ANECHOIC
CHAMBERS PRESENT
UNIQUE CHALLENGES FOR SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
For
years research organizations and industry have used
anechoic chambers to conduct research and testing on technology
that directly impacts society and the environment.
The unique environment of anechoic chambers allows precise and
demanding testing of the technology of today, by offering an ambient
free and echo-free enclosure. The necessary sound absorption level of 99% to
100%, or a reflected sound pressure level of 10% or less, is created by lining walls,
ceiling and floors with deep sound absorbing wedges or panels. This presents special challenges
for effective sprinkler systems that must extend beyond these materials
in order to quickly mitigate any fire or smoke hazard.
Sprinkler Innovations Retractable Telescoping Sprinkler Head meets these
special challenges head on, and answers them with innovative technology to improve
the competency of your anechoic chamber.
A
STEP AHEAD IN SPRINKLER TECHNOLOGY—RESET, DON'T RESCHEDULE
Test the sprinkler system with a minimum disruption
of anechoic testing.
The
regular trip tests necessitated by anechoic materials cause
disruptions and delays
in anechoic testing and cut into profitable
testing schedules. Sprinkler Innovations Retractable Telescoping
Sprinkler Head presents an immediate solution to this problem.
The Retractable Telescoping Sprinkler Head automatically retracts
and resets itself.
The trip test is run, and when the system is depressurized, the Retractable Telescoping Sprinkler Head resets itself.
There is no need to remove items or anechoic materials from
the chamber in order to reset the sprinkler heads.
