Good morning I trust that everyone is well I currently have a project in Geelong Australia where the product bulk stored within the buildings make for a extremely dusty environment when unloading. Sprinkler protection is proposed to protect the building and wanted to ask the question about “excessive loading of sprinklers” and what the best option would be to minimise this I am aware that NFPA 25 mentions this, our code in Australia does not mention this term but states that yearly the sprinklers must be visually checked and suggest that a more stringent maintenance routine be in place for these environments.
The product bulk stored is phosphate rock typically and is used for the fertiliser manufacturing plant across the road. Any suggestions to the above query would be much appreciated. Kind regards Michael Paul de Gabriele Fire protections engineer
