The title of the article is: "MIC is not the primary cause of corrosion in 
fire sprinkler system - controlling oxygen corrosion is the key to 
preventing leaks"

That pretty well sums up the benefit of nitrogen systems.

There was an article about corrossion in fire sprinkler systems in the 
last AFSA magazine edition.
It was written by an expert on corrossion, you may want to find that 
article and call him.

They're most likely talking about using nitrogen cylinders, not nitrogen 
ompressors.  Rationale is that the cylinders require no maintenance, no 
power, 
tc.   Big problem is if you have a leaky system you can deplete the 
nitrogen at 
he most inopportune moments, (holidays, shutdowns, weekends, middle of the 

ight, etc) and then you have a false trip.  It's hard to replace the 
eliability of a local air compressor.
Corrosion is typically not even a thought when it comes to this option, 
it's 
sually all about $$$$$$$.
Personally I try to dissuade any client from going this route when they 
bring up 
he idea.

ubject: RE: Nitrogen compressors
Has anyone installed a Nitrogen compressor on a pre-action system? Have a 
series 
f Data Centers with existing pre-action systems, where the owner is 
requesting 
itrogen to replace air compressors.
hey think there is a corrosion advantage? Anyone have any info on that? 
Can MIC 
urvive or grow in a Nitrogen rich environment? I know that nitrogen 
compressors 
re not "Pure" nitrogen, so is there enough oxygen to feed the MIC?
Any help appreciated.
