A fire valve is a valve used to control and regulate the flow of water in a fire protection system. It is usually installed on the pipes of the fire water system to quickly cut off or open the water flow in the event of a fire for fire extinguishing or water supply.
Fire valves are generally divided into two types: manual fire valves and automatic fire valves.
Manual fire valves require manual operation and are usually manually opened or closed by firefighters in the event of a fire to control the flow direction and flow of water.
Automatic fire valves automatically open or close based on signals from the fire detection system without manual intervention. When the fire detector detects a fire, the automatic fire valve will automatically open and introduce water into the fire protection system to extinguish the fire.
A fire extinguishing valve is a special type of fire valve used to control the flow of fire extinguishing agents in a fire extinguishing system. Fire extinguishing valves are usually used in gas fire extinguishing systems or chemical fire extinguishing systems to achieve fire extinguishing effects by controlling the flow of fire extinguishing agents.
In short, fire valves and fire extinguishing valves are very important components of the fire protection system. They can control and regulate the flow of water or fire extinguishing agents to ensure the fire extinguishing effect and water supply capacity when a fire occurs.
