Novec Calculator

This document provides calculations to determine the amount of NOVEC clean agent required for a fire suppression system protecting a data room measuring 20m x 5.25m x 4.3m. It calculates the net volume as 270 cubic meters. Using the NFPA 2001 standard, it determines the design concentration as 5.04% and accounts for a safety factor of 1.2, resulting in a required concentration of 5.04%. The calculation then determines the required amount of NOVEC agent is 195.6 kg or 97.8 kg in bottles. It also includes tables listing specifications for DOT and TPED transport containers, as well as manifolds with varying inlet sizes and configurations.

The amount of NOVEC agent required to achieve the design concentration shall be calculated from
the following Formula
Lenght = 20
Wide = 5.25
Hight = 4.3

Hazard Class = Class C


W = Weight of NOVEC (kg)
V = Net Volume of the Hazard = 270 (m3)
C = NOVEC Design Concentration = 4.2 %
sf = Safety factor = 1.2
Resulting Concentration = 5.04 %

Class A Fires : Fire in ordinary combustible materials, such as wood, cloth, paper, rubber, and many plastics. 80
Class B Fires : Fire in flammable liquids, oils, greases, tars, oil-base paints, lacquers, and flammable gases.
Class C Fires : Fire that involves energized electrical equipment where the electrical resistivity of the
the extinguishing media is of importance. 19.56347347

3-4 Design Concentration Requirements.


3-4.2.1 The flame extinguishing concentration for Class B fuels shall be determined by the cup burner method
described in Appendix B.
3-4.2.2 The flame extinguishing concentration for Class A fuels shall be determined by test as part of a
listing program. As a minimum, the listing program shall conform to UL 2127, Standard for Inert Gas
Clean Agent Extinguishing System Units, or UL 2166, Standard for Halocarbon Clean Agent Extinguishing
System Units, or equivalent.
3-4.2.3 The minimum design concentration for a Class B fuel hazard or an only manually actuated system
shall be the extinguishing concentration, as determined in 3-4.2.1, times a safety factor of 1.3.
3-4.2.4 The minimum design concentration for a Class A surface fire hazard shall be the extinguishing
concentration as determined in 3-4.2.2, times a safety factor of 1.2.
3-4.2.5 Minimum design concentration for Class C hazards shall be at least that for Class A surface fire.
