Specifications include, but are not limited to: 2.4.1. Proposer shall test water flow alarm devices to insure they provide an audible or visual signal for flow switches. Additionally, Proposer shall insure that proper signage of the water flow alarm devices exist. Proposer shall test water flow alarm on a dry pipe, preaction or deluge system accomplished by using a bypass connection. Proposer shall coordinate this test with the Fire Alarm Contractor. 2.4.2. Gauges will be replaced or tested by comparison with a calibrated gauge every five years. Gauges not accurate to within 3% of the full scale shall be recalibrated or replaced. 2.4.3. Proposer shall test the main drain at each water-based fire protection system riser. 2.4.4. Proposer shall operate the control valve(s) through its full range and return the control valve to its normal position. Proposer shall also open post indicator valves to the point where spring or torsion is felt in the rod, indicating that the rod has not become detached from the valve. In order to prevent jamming in the indicator valve, Proposer shall back one-quarter (1/4) turn from the fully opened position, and outside screw and yolk valves. 2.4.5. Proposer shall test valve supervisory switches. A signal shall indicate movement from a valve’s normal position during either the first two (2) revolutions of a hand wheel or when the stem of the valve has moved one-fifth (1/5) of the distance from its normal position. 2.4.6. Proposer shall test the priming water level on the preaction and deluge systems. Additionally, (where deemed appropriate by the University Fire Marshal), a trip test of the preaction and deluge system shall be conducted at full flow level. The heat actuating devices shall also be tested to verify proper operation. 2.4.7. Proposer shall test the water flow of the main drain at the sprinkler riser, noting static and residual pressures. 2.4.8. Proposer shall conduct a trip test on the dry systems and verify that the air compressor will refill the system within thirty (30) minutes for dry systems. Every third year, a full flow trip test on dry systems shall be conducted. 2.4.9. Proposer shall verify that the sectional pressure regulating valves flow at the specific designated pressure and g.p.m. for the particular system in question.
