Fire Protection

Easyflex’s new ultra performance flexible sprinkler drop features a 1 1/4" ID, which translates into less friction loss than 1" Schedule 40 pipe with the same number of 90s, Easyflex points out. This, in turn, helps expedite the process from design approval to completion of your project. www.easyflexusa.com

To limit the negative impact of a failed auxiliary drain, AGF created the model 5900FE FLOOD ELIMINATOR. The model 5900 allows condensate water to collect normally in a standard drum drip. Pressurized flow from a failed drum drip automatically trips the flood eliminator to cut off that flow and the resulting flood damage. www.agfmfg.com
