Firewater system failure can cause major risk to life
Meeting fire protection valve applications
Dependable water sources for fire emergencies
All fire protection, sprinkler and deluge systems require dependable water sources. The performance, safety and reliability of high-quality valves prove critical to the smooth operation of these systems.
The failure of a firewater system can cause a significant health and safety risk.
Usability features to support fire protection systems
Features including tight shut-off capabilities, compact dimensions and simple quarter turn action result in the frequent use of Gate and Butterfly Valves in fire protection systems. With their ability to restrict flow to one direction and prevent reverse flow, Check Valves can also support fire protection systems.
