Generator Sprinkler Temperature Rating Requirement

[engggu]

Dear Experts,

Do we have any sprinkler temperature color coding or requirements to be installed with Pre Action System for generator room.

Thank you.

Your sprinkler temp. rating should be at least more than 28C, 50F than the maximum anticipated room temperature.

I would use 286 Deg.

Sprinkler plans show the protection criteria for the pump room with a diesel engine–driven pump based on Ordinary Hazard Group 2. Is this protection criteria acceptable?

ANSWER: No. The fire pump room that houses a diesel engine–driven fire pump will also include a dieselfuel supply. Since the presence of this fuel is considered storage of a combustible liquid, the protection criteria is required to be Extra Hazard Group 2

11.3.3 The entire pump room shall be protected with fire sprinklers in accordance with NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, as an Extra Hazard Group 2 space.
