  • Clean agent & inert gas: NFPA 2001 (FK-5-1-12, Novec-type; IG-541/100% N₂) with room integrity testing.
  • Fire alarm & detection: NFPA 72 (addressable panels, aspirating smoke, linear heat); flame detectors (UV/IR, IR³) and Ex-rated devices to IEC 60079 / ATEX.
  • Hydrants/monitors/hose reels: NFPA 24, EN 671; nozzles, cabinets, landing valves.
  • Fire pumps & tanks: NFPA 20 (diesel/electric, UL/FM controllers), NFPA 22 (water storage), test headers and flow meters.

Documentation & Testing

  • Hydraulic calculations, cause-&-effect, isometrics.
  • FAT/SAT, hydrostatic tests, loop checks; ongoing compliance per NFPA 25.
