst and release the internal cylinder pressure when
the pressure reaches values slightly inferior to the cylinder hydraulic pressure. This device
prevents an excessive rise in pressure (for example, due to over heating) that may cause
the assembly to explode.
The burst disk (19) allows actuation of manual and pneumatic release devices. When this
disk bursts by means of the release system connected to it, the valve opens. Its set
pressure does not allow bursting caused by cylinder over pressure.
Note:
For any installation or maintenance operation, the valve head cap (8)
must remain dismantled as a safety measure. when any Installation,
maintenance or test operation is finished, do not forget to replace the
head cap. hand tighten, check that head cap sealing "o" ring (7) is
mounted in its interior.

LPG Valves make use of the cylinder internal pressure for opening.
The only way to activate valve is by making the piston move downwards (1).
When valve is at rest, pressure is retained by the sealing element (2) and the release disk
(3).
When the release is activated manually by pulling the lever (4) backwards and the hammer
piston (5) is pushed downwards, this will cause the release disk (3) to burst. At that
moment the pressure retained by the release disk is released and directed over the piston
(1). Given that the ratio of surface area between the piston (1) and the sealing element (2)
is 3:1, the piston moves downwards and opens the valve.

The design of the valve allows the assembly/disassembly of the heads when the cylinders
are filled and pressurized.
The head (pneumatic or manual lever) should be removed in order to avoid accidental
discharges during the installation or maintenance operations and whenever there is some
kind of manipulation on the valve.
Installation:
The valve is supplied assembled on the cylinder. None of its components (with the exception
of the release heads) should be dismantled. The assembly of the devices on the valve
(discharge hose and release devices) will be done later following the same order as shown
in its description.

Mount the pressure switch into its housing on the opposite side to the valve gauge.
Prior to this, remove the factory installed cap.
Slowly hand thread the pressure switch (check that sealing 0 ring is present) onto
the coupling until reaching the small bleed housed inside valve. At that moment a
slight pressure release will be heard. Loosen turn until pressure release stops
and then tighten quickly so as to prevent gas leakage. The threaded union does not
require a sealing element as it is sealed by means of the O ring.
Tighten the pressure switch using a fixed wrench but do not force the joint.
Check for leakage for 10 minutes with soapy water prior to considering the
operation complete.
If when installing the pressure switch, the released pressure ejects the O ring
seal, push slightly the pressure switch filter as shown in the drawing.
Carry out the electrical connection when installation is complete. Specified in this manual in
section 5.5 Electrical Installation.

As a legal requirement, it is compulsory for each cylinder to have its own identifying label.
Therefore, it is very important for the installer to have each label attached to its cylinder as
soon as the installation is finished. To perform this operation, the manufacturing lot number
on each cylinder shoulder (described in section 5.2.8.1) should be compared with the
identifying numbers printed on the labels supplied. The labels should be attached directly
onto cylinder body, in a visible location and in a normal reading position. To facilitate
adhesion of the labels, first wipe away dirt, dust, oil or grease from cylinder area where the
label is going to be placed.

Description:
The installation of selector valves (1,2) onto the discharge manifold (3) allows the
coverage of several hazards with one single cylinder bank. The release system
connection for the selector valves depends on the number of selector valves and
the number of cylinders which are to be discharged through each valve. Use the
specific installation drawing for the system to be mounted. In the example
represented in above figure, the cylinder bank covers two zones under the fire
hazard. Both zones require all four bank cylinders for their protection. Once the
pilot cylinder (6) is released, gas flows to the solenoid valve + manual release
(4,5).
- When the solenoid valve actuated is (4), the gas flows to the selector valve (1). The
selector valve opens and the gas continues to flow through the release line until it
opens the four cylinders. Carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishing agent is discharged
towards manifold and comes out through opened selector valve (1) towards the pipe
system directed to appropriate zone.
- When the solenoid valve actuated is number (5) the operation of cylinder bank is
similar to above operation but discharge is generated through the selector valve (2).
The solenoid valves + manual release (4,5) may be electrically or manually operated. It is
important to have each valve marked indicating the zone that it protects so as to prevent
the misunderstanding in case of manual operation. Connections between the pilot cylinder
and the cylinders are carried out with copper pipe (7). A non-return valve (8) is located on
the outlet of selector valve release line. The release line is provided with a decompression
screw (9) and a depressurisation valve (10).

manual release (4,5).
Mount the pneumatic heads (12) on the cylinders. Mount the outlet pilot cylinder "T" and
depressurisation valve (10) and decompression screw (9). Join the cylinders by flexible
hoses (13). Lastly, install the copper pipe (7). Copper conduits should be straight or 90
curved. Observe that the pipe is not flattened or damaged on curves so as not to obstruct
passage of pressure. On runs longer that 300 mm carry out an expansion bend in the
middle, that is, a full circumference which will absorb the water hammer. The sealing for the
copper pipes by means of a bicone. The fixing of the bicone to the copper pipe should be

With regard to the electrical installation, it is important not to confuse the electrical
connections of the solenoid valves + manual release (4,5). Otherwise it is possible that the
extinguishing order dictated by the detection system may produce discharge of
extinguishing agent into a different enclosure from that specified. Therefore, it is advisable
to identify separately each solenoid coil.
IMPORTANT: It is advisable that the length of cables belonging to
each solenoid valve be such that it will not be
possible to mix up their position (the long cable for
the solenoid valve which is farthest away and the
shorter cable for the one that is nearest).

The pipe supports should be located next to the pipe joints, to elbows and to changes
in pipe direction.
The supports should connect the pipe system directly to the building structure and
should not be used to support other objects. The parts of the building where supports
are fixed should be strong enough to take the load (see table for design load).
Otherwise, additional straps should be fixed to other resistant parts. Only pipes with
nominal diameters less than or equal to 50 mm may be attached to the metallic
structures in the form of trusses or concrete slabs (the design should be approved by
the authorities). The concrete fastening plugs should be located at least 150 mm away
from the edge of the slab.
The distance between the nozzle and its support should be the shortest possible:
For pipes with a smaller or equal diameter to 25 mm, the maximum distance
from support to nozzle should be 01 m.
For pipes more than 25 mm diameter, the maximum distance from support to
nozzle should be 025 m.
Support type hangers or manifold "U" fixings are recommended. Pipe brackets and
other fittings for holding pipes, should completely surround the pipe and be closed.

Once coil is energised, insert a suitable easily magnetised object (such as a light
screwdriver) through its centre hole. Proper operation is confirmed if a magnetic field is
produced which retains the metallic object inserted into the coil hole. The minimum
actuating time is 3 minutes during which a gradual heating of the coil may be observed.
Repeat the operation with each of the solenoid valves in the same release system.
To prevent accidents, prior to replacing each coil into its stem, (it is vital not to mix up
each coil position) using the same metallic object check for traces of magnetisation
through the coil hole which may activate the valve.
IMPORTANT:
Slowly place the coil onto the centre stem. If there is any magnetism left, controlled
leakage will take place through the top of the main valve. If so, remove the coil quickly
to interrupt the leakage. Such leakage shows that solenoid valve is still being supplied.
Shut off that supply.

If for whatever reason controlled leakage is produced through the top of the cylinder
main valve and it would be difficult to eliminate, to prevent the slow discharge of the
cylinder, proceed to carry out 2 or 3 rapid clamping with the energised coil (pulses not
to exceed 1 second) on its stem to stop the leakage. If the leakage is uncontrolled,
contact the Technical Service of LPG Tcnicas en Extincin de Incendios, S.A.
Once the coil is replaced onto its stem, replace the hexagonal nut and the valve head
cap.
NOTE: For whatever reason it is decided to SEPARATE THE MAIN VALVE BODY*
FROM A SOLENOID VALVE STEM it is imperative to disconnect the main valve
gauge first. This operation shuts off the pressure supply to the solenoid valve.
CAUTION: THE CYLINDER IS FILLED AT HIGH PRESSURE. See 5.2.1, 5.2.2 and
5.3.8. for further information.
In case of malfunction, LPG recommends not to dismantle the stem of the solenoid
valve but to submit the Master cylinder + solenoid + valve assembly to the LPG
technical service department for verification.

7 MAINTENANCE.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) fire extinguishing systems should be subject to a preventive
maintenance program ensuring the proper operation in case of fire. This program and the
maintenance operations should comply with regulations applicable in the country or region
where the system is installed. In this section applicable Spanish Law is taken as a basis for
the installation maintenance. As a manufacturer, LPG advises all system owners and end
users to demand, as a minimum, execution of the maintenance operations described in this
manual.
The safety manager as well as personnel in charge of maintenance operations should be
properly trained in system operation, the required safety conditions for maintenance and
the effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) on personnel and property. They should also know and
have access to system connection drawings, design project, maintenance and inspection
files, including the hand-over inspection.
During maintenance operations, which require execution of any of the tests described in
section 6, wear a protection mask and gloves.
In the event that an carbon dioxide (CO2) system is designed to consist of a release abort
system (Cut-off valve) prior to each maintenance operation set such a system in the
"ISOLATION" position. This valve position directs the pilot cylinder discharge towards an
escape external to the system, thus preventing the actuation of the cylinder bank. When the
maintenance operations are finished, do not forget to reset the release abort valve to its in
service position.
Regulatory requirements for maintenance of the carbon dioxide (CO2) installations.
Given that carbon dioxide (CO2) systems are fire fighting elements, at a domestic level
(Spain), they are covered in the Regulatory application frame for Installations and Fire
Fighting Apparatus (RD. 1942/1993). Annex III consists of extracts from the most
important Regulation points on system maintenance. In brief, this rule specifies the
following:
1st)
The last person responsible for the maintenance of the installation is the final user or
owner of such.
2nd)
In all cases, the maintainer as well as the user or owner, should keep written proof
of compliance of the preventive maintenance program, indicating, as a minimum, the
operations carried out, the results of verifications and tests and replacement of
defective parts carried out. Annotations should be up to date and should be at the
disposal of the appropriate official inspection services.
3rd)
LPG has carried out a maintenance program in compliance with all the Regulatory
specifications for Fire Fighting Installations and Apparatus, including other maintenance
operations recommended by LPG as a manufacturer. This program specifies the following
terms and operations:
Quarterly:
a)
Check the general condition of installation using the list in Annex III, Checklist for
maintenance inspection of gas systems.
b)
Check that the installation identification notices, the user and warning signs as well
as the cylinder adhesive labels are in their appropriate location.
c)
The safety apparel for system handling and maintenance are in perfect condition.
d)
Check the general condition of the check valves, joints. Check the absence of
obstructions that does not allow its right operation.
MU/CO/04/IN/M1
Rev. 00
Page 87/156
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
N S309004
Annually:
a)
Nozzles: in dusty atmospheres check that the discharge orifices are not obstructed.
b)
Releases: carry out an operating test for the solenoid valves. The test is described in
section 6.1.7. in this manual.
c)
Alarms: check the audible and visual function of the alarm devices, giving the
instructions from control panel. Check the pressure switch with locking device for
operation according to the test described in 6.1.5.
In unusually dirty and dusty environments the pipe distribution system should be
blown out with dry nitrogen, in accordance with section 6.1.3.
Carry out re-stamping of the cylinders (slave cylinders and pilot cylinders), in
accordance with the Regulations established by the Ministry of Industry and Energy
for Pressure Apparatus, MIE AP-7 Complementary Technical Instruction.
b)
Carry out a hydraulic test for integrity of the flexible hose and the manifold. This test
consists of subjecting the components to a hydraulic test, pressurising up to 15
times the component working pressure.

Page 89/156
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
N S309004
The automatic release signal comes from the detectors (6). The detectors operate by
sending a signal to the control panel (7) when a fire is detected inside the room.
The control station then initiates a fire extinguishing protocol, which may be different for
each installation, but it always includes, as a minimum, actuation of the alarm signals
(sirens, visual devices, etc.) during a delay time, which generally lasts 30 seconds. This
delay time is the time personnel inside the room have to vacate immediately and in
order to leave the room where the visual/audible alarm signals operate.
At the same time, the control panel sends an instruction to open the master cylinder valve
(3). At this moment it is IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP THE DISCHARGE OF THE
EXTINGUISHING AGENT, which will be produced imminently.
It is advisable to introduce simulated evacuation of personnel occupying the area protected
by carbon dioxide (CO2) during the 30 seconds discharge delay.
The pipe where gas from all cylinders is collected, is called the discharge manifold (4). A
pressure switch is located on the manifold (11), which sends a signal to the control panel to
indicate that the agent discharge has begun.
Gas flows through the pipe system to the nozzles (5) and is expelled at high velocity
towards the fire.
System manual actuation is also possible by means of the Release Push Button (9). This
device should only be used WHEN THE ROOM HAS BEEN VACATED. Use of this device
involves the same operation described above for actuation of the automatic fire detection
systems. If the delay time is over and the discharge has not been produced, actuate the
cylinder bank manually. (See 8.4. Actuation in the event of failure of fire extinguishing
system automatic actuation).
Gas is discharged from the nozzles at high velocity. So suitable means of room evacuation
should be provided, as far as possible from the direct reach of the nozzle. The strength of
extinguishing agent discharged is not enough to raise heavy objects (computers, tables,
cupboards, machines), nor raise personnel but it can raise papers, light books and movable
objects located near the discharge nozzle.
Appropriate warning signs should be affixed not only in the enclosure protected by the
installation but also at the cylinder storage areas. Appropriate warning signs should provide
instructions in case of the fire alarm. The storage area should be provided with instructions
for manual system actuation including requirements to previously check that the area to be
protected has been VACATED. (See 8.4. Actuation in the event of failure of fire
extinguishing system automatic actuation).
Appropriate warning notices should be affixed inside protected room informing its occupants
about the type of protection and modes of actuation in case of fire. All these signs should be
clearly legible and resistant to environmental conditions. It is advisable to provide adhesive
labels in red or green background and white letters. Notices should incorporate at least the
following messages:
MU/CO/04/IN/M1
Rev. 00
Page 90/156
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
N S309004
For better extinguishing action, all inlets of air which might re-ignite the fire should be
prevented. Once discharge is complete, wait a minimum of 30 minutes prior to activating
room ventilation, so as to prevent fire re-ignition. It is advisable to call the fire brigade at
the time of activation of room ventilation.

FAILURE
EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM AUTOMATIC ACTIVATION.
OF
FIRE
When extinguishing discharge is not released within delay time specified by the Main Panel
(see Main Panel technical instructions) plus pneumatic delay (30 s) from fire alarm or if you
can see a fire or the alarm system has failed to operate, WAIT UNTIL AREA IS VACATED to
manually actuate extinguishment. The following operations should be carried out quickly
and in order:
1.
The person in charge of manual operation should wear a helmet and safety glasses
which he will find in the storage area, next to the cylinder bank and close to the
warning signs containing the operational instructions for manual discharge.
2.
Visually check the condition of the cylinder bank (flexible hoses, gauges on cylinders
show correct pressure in accordance with labels, selector valves are closed, no leakage
lock off valve in operation position).
3.
For cylinder banks fitted with selector valves, identify the selector valve + manual
release device as appropriate to the zone to be flooded. The solenoid valves + manual
release device should be clearly marked indicating the zone that they protect. Open
manually (see 8.3.5. Manual Opening/Closing of selector valves). It is very important
to activate only the valve appropriate to the zone to be flooded, as in the event of two
or more valves actuating, agent discharge would be directed to several zones.
5.
For cylinder banks fitted with pneumatic time delay devices, abort delay time by
pulling its lever (see 8.3.4. Time delay abort).
6.
Operate the pilot cylinder release (see 8.3.2. Manual Lever Release Operation). This
operation opens the pilot cylinder valve and slave cylinder valves.
MU/CO/04/IN/M1

Prior to opening the door or to operating hazard ventilation where discharge has taken
place, wait for the arrival of the fire brigade.
2.
3.
Check visually condition of the carbon dioxide (CO2) installation within the hazard
(general pipe condition, nozzle condition). It is recommended to follow the appropriate
sections on "Check list for routine inspections for carbon dioxide (CO2) fire
extinguishing installations" (contained in Appendix III ).
Verify that all carbon dioxide (CO2) installation cylinders have been discharged ( check
that all pressure gauges indicate 0 bar. All weighing system control modules, if any,
showing red LED illuminated). Otherwise, remove the cylinder head caps manually.
Notify the LPG technical department. If it is not possible to remove head caps
manually DO NOT FORCE THEM. Call LPG technical personnel.
5.
Unlatch the pressure switch (see 8.3.1. Re-assembly pressure switch with locking
device).
6.
7.
Decompress the release line by means of the decompression screw. (see 8.3.6.
Release line decompression). In the event of cylinder banks with selector valves, for
depressurisation operation of the solenoid valves + manual release which control the
opening of the selector valves, the latter should be open.
8.
In the pilot or master cylinder slowly dismantle the manual actuator that will close the
valve. Some little pressure could be vent during this operation.
9.
Close the solenoid valves + manual release which control the selector valves, thus
cutting its electrical supply.
10.
11.
Close the selector valves (see 8.3.5. Manual Opening/Closing of selector valves) in
case they do not close after release line decompression.
12.
Visually check the condition of the carbon dioxide (CO2) installation within the hazard
(component general condition). It is recommended to follow the corresponding
sections on "Check list for routine inspections for carbon dioxide (CO2) installations ".
13.
Disassemble cylinders and odorizer from their brackets and send them to LPG to be
recharged as well as all damaged components for repair or replacement.
