Piping Practices
Due to the two phase flow of NOVEC™ 1230, certain
piping practices must be adhered to. Mainly that the flow
split must be on the horizontal plane. There are two types
of tee used in SAPPHIRE® systems, a through /side tee
and a bull tee. Both have limitations on the minimum and
maximum allowable flow splits which are detailed on
page 43.
It should also be noted that system designers shall
allow a minimum of 10 times the nominal pipe diameter
around tee splits before any change of direction.
System designers should aim to design as far as
possible balanced pipe networks, use minimum lengths
of pipe, use minimum numbers of elbows, maximize pipe
volume before the 1st tee and incorporate similar pipe run
lengths to nozzles.

Hand-over Procedures
The entire system shall be thoroughly inspected to make
sure that it is complete and that all tests required during
installation have been properly carried out. In addition, the
following items are particularly important.
1. A container should be refilled or replaced when it
shows a loss in agent quantity of more than 5% or a
loss in pressure (adjusted for temperature) of more
than 10%. (Operating pressure of unit at 25 bar at
21 °C, 360 psi at 70 °F). Refer to Appendix A for
pressures at other container temperatures.
2. Check container weight information label against
system requirement. If there is any doubt or if there
has been a loss of weight, then the container must be
weighed.
3. Make sure the system is armed and the actuating
systems are operational.
