As you know, I am a huge fan of the FM Global Data Sheets and I still recommend them to all my clients. If your business is too cheap to buy RAGAGEPs, these Data Sheets are by far your next best options as they are FREE. And in some situations, I actually prefer the FM Data Sheets over the expensive RAGAGEP! Today, FM Global released their revised 7-78 Industrial Exhaust Systems. You have to register to gain access, but you will NOT be bombarded with unwanted e-mails afterward.
This document has been completely revised. Significant changes include the following:
- Added guidance for metallurgical smelters, refineries, and acid plants.
- Added new criteria related to fire protection placement, operation, and maintenance.
- Clarified exterior fire protection options.
If your facility has “exhaust systems” that control hazardous atmospheres, this FREE resource is a MUST READ/HAVE.
