Hi all...

I just wanted to post this website that I found.  I thought it was a great review for the Fire Safety portion of this MEP test.  Hope you find it useful.

From the link above,

S17.  In an automatic sprinkler system in which one of the sprinkler heads has exceeded its rating and has begun to spray water, which of the following will have no effect on the sprinkler?
 


A. The temperature of the sprinkler head goes below its rated temperature.
B. The lower check valve opens.
C. The roof tank runs dry.
D. The upper check valve closes.

 

In automatic sprinkler system, Check valves are not automatic?

Does anyone know what is lower check valve and upper check valve?

No offense please .  I went through all the questions. I think that the test is helpful to citizens but not ARE candidates.

check valves or valves can be manual, or automatic. Thus, the ans. should be A. Because only sprinker heads that go above the rated temperature be activated. And so, A: sprinkler head that doesn't go off is out of the ball park in a fire.
