7. Dry-Type Sprinkler Systems—Have constrictor demonstrate that both high and ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> low air pressure are supervised as required.The off-normal signal shall be initiated <br /> when the pressure increases or decreases by 10 psi. <br /> 8. Supervised Valves-Close all electrically supervised sprinkler control valves to ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> verify supervisory alarm at the FACP within 2 turns of control wheel or, for post <br /> indicator valve within 1/5 of valve control mechanism's travel distance. Then <br /> reopen to verify"restore" signal. <br /> 9. Main Drain-Open the main drain valve, it should be able to be fully opened ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> without causing water damage. When the pressure stabilizes, note whether the <br /> pressure dropped and stayed below the residual pressure on the calc plate. If it <br /> does,there is a problem with the system. <br /> 10. Calc Plates- Hydraulic Design Information Sign (Calc Plates) shall be proved by the ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> installing contractor.The sign shall be weatherproof metal or rigid plastic secured <br /> with corrosion-resistant wire, chain, or other approved means. Such signs shall be <br /> placed at the alarm valve, dry pipe valve, pre-action valve, or deluge valve <br /> supplying the corresponding hydraulically designed area. <br /> The sign shall include the following information: <br /> • Location of the design area or areas <br /> • Discharge densities over the design area or areas <br /> • Required flow and residual pressure demand at the base of the riser <br /> • Occupancy classification or commodity classification and maximum <br /> permitted storage height and configuration <br /> • Hose stream allowance included in addition to the sprinkler demand <br /> • The name of the installing contractor <br /> 11. Door Signs- Doors leading into rooms that contain controls for fire sprinklers shall ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> be identified with an approved sign. Approved signs shall identify fire protection <br /> equipment and be durable martials, red and white in color, permanently installed, <br /> and readily visible. <br /> 12. Valve Signs-All control, drain, and test connection valves shall be provided with a ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> weatherproof metal or rigid plastic identification signs, secured with corrosion- <br /> resistant wire, chain, or other approved means.The sign shall identify the portion <br /> of the building served and systems with more than one control valve that must be <br /> closed to work on a system or space shall have a sign referring to existence and <br /> location of other valves. <br /> 13. Caution Sign -A caution signs shall be provided with the following wording: ❑ ❑ ❑ <br /> This valve controls fire protection equipment. Do not close until after fire has been <br /> extinguished. Use auxiliary valves when necessary to shut off supply to auxiliary <br /> equipment. CAUTION: Automatic alarm can be sounded if this valve is closed. <br /> Fire Marshal's Office 425.257.8100 1 everettwa.gov/fire I INFORMATION HANDOUT C-6 4.13.2020 I Page 9 <br />
