Fire Protection Requirements for a Hydraulic Power Unit

Fire Protection Requirements for a Hydraulic Power Unit

Fire Protection Requirements for a Hydraulic Power Unit

(OP)
Hello,

I am working on a project for a Roll Splitter System in a Paper Mill.  This Roll Splitter has a Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) that allows the Guillotine to split large diameter rolls.  The Hydraulic reserviour is 100 gallons and there is a 30HP motor pumping the oil through the system.  My question is what is the max size reseriour that does not require fire protection?  Also what codes governs the fire protection requirements for this system.  Your help with this is greatley appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jason
