The breeching inlets are suitable for installation on dry risers only, in a building for fire fighting purposes, fitted with inlet connection at fire brigade access level and outlet connection at specified points, which is normally dry but capable of being charged with water by pumping from fire service appliances.
The materials used in the manufacture of the breeching inlets are
in conformity to the standard’s requirement. The body is casted
from spheroidal graphite iron and the inlets are made of copper alloy parts with bronze spring and stainless
steel locknut.
The internal part of the breeching inlet bodies are coated with
“black” epoxy cold tar paint which is a good anti-corrosion
protection. Each inlet connections are fitted with non-return valve and are of spring loaded mushroom type
The inlet blankcaps are rubber with chrome chain. Brass or
gunmetal blankcaps are also available on request.
The breeching inlets and its fittings are suitable for a normal working pressure of 10 bar. The breeching inlets are individually hydrostatically tested on the body and inlets at 20 bars (approx. 300 PSI) and the non-return valves are tested to 1.7 bars (approx. 25 PSI) to ensure that no leaks are evident under such low pressure as required by the standard
