Essential Components Requiring Replacement in Commercial Sprinkler Systems

Sprinkler Heads

Why:

Sprinkler heads can deteriorate due to corrosion, physical damage, or blockages, impacting their ability to distribute water effectively during a fire.

Replacement Frequency:

We recommend annual inspections and replacement every 10-15 years to maintain optimal performance and reliability.

Piping and Fittings

Why:

Corrosion and wear can lead to leaks or reduced water flow in pipes and fittings, necessitating regular inspections and replacements to ensure system integrity.

Replacement Frequency:

Inspect pipes and fittings regularly and replace every 15-25 years to prevent failures and maintain efficient water distribution.

Valves

Why:

Valves control water flow and must operate flawlessly during emergencies. Regular inspections and replacements are crucial to prevent malfunctions.

Replacement Frequency:

Inspect valves annually and replace every 10-15 years to ensure reliability and compliance with safety standards.

Pressure Gauges

Why:

Accurate pressure readings are vital for proper water distribution during fire emergencies. Regular inspection and recalibration or replacement are necessary to maintain reliability.

Replacement Frequency:

Inspect pressure gauges annually and replace or recalibrate every 5-7 years to ensure accuracy and performance.

Backflow Preventers

Why:

Backflow preventers protect water supplies from contamination and must function correctly to comply with health and plumbing codes.

Replacement Frequency:

Test annually and replace or rebuild every 5-7 years to maintain effectiveness and regulatory compliance.

Hand wheels:

Hand jacks or manual operators are used to manually change a control valve position, regardless of the controller input. Some hand wheels can also act as adjustable travel stops, preventing the valve from fully opening or closing. Understanding how the hand wheel works is crucial. Always return it to the proper position for automated control.

The side-mounted hand wheel pushes against the actuator spring to move the valve in one direction. The actuator spring moves the valve in the other direction. You can use all side-mounted hand wheels to stroke the valve in either direction at any point. Leaving the hand wheel in any position other than neutral creates an adjustable stop, preventing the valve from fully opening or closing.

With the hand wheel in the neutral position, you can achieve automatic control of the valve’s full range of travel. Ensure you return the hand wheel to neutral for full automatic operation across the entire travel range. Automatic full-range travel is only possible when the hand wheel is in the neutral position.
