Overseas Vendors & Suppliers: Can They Contribute to Your Products Liability Exposure Risk Control Bulletin
Our new Risk Control Bulletin covers the tough issue of controlling liability when a manufacturer or distributor must purchase raw materials, components or finished products from overseas suppliers. Common risk transfer techniques won't always work when suppliers are thousands of miles away in a foreign country. This bulletin gives practical advice to controlling liability and product quality from overseas suppliers. Click Here To View Bulletin

Antifreeze Solutions in Sprinkler Systems
The antifreeze agents, Propylene glycol and glycerin are Class IIIB (combustible) liquids in their pure state, but dilution with water limits their flammability. However when you consider the droplet size associated with the discharge from a sprinkler system, especially the smaller orifices usually associated with residential or light hazard type systems, there is a potential for ignition when antifreeze solutions are present in higher concentrations.
 
NFPA has issued Tentative Interim Amendments (TIA) for all sprinkler systems and the use of antifreeze. The full safety bulletin and links to the actual TIA's can be found here: www.nfpa.org/antifreeze.

High Volume Low Speed (HLVS) Fans Risk Control Bulletin
HVLS fans are very efficient at equalizing air temperatures throughout large open areas. They are so efficient that it was feared that the air movement, as well as the actual fan, may interfere with the proper operation of ceiling level fire sprinkler systems. CNA partnered with the Fire Protection Research Foundation to sponsor a series of full scale fire tests involving these fans. The results pointed towards the two recommendations outlined in the bulletin.

First, to limit the potential for interference for the fan to sprinkler discharge, center the fan between a grouping of 4 sprinklers.

Second to reduce the effects of large airflows on sprinkler activation, the fan control should be interlocked with the sprinkler system waterflow alarm to shut off upon any sprinkler activation. A group of fan manufacturers were part of this research project and are aware of this reformation and can help you accomplish it with their fans you have installed or are considering installing.
