What is a Wet Alarm Check Valve?

A wet alarm check valve is a vital part of a wet pipe sprinkler system, designed to control water flow in a wet pipe sprinkler system. If water flows through the system due to the activation of the sprinkler head by flames, the wet alarm check valve will signal an alarm.

In addition to preventing the reversed flow of water, it mechanically or hydraulically signals an alarm to notify authorities or building occupants. The fire alarm check valve also ensures that the pressure on the water system is maintained, meaning that when emergencies happen, the wet alarm check valve is always in a state to function.
