Height limit for FM200 systems?


Data center fire suppression, FM-200 Fire Suppression Systems

Is there a height limit when installing an FM200 system. I have noted in my research that many have stated a 12 foot maximum ceiling height, but I am unable to determine if this is across the board.

That 12 foot is per nozzle. If the room is higher than 12 feet another nozzle will be needed at a higher level. Siemens Sinorix System has a height of 16 feet per nozzle.
