Air Compressors

Air Compressors for Fire Protection: Maintaining System Pressure

Product Summary: Air compressors for fire protection are specifically designed to provide and maintain the necessary air pressure in dry pipe and pre-action fire sprinkler systems. These systems rely on compressed air to hold back water from the sprinkler heads until a fire is detected.   

Detailed Description:

Dry pipe and pre-action sprinkler systems are used in locations where freezing temperatures could damage water-filled pipes, such as unheated warehouses or outdoor areas. These systems use compressed air to keep the pipes dry until a fire triggers the system. The air compressor is a vital component, ensuring the system is properly pressurized and ready to function.
