the private fire service main to perform its intended function.
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
Automatic Drain Valve (Automatic Drip or Ball Drip) - correct answer✔✔A
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
device intended to remove water using gravity from piping or valve
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
cavities, which is required to be empty when the system is not
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
discharging.
Corrosion-Resistant Piping - correct answer✔✔Piping that has the property !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
of being able to withstand deterioration of its surface or its properties
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
when exposed to its environment.
!| !| !| !|
Corrosion-Retarding Material - correct answer✔✔A lining or coating !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
material that when applied to piping or appurtenances has the property of
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
, reducing or slowing the deterioration of the objects surface or properties
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
when exposed to it environment.
!| !| !| !|
Fire Department Connection - correct answer✔✔A connection through
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
which the fire department can pump supplemental water into the sprinkler
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
system, standpipe, or other system, furnishing water for fire
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
extinguishment to supplement existing water supplies. !| !| !| !| !|
Fire Pump - correct answer✔✔A pump that is a provider of liquid flow and
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
pressure dedicated to fire protection. A fire pump is a part of a fire
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
standpipe system's water supply and can be powered by electric, diesel
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
or steam. The pump intake is either connected to the public underground
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
water supply piping or a static water source (e.g., tank, reservoir, lake).
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
The pump provides water flow at higher pressure and volume to the
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
standpipe system risers and hose standpipes. !| !| !| !| !|
Hose House - correct answer✔✔An enclosure located over or adjacent to
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
a hydrant or other water supply designed to contain the necessary hose
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
nozzles, hose wrenches, gaskets, and spanners to be used in fire fighting
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
in conjunction with and to provide aid to the local fire department.
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
Hydrant Butt - correct answer✔✔The hose connection outlet of a hydrant
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
Hydraulically Calculated Water Demand Flow Rate - correct answer✔✔The
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
waterflow rate for a system or hose stream that has been calculated
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
using accepted engineering practices.
!| !| !|
Residual Pressure - correct answer✔✔The pressure that exists in the
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
distribution system, measured at the residual hydrant at the time the
!| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !| !|
flow readings are taken at the flow hydrants.
