Fire Sprinkler Demo Trailer Available For
Community Education

trailer

The Fire Sprinkler Demonstration Trailer is available for community education and training classes.

Using a real fire scenario, the unit is designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of automatic fire sprinklers. Viewers can get a close-up view of a sprinkler activating either outside or inside the trailer. After the fire is started in a wastebasket, it spreads up a drape. Within seconds, the smoke activates the smoke alarm. A few seconds later, the heat activates the single sprinkler which extinguishes the fire.

Members and contractors of Sprinkler Fitters Local 183 and 669 can provide assistance with transportation and presentation.

YOUR BROWSER MUST ALLOW POP-UPS IN ORDER TO LINK TO OTHER WEBSITES OR VIEW PDF FILES.
