Flange
A flange is an external or internal ridge, or rim (lip), as
the flange connected on the end of a pipe, steam
cylinder, etc.
•NOZZLES a.k.a Sprinkler Head
VALVES AND ACCESORIES
BUTTERFLY VALVE
- A valve consisting of a disk rotating on an axis across the
diameter of a pipe to regulate the flow, as in the throttles of many
engines.
PRESSURE SWITCH
- A pressure switch for sensing fluid pressure contains a capsule,
bellows, Bourdon tube, diaphragm or piston element that deforms
or displaces proportionally to the applied pressure
FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR
In a piping system, a connector, usually fabricated of a combinat
ion of metallic mesh and a non metallic.
WATERFLOW SWITCH
- Water flow detectors provide a mechanical time delay that is
adjusted vadjustment wheel. This retard mechanism is field
replaceable, as is the terminal ia an block.
SIGHT GLASS
A sight glass or water gauge is a transparent tube through which
the operator of a tank or boiler can observe the level of liquid
contained within.
FOOT VALVE
Protect your pump and down-line components from damage by
installing a Pump Foot Valve.
PRESURE GAUGE
A manometer is an instrument that uses a column of liquid to
measure pressure, although the term is currently often used to
mean any pressure measuring instrument.
SIAMESE ( Fire Department Connection )
A Siamese connection or splitter in fire protection engineering
is a pipe fitting that allows two or more fire hoses to be
connected to a single standpipe riser at the same general
location.
CISTERN TANK
an artificial reservoir for storing liquids; especially an
underground tank for storing rainwater. Types: cesspit,
cesspool, sink, sump. a covered cistern; waste water and
sewage flow into it. rain barrel. a barrel used as a cistern to
hold rainwater.
• PUMPS AND CONTROLS
JOCKEY PUMP
is a small pump connected to a fire sprinkler system and is
intended to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping
system to an artificially high level so that the operation of a
single fire sprinkler will cause a pressure drop which will be
sensed by the fire pump automatic controller, causing the fire
pump to start.
ELECTRICAL CONTROL PANEL
- Is a flat, often vertical, area where control or monitoring
instruments are displayed. Which contain electrical
components to control the motors and equipment
MAGNETIC CONTACTOR
- is an electrically controlled switch used for switching an
electrical power circuit, similar to a relay except with
higher current ratings.
HEAT DETECTOR
A 'heat detector is a fire alarm device designed to respond when
the converted thermal energy of a fire increases the temperature
of a heat sensitive element.
SMOKE DETECTOR
A smoke detector is a device that senses smoke, typically as an
indicator of fire. A disk-shaped plastic enclosure about 150
millimetres (6 in) in diameter and 25 millimetres (1 in) thick,
MANUAL PULL STATION
The Manual Pull Station is a wall-mounted initiating device
that is used in a Fire Alarm system.
