Replace Existing Wateflow Detectors with New
Fire sprinkler waterflow detectors appear to be inoperable. Section A 17.12.2 of NFPA 72 states that waterflow devices should be field adjusted so that an alarm is initiated no more than 90 seconds after a sustained flow of 10 gpm. It appears that sprinkler activation occurs at this facility with a sustained flow less than 10 gpm.
