IMPORTANT!
Different types of hoses have different min bending radius (see technical data sheet). Steel
elbows must be used if minimum radius cannot be met (see Appendix C for elbow specification).
IMPORTANT!
When installing into solid walls, solid metal conduit must be installed to allow for movement
of the hose (500mm slack) for future servicing and replacement of the hose. Solid metal protection must
also be used when the hose is restricted of lateral movement. This is necessary because when the hose is
not free to move it is more susceptible to being punctured accidentally. The hose or pipework should be
installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s design and installation manual and should be protected
against internal corrosion and internal scaling. Structural timbers should not be notched or bored in such a
way that the integrity of the structure is compromised.
IMPORTANT!
So fire separating is effective, every joint, or imperfection of fit, or opening to allow services
to pass through the element, should be adequately protected by sealing or firestopping so that the fire
resistance of the element is not impaired.

The sprayheads must be set up in a daisy chain configuration (see page 68) and
data cables must be
labelled IN and OUT
, so they can be correctly installed when connecting the sprayheads during the second
fix. It is recommended that the data cable(s), where possible, is loosely bound to the high-pressure hose.
Ferrules must be crimped onto the bare wires in preparation to connecting them to the relevant terminals.
