Additional Information for Automatic Sprinkler Air Release Control
Automatic Sprinkler Air Release Control is a component of fire sprinkler systems that helps to remove air from the system and ensure proper water flow. It is classified under the supply class Firefighting Equipment in the supply group Firefighting, Rescue, and Safety Equipment; and Environmental Protection Equipment and Materials.
The Automatic Sprinkler Air Release Control is designed to automatically release air trapped in the sprinkler system piping. When a sprinkler system is filled with water, air can become trapped in the pipes, which can hinder the system's performance. The air release control device is installed at high points in the system where air tends to accumulate.
The device works by using a float mechanism that rises as air collects in the system. When the float reaches a certain level, it triggers a valve to open, allowing the trapped air to escape. This helps to maintain the efficiency and effectiveness of the sprinkler system by ensuring that water can flow freely through the pipes.
In summary, the Automatic Sprinkler Air Release Control is an important component of fire sprinkler systems that helps to remove trapped air and ensure proper water flow. It is classified under the supply class Firefighting Equipment in the supply group Firefighting, Rescue, and Safety Equipment; and Environmental Protection Equipment and Materials.
