Pipe Test Pressure
Pipe Test Pressure
(OP)
In designing a dry open sprinkler deluge system what would be the test pressure of the pipe used just before the open sprinkler. Does this dry pipe which is open to atmosphere requires a pressure test?. It is a ASTM A 53 pipe. Kindly inform.

RE: Pipe Test Pressure
24.2.1.12 When deluge systems are being hydrostatically tested, plugs shall be installed in fittings and replaced with open sprinklers after the test is completed, or the operating elements of automatic sprinklers shall be removed after the test is completed.
