NFPA 2010 Fixed Aerosol Fire Suppression Systems Standard

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of NFPA 2010 testing. This standard contains minimum requirements for stationary aerosol fire suppression systems. It is intended for use by those who purchase, design, install, test, inspect, certify, list, operate and maintain fixed aerosol fire suppression systems so that the equipment in question can function as intended during its lifetime.

NFPA 2010 provides guidance and information to help protect electrical and telecommunications power equipment, server rooms, rail vehicles, engine rooms and other areas where these extinguishing systems are used. The standard applies to the design, installation, operation, testing and maintenance of aerosol systems for total spill applications. The terms cover everything from listing, reviews and approval to security requirements and additional explanatory and reference material.

NFPA 2010 is a valuable resource for anyone responsible for keeping stationary aerosol fire suppression systems working properly.

Important changes include:

• Elimination of dispersed aerosol systems and deletion of all requirements not related to condensed aerosol systems for better clarity and conformity;
• Adding new provisions regarding the use of aerosol suppression systems in normally used spaces;
• Modified text to clarify that an enclosure integrity test is not required and to address leakage and compensation of enclosure ceiling height when determining aerosol agent quantity;
• General improvements for readability and clarity are included throughout.

Keep up with state-of-the-art stationary aerosol extinguishing systems to help improve fire protection and efficiency. This standard is a requirement for anyone who designs, purchases, installs, approves, tests, inspects, lists, operates and maintains these specialized fire suppression systems.
