SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system Fire test criteria The system chosen for the Shuguang Hospital had to comply with NFPA750(2000), IMO Res. A.800-2001 as well as China’s design code for automatic sprinkler fire systems. The SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system for fire fighting from Danfoss was therefore tested according to the fire test procedures described in the above standard. The purpose of the test was to prove that an automatic water mist system achieved better results than comparable tests with sprinkler systems. To protect the Shuguang building, one pump unit with three high-pressure pumps PAH80 was used. A total of 224 nozzles were installed. The water mist system was first of all chosen over traditional sprinklers due to its high level of flexible and smaller space requirements. Secondly, the system is environmentally friendly and very safe, for example in connection with the evacuation of patients, because no chemical additives are used. Thirdly, with minimal consumption of water and virtually no water damage, it is very safe for the expensive medical equipment and apparatus. The hospital is very satisfied with this efficient, environmentally friendly and maintenance free system. After successful testing, the SEM-SAFE® high-pressure water mist system was approved by CNCF (the related China National Center for Quality Supervision).
