Install a fire suppression device (sprinkler / cease fire)

DANGER:
Always disconnect the pod from the power outlet before you begin disassembly, maintenance, moving, or any other procedure.

When installing a sprinkler or a stand-alone fire suppression device (e.g., a cease fire), follow this installation procedure before moving on to section 4.1 or 4.2.




  4. Locate the mark on the inner side of the ceiling interior panel. Drill a pilot hole through the panel. Flip the panel over.
  5. With the fabric side of the panel facing upwards, locate the pilot hole and insert the pilot bit of the hole saw into the hole. Trace a larger circle with a pencil using the hole saw as a guide. Use a utility knife to cut along the marked circle.
    Note:
    You must cut the fabric using a utility knife. Using a hole saw on the fabric could damage the entire panel. Cut the fabric with a utility knife and remove the fabric before moving to the next step.
    Note:
    Cut a hole to the ceiling interior panel according to the size of the sprinkler head.
  6. Finish the cut through the PET felt backing using the hole saw.
  7. Punch out the precut flap in the roof. Use a soft mallet or the handle end of a screwdriver.




If installing a sprinkler, see Section 4.1 "Install the sprinkler (hard pipe or flexible pipe)".

If installing a stand-alone fire suppression device (e.g., a cease fire), see Section 4.2 "Install the cease fire".
