Comments:

Annual NFPA 25 Deluge Fire Sprinkler System Inspection

I. Inspection Tasks:

Y N/A N

Fire sprinkler system appears to be in service at time of inspection Date of last 5 year inspection Date of last Obstruction Inspection System Riser:

This system is clearly marked indicating the area served Records of tripping time maintained for previous full flow trip tests Tag or card showing trip test date and name of person and organization conducting test attached to deluge pipe valve

Separate records of initial air and water pressure, tripping air pressure, and deluge pipe valve operating conditions maintained on premises for comparison

Hydraulic information sign provided at riser and is legible Deluge system trim valves are in appropriate open or closed position System valves and equipment free of physical damage System valves, equipment, and drains not leaking Alarm device free from physical damage Spare sprinklers are of proper number (at least 6), type and temperature rating Spare sprinklers stored where temperature maximum is 100°F Wrench available for each type of sprinkler installed in this system The riser room or valve location is heated to at least 40°F Valves:

Control valve(s) completely open Control valves accessible Control valves properly locked or supervised Control valve identification signs in place Control valves are leak-free Gauges:

Gauges appear to be in good condition Supply pressure gauge psi System pressure gauge psi Quick opening device gauge (if applicable) psi Air compressor gauge (if applicable) psi Gauge readings appear normal General System Observations (All observations taken from the floor. NFPA 25 does not require the inspector to enter any concealed spaces or leave the floor for these activities.)

Sprinklers:

Sprinklers appear free of leakage Sprinklers appear free of corrosion Sprinklers appear free of foreign materials Sprinklers appear free of paint Sprinklers appear free of physical damage Sprinklers appear properly oriented Sprinkler spray patterns appear free of obstructions Glass bulbs in applicable fire sprinklers appear full of liquid

I. Inspection Tasks (cont.):

Y N/A N

Piping & Fittings: (visible from the floor only) Deluge system is free of air pressure leaks greater than 10psi/week Piping appears free of mechanical damage Piping appears free of leakage Piping appears free of corrosion Piping appears properly aligned Piping free of external loading (not supporting other equipment) Hangers: (visible from the floor only) Hangers and seismic bracing appear to be in good condition (paint or coatings in place/undamaged, no rust or corrosion)

Hangers and seismic bracing appear securely attached to structural members and piping

Hangers and seismic bracing appear undamaged and not missing

II. Maintenance & Testing:

General: Y N/A N

All portions of this system appear to be in service prior to maintenance and testing Alarm monitoring service and all pertinent parties notified before performing maintenance or testing

Control Valves:

Control valves (including backflow and PIVs) operated through full range and returned to normal position

Operating stems of OS&Y valves lubricated PIVs opened until spring or torsion felt in rod PIVs and OS&Ys backed 1/4 turn from full open Supervisory switches initiated distinct signal during first two hand wheel revolutions or before valve stem moved one-fifth from normal position

Signal restored only when control valve returned to normal position Deluge Valve and System Components:

Deluge pipe valve interior thoroughly cleaned and inspected Grease or other sealing materials were not applied or present on the seating surfaces of Deluge pipe valve

Priming water level checked Quick opening device(s) tested Low pressure alarm tested Automatic air pressure maintenance devices tested in accordance with mfg. inst.

Air Compressor tank drained Deluge pipe system low points drained Gauges:

System gauges test/replacement date:

System gauges tested by comparison with calibrated gauge System gauges accurate within 3% of full scale System gauges recalibrated or replaced as necessary

Yes - Replaced

Yes - Recalibrated

Foam Tests:

Have samples of the foam-water concentrate been taken during full flow testing and checked to verify concentration is within % of acceptance test results?

Do the foam-water spray nozzles in place appear to be pointed in the direction per system design and free from external loading and corrosion at the time of inspection?

Were caps or plugs that are required in place at time of inspection?

Have all known system low points and drum drips been drained and inspected?

If applicable, was the foam concentrate pump operated and did the foam concentrate appear to be circulated back to tank?

Have the foam liquid tank pickup pipes been inspected for corrosion, separation and plugging?

Verify that the ball drip valves (automatic drain), if accessible, are free and opened, and the foam concentrate storage tank(s) is free of external corrosion.

All pressure shall be removed before inspection to prevent injury Does the monitor nozzle(s) appear to be free of any leaking, corrosion, or physical damage at the time of inspection?

Does monitor nozzle(s) oscillate and move throughout its preset full range at the time of inspection?
