Maritime Installation of LOFLOW K15 Sprinklers LOFLOW K15 Sprinklers must be installed in pendent position. LOFLOW K15 Systems must be designed and installed in accordance with SOLAS Regulation II-2/12, with the exception of water density less than 5 litre/min.m2. LOFLOW Sprinkler systems must be hydraulically calculated with Hazen- Williams formulary, to provide the recommended minimum water pressure on the last nozzle to operate in the system. Solas and NFPA 750 require the systems toParameters have standing charge of fresh water. Occupancy Classification LOFLOW Sprinkler Type

Installation and Maintenance: LOFLOW K15 Sprinklers have small orifices when compared with traditional sprinklers. To minimise the risk of blocked sprinkler nozzle during operation, the sprinkler pipes must be flushed with fresh clean water through each branch pipe end. To avoid dirt in pipes before the sprinklers are installed. CAUTION: After the pipes have been flushed and the pipe plug removed, the inside pipe sucked threads must be cleaned for any sealing materials, before the LOFLOW sprinklers are installed. LOFLOW sprinkler must always be installed in pendent position using special purpose System Sprinkler materiel Pipe system material Extinguishing agent spanner from GW Sprinkler A/S.
