The glovebox heat detection and fire alarm system in the Material and Fuels Complex (MFC) Analytical Laboratory's (building MFC-752) Casting Lab needs to be replaced to meet requirements of the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) "National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code," NFPA-72. The proposed action would replace two glovebox heat detectors and add an additional heat detector to the Casting Lab glovebox. In addition, a new detector would be added to a test box on the wall used to test the fire alarm system. The old module would be removed and replaced with an FMM-1 module alarm. The system would be tested as required to meet NFPA-72.
