The purpose of this procedure is to define the step by step method to implement the
correct practices for the precommissioning & commissioning of “Argonite System” fire
suppression system.

Through the the guidelines contained herein so as to ensure that the job execution
complies with the project requirements and serves the intended function to satisfactory
level.

Pre-commissioning Procedure for Argonite System


Ensure that the Argonite System installation is complete and mechanical completion is
approved. Ensure that the number of cylinders & pressure rating are as per approved
material submittal.

Ensure that all cylinder valves are sealed off.


Ensure that the fixation brackets are mounted as indicated in the approved shop
drawings.
Ensure that all cylinders have been labelled & have been filled in correctly.
Ensure that cylinders are securely fastened to solid & stable structure.
Ensure that the cylinders are in correct position & clamping bars are fastened.
Ensure that discharge hoses are fixed on cylinder valve & to check-valve on the
manifold.
Ensure that manifold is securely fastened.
Ensure that the pressure gauge/switch/solenoid valve unit(s) are installed
correctly & the pressure indicated on the gauge(s) is in accordance with the MAR.
(Note: The hose from solenoid valve should be fitted to the actuator port only after
ensuring that there is no leak in the hose).
Ensure that the actuators – manual & pneumatic are fitted correctly to the
cylinder valves.
Ensure that the actuators are interconnected by hi-flex hoses.
Ensure that the actuator line is provided with an end cap.
Ensure that the hose from solenoid release valve(s) has been fitted to the correct
port on the pneumatic actuator.
Ensure that the coil(s) of the solenoid valve(s) has been disconnected.
Check the position of restrictor (s) and direction of flow.
Ensure correct orifice dimension of the restrictor.
Ensure that the room is air tight & the room integrity test is complete in line with
the approved procedure.
