Abstract
In a sprinkler system for warehouse freezers or other cold environments (11), a sprinkler system piping (17) is connected to a water supply (23) through a check valve (25) and extends through a freez-ing cold environment to sprinkler heads (13) positioned to discharge extinguishant.
The sprinkler system piping (17) within the cold environment is filled with a so-lution of pottasium lactate. When a fire occurs casing one or more of the sprinkler heads to be activated, the sprinkler heads will discharge the potassium lactate onto the fire. This action will reduce the pres-sure in the sprinkler system piping below that of the water supply so that water flows from the water supply through the sprin-kler system piping through the activated sprinkler heads (13) to be discharged upon the fire.

Description
WET SPRINKLER SYSTEM FOR COLD ENVIRONMENTS
This invention relates to sprinkler systems and, more particularly, to a fire extinguishant sprinkler system designed to operate in freezers and other cold environments.
Background of the Invention Sprinkler systems for extinguishing fires in large storage freezers and in other cold environments at freezing temperatures wherein the piping leading to the sprinkler heads extend through the freezing environment have to be designed in a way to prevent extinguishant in the piping from freezing. One way to accomplish this objective is to use a dry pipe system wherein the piping in the freezing environment leading from a water supply under pressure is maintained dry and filled with air or other gas. When a sprinkler head is activated in response to a fire beneath the sprinkler head, water must travel from the source of supply through the piping to sprinkler head before the water is sprayed onto the fire. As a result, an unacceptably long delay between the time the sprinkler head is activated and the time that the sprinkler head begins to discharge water occurs and the desired early suppression fast response for large storage systems is not achieved. In some wet pipe systems for freezing environments, propylene glycol is used to fill the piping leading to the sprinkler heads, but when propylene glycol is used in concentrations sufficient to prevent freezing, the solution is flammable and, therefore, its effectiveness in a sprinkler system is substantially compromised. A calcium chloride solution would prevent freezing, but it is corrosive and thus would increase the property damage when the sprinkler system is activated. Other solutions that might be used in a wet pipe sprinkler system are glycerine, methanol, potassium acetate and urea. However, each of these solutions raise concern from a combustibility, corrosivity and/or environmental safety standpoint.
Accordingly, there is a need for an effective early suppression, quick response, sprinkler system for freezers and other cold environments in which the piping leading the sprinkler heads ~
passes through low temperature environments substantially below the freezing point of water.
Summary of the Invention In accordance with the present invention, a sprinkler system for use in freezers and other cold environments is provided wherein the piping passing through the low temperature environment is filled with a selected solution of potassium lactate.
The piping is connected to a conventional water supply under pressure through a check valve. The pressure of the potassium lactate solution in the piping is maintained above the water pressure in the source of water supply so the check valve remains closed when no sprinklers have been activated. The concentration of the potassium lactate in the aqueous solution is selected to be high enough to prevent the solution from freezing in the sprinkler system piping and yet low enough to prevent the viscosity of the solution from interfering with the flow rate in standard sprinkler system piping. For any practical application, the concentration of potassium lactate should be between 30% and 60% by weight. For freezer and cold environments at I0 F., a potassium lactate -, J
concentration of 30% by weight can be used. For most applications, the concentration of the potassium lactate should be between 40 and 50 percent by weight. For freezers and cold environments at temperatures between 16 F and 0 F., a 40%
solution by weight of potassium lactate is used. For sharp freezers wherein the temperature is maintained between 0 and -20 F., a 47% solution by weight of potassium lactate is preferably used. In the system, a tank containing the potassium lactate solution is connected to the piping and a jockey pump is provided to pump an additional volume of potassium lactate into the piping to provide a make up for potassium lactate lost from the piping due to leakage and to maintain the pressure in the piping above that of the source of water supply.
When the sprinkler head is actuated, the potassium lactate in the piping leading to the sprinkler head will be sprayed from the sprinkler head reducing the pressure in the piping below the pressure in the water supply and the check valve between the water supply and the sprinkler system piping will open. Water will then flow from the water supply through the piping to the actuated sprinkler head.
WO 00/66228 CA 02371775 2001-10-30 PCTfUS00/11494 Potassium lactate in the right concentration is highly suitable to be used in the sprinkler system piping because it is not flammable, is not corrosive, is nontoxic and is environmentallv safe. In fact, potassium lactate is edible and is frequently used as a food additive. It is also effective as a fire extinguishant.
Brief Description of the Drawing The single figure of the drawings schematically illustrates the sprinkler system in a warehouse type freezer.
Description of the Preferred Embodiment As shown in Fig. 1, a warehouse-type freezer enclosure 11 (shown with the roof removed) is provided with an overhead sprinkler system comprising sprinkler heads 13 which are connected to and mounted on branch lines 15, three inches in diameter, extending between cross mains 17, six inches in diameter. The sprinkler heads 13 are distributed uniformly over the ceiling of the freezer enclosure 11. A refrigeration unit 19 will maintain the temperature within the enclosure 11 at a freezing temperature. In a conventional freezer, the refrigeration unit will maintain a temperature between 0 and 16 and in a sharp freezer, will maintain the temperature between -20 and 0 F. One of the cross mains 17 is connected to an 8 inch riser which connects the piping within the freezer to a pressurized water supply 23 through a check valve 25 and a gate valve 27. The sprinkler system piping comprising the cross mains 17 and the branch lines 15 are filled with a solution of potassium lactate and water maintained at a pressure above the pressure of the pressurized water supply 23. In operation, the gate valve 27 will be open and the check valve 25 will be maintained closed by the pressure downstream from the check valve 25 being greater than the pressure provided by the water supply 23 upstream from the check valve 25.
When a fire occurs within the enclosure 17, one or more of the sprinkler heads over the fire will be activated and begin to discharge the potassium lactate solution onto the fire. The potassium lactate within the piping near the actuated sprinkler heads will be quickly exhausted and the flow through the piping to the activated sprinkler heads will reduce the pressure downstream from the check valve 25 causing it to open allowing water to flow from the pressurized water supply 23 through the riser 21 and the piping 15 and 17 to the activated sprinkler heads whereby water will be discharged through the activated sprinkler heads onto the fire. Because the water will be flowing through the piping system at a relevantly high rate, the water will not freeze within the piping 15 and 17 even though the temperature within the enclosure 11 remains at a freezing temperature.
To provide makeup for leakage of potassium lactate from the piping 15 and 17, a tank 29 containing the potassium lactate solution is provided. Potassium lactate is supplied from the tank 29 to the riser 21 by means of a jockey pump 35 which provides makeup potassium lactate to the piping 15 and 17 through a gate valve 37, a check valve 39 and the riser 21. In operation, the gate valve 37 will be open and the check valve 39 will be maintained closed by back pressure from the sprinkler piping. When leakage of potassium lactate occurs from the sprinkler system, the leaked potassium lactate is replaced by potassium lactate from the tank 29 by the jockey pump to maintain the pressure in the pipes 15 and 17 above the pressure of the water pressure supply 23. The jockey pump lacks capacity to maintain the pressure in the sprinkler system piping above the pressure of the water supply when a sprinkler head is activated.
As the concentration of potassium lactate increases, the viscosity of the solution increases causing the flow rate in the sprinkler system piping to decrease. With a solution with a concentration of potassium lactate of 40% by weight, the size of the sprinkler piping must be increased by about 10% to achieve the same flow rate as water. For a solution of potassium lactate solution with a concentration of 47% by weight, the size of the piping must be increased by about 20% to achieve the same flow rate as water. For solution of potassium lactate with a concentration of 60% by weight, the size of the piping must be increased by about 50% to achieve the same flow rate as water. As the size of the piping is increased, the cost of the sprinkler system increases. Accordingly, the concentration of the potassium lactate should be selected to be great enough to prevent freezing in the environment in which the sprinkler svstem is to be used and then the piping size should be selected to achieve the desired flow rate to activated sprinklers so as to achieve the desired early suppression fast response when a fire occurs.
In most applications in which the temperature of the freezer or other cold environment is above -20 F., the concentration of the potassium lactate by weight should be 40 to 50%.
In a preferred embodiment for freezers maintaining a temperature between 0 and 16 F., the preferred concentration of potassium lactate is 40% by weight in the potassium lactate solution. For sharp freezers, the temperature is maintained between 0 and -20 F., the preferred concentration of potassium lactate in the solution is 47% by weight. For very cold environments or freezers in which temperatures of -60 F. occur, the concentrations should be 60% by weight. If the sprinkler piping is subjected to temperatures of only 10 F. or higher, the concentrations of potassium lactate should be 30% by weight.
The above described specific embodiment of the invention is implemented in a freezer warehouse facility. The invention can also be used in other cold environments, such as in an outdoor loading dock which is exposed to cold environmental temperatures during winter, or anywhere in which the sprinkler piping is subjected to sufficiently cold temperatures to cause destructive freezing of stationarv water in the sprinkler piping.
The above description is of preferred embodiments of the invention and modification may be made thereto without departing c~
from the spirit and scope of the invention which is defined in the appended claims.
