Having an interesting discussion with a senior field man.

He is concerned that some of the compressors pump to 125 +/-, and was asking 
about an AMD.

I have searched, and also from a hands-on standpoint, do not believe one is 
required.

It certainly is if we introduce a dry valve or deluge into the standpipe 
system, but then it gets a different name.

NFPA 72 only mentions a 10 psi differential for supervisory circuits with air.

Is an AMD required on this type standpipe?
