The PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler module is specially
developed for the design of fire protection systems in accordance with the NFPA13 and
NFPA15 rules. The Spray/Sprinkler module is ideal for all types of water-based systems,
including deluge, ringmain, sprinkler and foam solution systems.

Multiple pipe types
Key Features
The Sprinkler/Spray module can be run
with several options for deluge and sprinkler systems. For example, with the most remote
nozzle option, the Sprinkler/Spray will determine the hydraulically most
remote nozzle and set its flow to the required value. The user can specify the inlet
pressure or flow; alternatively, the overall flow density can be made to match the
requirements of the design rules.
The Sprinkler/Spray module is ideal
for firewater ringmains. Pump selection calculations may be carried out, or alternatively,
manufacturer's data for pumps can be used. It is possible to perform calculations for
different fire scenarios, and model breaks and blocks in the network with ease. Minimum
flow control valves can also be input.
A network in Sprinkler/Spray can have
up to 5 pipe types, which can be lined or unlined. The program has 8 schedules built in,
and the user can add other schedules, which can be stored in a library. Fittings data are
bult-in, with compliance with the NFPA rules.
