Frequently Asked Questions
How does the ZSFZ wet alarm valve sound the alarm?
When sprinkler flow opens the clapper, the water motor alarm gong is driven continuously, the retard chamber filters out transient surges to prevent false alarms, and the pressure switch closes an electrical contact to the fire alarm control panel.
Does the ZSFZ need electrical power to operate?
No. The valve itself is fully hydraulic; only the pressure switch contact provides the alarm signal to the building fire alarm panel.
What sizes are available for the ZSFZ?
DN100, DN150 and DN200 at 1.6 MPa nominal pressure, manufactured to GB 5135.2 with cast iron or ductile iron bodies and EPDM/NBR clapper and seat seals.
Can the ZSFZ be maintained without draining the system?
Yes — it is designed for on-line maintenance and periodic testing, which is critical for fire systems that must remain protected around the clock.
