NOTE: This guide specification covers the

requirements for low-pressure carbon dioxide fire

extinguishing systems.

Comments and suggestions on this guide specification

are welcome and should be directed to the technical

proponent of the specification. A listing of

technical proponents, including their organization

designation and telephone number, is on the Internet.

Recommended changes to a UFGS should be submitted as

a Criteria Change Request (CCR).

Use of electronic communication is encouraged.

Brackets are used in the text to indicate designer

choices or locations where text must be supplied by

the designer.

**************************************************************************

NOTE: If the total carbon dioxide system

requirement, including reserves, does not exceed 908

kg 2000 pounds, design a high pressure carbon

dioxide system using Section 13961N CARBON DIOXIDE

FIRE EXTINGUISHING (HIGH PRESSURE). System

requirements must conform to Unified Facilities

Critria (UFC) 3-600-01 Design: Fire Protection

Engineering for Facilities.
