Industrial Deluge System Acceptance Requirements

If you enjoyed this post, we encourage you to share!
I am dealing with a system that is used to protect storage tanks at one of our industrial facilities, this system is an outdoor deluge employing a pilot air detecting line with glass bulb sprinkler heads, adjacent to the open sprinkler water line.

My understanding is that the water line is required to meet the testing requirements of NFPA 13, 2013 edition – 25.2.1.1 [ 29.2.1.1 in the 2022 edition], and that the pilot line only is required to be tested pneumatically 40psi for 24hrs per clause 25.2.2.1 [29.2.2.1 in the 2022 edition]

My question is: Are there acceptance testing requirements for the pilot line?
