Software or Calculators for CMDA Sprinklers?

2/4/2021

I was wondering if maybe there are some calculators or wizards that guide a selection of CMDA sprinklers for storage applications.

We work with multiple standards (Vds, EN, NFPA) and sometimes it takes a long time to find the right point on the curve out of NFPA 13. It would be great to have a tool to verify that density and multipliers were all chosen properly. Thanks in advance.

Frank,
I'm not sure. I would rechout to Johnson Controls to find out. We use SprinkCAD and CodeConnect is part of the licensing package.
