IPS CARBON STEEL PIPE- FIRE PROTECTION VALVES �O.00 <br /> FireLock° Che�k �(a�ves <br /> SERIES 7ll <br /> I <br /> I <br /> FLOW CHARACTERISTICS NOTE: Placement of check valves too close to sources of unstable flow will shorten the life of ' <br /> the valve and potentially may damage the system.To extend valve life,valves should be installed <br /> a reasonable distance downstream from pumps,elbows,expanders, reducers or other similar <br /> devices.Sound piping practices dictate a minimum of five(5)times the pipe diameter for general <br /> use. Distances between three(3)and five(5)diameters are allowable provided the flow velocity <br /> is less than eight(8)feet per second(2.4 mps). Distances less than three(3)diameters are not <br /> recommended and will violate the Victaulic product warranty <br /> The chart below expresses the flow of water at 65°F/18°C through a full open valve. <br /> e.a . _ -_ _ _ .- --;�- i;--�— -• ; -- ;_ -, - - ,-- --- -- -- . <br /> s.a �-...__ .�... �--'— - ,-, _ ...- v- --t - -j-; , -- -�-{- :- ;-,� - -� <br /> a.o � -_ --._!_ .{ _�.�' � � .i.. _ -'- =—, - ._j ; _ � . � ;.�� __..�. <br /> j. � ' � ; i� , r' ; 1 '! , i � ' _I <br /> i [.'
