Fire fighting sprinkler systems

Balmoral M100 and M100-B30 sectional tanks are Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) approved for fire fighting sprinkler systems.

• Sprinkler systems must comply with BS EN 12845:2004

• A type AB air gap is required unless connected to a dedicated water supply

• Internal ladders should be stainless steel. External ladders compliant with BS 5395

• Water level indication is required on sprinkler tanks

• The water in sprinkler tanks tends to be inactive for long periods of time. Immersion heaters or other means of preventing freezing may be required

• In the event of a fire, large quantities of continuous flow are required. If a vortex inhibitor is fitted, the volume of water that can be drawn from the tank is increased without the inclusion of air or a reduction in the flow rate.
There are two main types of vortex inhibitor: positive head and suction lift
