Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Handbook of Sprinkler Devices
Believing that a description of all the automatic sprinkler devices that are liable to be found in the field would be of service to fire insurance inspectors and others, the author presents herein four chapters from his book on Automatic Sprinkler Protection in handbook form.
These chapters cover the following subjects: Alarm Valves, Dry Valves, Sprinkler Supervisory Systems and Automatic Sprinklers. The chapter on the latter subject contains several references to previous pages for a further description of certain devices. These page numbers refer to pages in the complete volume to which the reader is referred for a more extended treatise on the subject.
While the subject matter may be somewhat incomplete and disconnected when published in this form it is hoped that it may prove useful to the field man as a reference book.
