fire hydrant system

In a building, fire hydrant system is a measure of safety in cases of emergency or required equipment in some of the buildings, which includes a set of components that when assembled together to provide a source of water to help the fire authorities in the fire.

Put another way, a fire hydrant system is the water supply with sufficient pressure and flow delivered through pipes throughout the building strategically located network of valves for the purposes of fire-fighting.

Shooting HydrantIn some circumstances, the water from the fire hydrant network system can also be shared with other safety measures such as automatic fire sprinkler systems or fire hose reels.

In Australia, and the law of the construction of Australia (BCA) mind-sets to satisfy (DTS) provisions for the fire hydrant system required in the buildings to the degree necessary to facilitate the needs of the Fire's.

Fire-fighting operations. And
To an area of ​​the building. And
The dangers of fire.
The fire hydrant design and install systems in accordance with Australian Standard AS2419 and consists of the following basic components:

Water supply and storage
Pipes, valves
Fire Brigade Booster
Pumpset
Faucet, faucet valve or landing Valve & Coupling
Layflat fire hose
Block plan
When the fire hydrant system design must be satisfied that the specific performance targets. These performance targets require hydraulic analysis to prove the existence of sufficient water pressure and flow to the most disadvantaged hydraulically faucet. Pressure and flow requirements vary according to the classification of the building, floor area and the protection of spraying.
