ABSTRACT:
The invention herein described relates to devices used to test the integrity of fire sprinkler systems. The present device incorporates a control panel which allows a single operator to electrically activate a test valve within a specific sprinkler network. The interval between the initiation of water flow and the resulting alarm signal is timed by the operator using the control panel. The operator can test any of the building's sprinkler networks simply by adjusting a rotary switch located on the control panel. In this manner, the time and expense associated with sprinkler testing may be greatly reduced by having a single operator perform dependable tests of the entire automatic sprinkler system from one location.
