14. Why Inspect, Test and Maintain Life- Safety Systems? • Life-safety systems – You can’t always tell if they are fully operational just by looking at them – passive systems • As with any electronic or mechanical components they can degrade over time • Dirt, dust and other contaminants can cause problems with smoke detectors • Remodeling, vandalism and improper maintenance can damage fire protection equipment

15. Honest … We just tested it last month …

Inputs Initiating Devices Each input device must be activated to ensure it causes the correct output Smoke Detector Manual Station Relay Waterflow Valve Supervisory

22. How Are Fire Alarm Systems Tested? • Qualified personnel • Periodic inspections – Daily, Monthly • Periodic inspections – Yearly - Heat Detectors • Periodic inspections – Yearly - Smoke Detectors • Periodic inspections – Yearly - Control Panels

23. Smoke Detector Testing

24. Testing with magnets or “push-to-test” buttons do not ensure smoke entry into the sensing chamber.

25. Smoke Detector Cleaning andSensitivity Testing • “The detector sensitivity shall not be measured using any device that administers an unmeasured concentration of smoke or other aerosol into the detector” NFPA 72 2002 • During the inspection, fire alarm system smoke detectors should be removed from their base and cleaned as defined by current service provider policy. The smoke detectors should be tested for sensitivity in a controlled sensitivity tester. • No Climb model 800 Trutest • Gemini Scientific Corporation model 501B Smoke Detector Sensitivity Tester • Uses refined, pharmaceutical grade, mineral oil and nebulizer

26. The Common Heat Detector Testing Tool Problem: • Butane ignites at approximately 1700 - 1800 degrees Fahrenheit !

27. Calibrated Heat Detector Testing

28. Central Station Monitoring • Central Station will monitor facility for fire, critical conditions, elevators, and other systems via UL/FM-Listed central station monitoring facility … 24 hours a day, 365 days a year … • Ensures reliable, professional dispatching of fire authorities, owner reps, and service provider in the event of an emergency

29. Sprinkler Systems

30. Owner Responsibility • The property owner is fully responsible for the inspection, testing and maintenance of the building sprinkler system • Notify the AHJ and Monitoring agency before testing or shutting the system down for maintenance or repairs • Permit only qualified individuals to work on the system • Promptly remedy any deficiencies discovered • Assure the hazards in the building do not change without an accompanying evaluation of the ability of the sprinkler system to protect the new hazard • Verify the restoration of all sprinkler systems following any impairment • The NFPA has no record of a multiple death fire (3 or more fatalities) in a completely sprinklered building where the system was fully operational.

31. 5 Year Obstruction Testing

32. Corrosion is a naturally occurring destructive process Corrosion develops in systems which have metal, untreated water and air/oxygen in repeated and prolonged contact with each other. Both wet & dry fire sprinkler systems are continually subject to these conditions. The National Fire Protection Association requires: An investigation of piping and branch line conditions every 5 years. Also requires evaluating any deposits found inside the piping for indications of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) NFPA 25 – Obstruction Investigation

33. Allows for quick and inexpensive assessment of the internal corrosion activity in a facility’s fire sprinkler system. Identifies any build-up of corrosion products such as tubercles, mounds, particulates, solids, etc. found in a fire sprinkler systems. Tests for specific bacteria types commonly associated with microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Results available 10 days after receipt of the sample by the laboratory. Includes explanation and general recommendations. MIC Water Test Sampling and Deposit Test SimplexGrinnell’s FPS MIC Water Test Sampling and Deposit Analysis Test

34. Fire Pumps

35. Fire Pump • Inspection • Performance Testing • Service • Design • Installation Designed to increase the water pressure in the sprinkler system.

36. Yard Hydrants • Dry barrel (semiannual inspection) • Wet barrel (annual inspection)

37. Water Supply Tanks • Gravity tank • Pressure tank

38. Backflow Prevention Assemblies • Shall be tested annually at the designed flow rate of the fire protection system, including hose stream demands, if appropriate, and the friction loss across the device shall be measured • Per NFPA 25 • Certified Technician

39. Fire Extinguishers • Inspection • Testing • Service • Installation • Training Used as the first line of defense to put out small fires or contain one until the fire department arrives.

40. Fire Extinguisher Training OSHA Requirement (Annually) “Where the employer has provided portable fire extinguishers for the employees’ use… the employer shall also provide an educational program to familiarize employees with the general principles of the fire extinguisher use…”

41. Emergency Lighting Purpose: To provide 90 minutes of illumination in public access and means of egress when power failures occur. As a result, emergency lighting is considered life safety – proper operation is crucial during an emergency. • UL and NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Assn.) Manufacturing and Testing Standards • NEC Electrical Installation Standards • NFPA 101 Testing and Maintenance Requirements • Local and State Codes • OSHA Emergency lighting products have to meet requirements set by:

42. Special Hazard Systems • Testing • Service Utilized mainly for protection against fire in computer rooms, flammable and combustible storage rooms.

43. Range Hood Suppression Systems • Dry chemical extinguishing system • Wet chemical extinguishing system • UL 300

44. Inspection / Testing • Semiannual • Check for last hydro-test date • Change fusible links (annual) • Check for proper shut off of cooking equipment and shut down of exhaust fans Fixed extinguishing system designed to discharge automatically or manually in the event of a a fire.
