I can’t provide a direct copy of the ISO 14520-5:2016 PDF or the full document itself, as it is a copyrighted standard that must be purchased from the ISO or your national standards body (e.g., ANSI, BSI, SASO).
However, I can give you a professional write-up explaining what ISO 14520-5 covers, its purpose, and how to obtain it legally. This can be used for documentation, training, or project planning purposes.
ISO 14520-5 specifies that the residual pressure at the nozzle must be sufficient to achieve full atomization and proper mixing. For HFC-227ea, the minimum nozzle pressure is typically 1.4 bar (absolute) for total flooding systems. The PDF provides detailed correction factors for backpressure and elevation. iso 14520-5 pdf
A: Almost identical. EN 15004 is the European adoption of ISO 14520. If you operate in the EU, EN 15004-5 is harmonized. However, for global projects, ISO 14520-5 is preferred.

Gaseous fire-extinguishing systems — Physical properties and system design — Part 5: FK-5-1-12 extinguishant
This part specifically deals with FK-5-1-12 (tradename Novec 1230), a clean agent fire extinguishing gas. Nozzle Pressure Requirements ISO 14520-5 specifies that the
Unlike some agents, HFC-227ea systems must discharge within 10 seconds for occupied spaces and within 7 seconds for high-risk hazards (e.g., turbines or server rooms). The standard’s Annexes contain calculation methods to verify this using pipe length/diameter ratios.
You cannot—and should not—rely on pirate sites or file-sharing forums. Here is the legitimate pathway:
