ABSTRACT:
Test apparatus and method for determining whether an enclosure containing articles of value susceptible to damage by fire and also by water is able to pass a hold time requirement in the performance specifications of a fire extinguishing system installed in the enclosure. The fire extinguishing system acts by injecting and distributing a volatile extinguishing agent in an initially generally uniform manner throughout the enclosure, and requires for effective action that a specified minimum concentration of the agent be maintained in specified regions of the enclosure for a specified minimum hold time.
