Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe Sign

Size: 10x12

Material: Aluminum

Color: White

A Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe Sign is a critical safety sign that indicates the location of a dry standpipe system that is pressurized with air in a building. The dry standpipe system is a network of pipes and valves that are not filled with water, but instead are pressurized with air and connected to an external water supply. The sign is typically placed near the location of the system, indicating where firefighters or other res ponders can connect hoses to the standpipe system in the event of a fire.

The sign is made of durable materials such as aluminum, which is rust-free, and is reflective, which makes it visible even in low light conditions. The reflective material enhances the sign's visibility, especially during emergencies, allowing responders to easily locate the Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe System. The sign is also weather-resistant, which means it can withstand harsh weather conditions such as rain, wind, and extreme temperatures without fading or deteriorating.

The dimensions of a Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe Sign are typically 10 inches by 12 inches, which makes it large enough to be seen from a distance but not too big that it becomes obtrusive. The sign's size and placement must comply with relevant building codes and regulations to ensure that it is easily noticeable and accessible during emergencies. It is crucial to ensure that the sign is placed in a location that is unobstructed and free from any obstructions that could hinder visibility.

In conclusion, a Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe Sign is a vital safety sign that plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of a building's occupants during emergencies. The sign is designed to be highly visible, weather-resistant, and compliant with relevant building codes and regulations. By providing clear and concise information about the location of the Dry PRESSURIZED Standpipe System, the sign can help responders quickly locate and activate the standpipe system, which can help to prevent or minimize the impact of a fire.

Our standpipe signs – Design to inform 1st responded about the standpipe system in the building and their locations. A Standpipe system is a series of pipes which connect a water supply to hose connections, basically an extension of the fire hydrant system. They are designed to provide a pre-piped water system for building occupants or the fire department.

A standpipe system is An arrangement of piping, valves hose connections and other equipment installed in a building or structure, with the hose connections located in such a manner that water can be discharged in streams through attached hose and nozzles, for the purposes of extinguishing a fire, thereby protecting a building or structure and its contents in addition to protecting the occupants. This is accomplished by means of connections to water supply systems or by means of pump tanks and other equipment necessary to provide an adequate supply of water to the hose connections.”

It is, essentially, a way of delivering water from one area of the structure or facility to another so that we can fight the fire while at the same time shortening the length of the supply and attack lines. Standpipes can be an intricate or simple system, but the result is the same: water delivery. These systems can be vertical (which is the common type) or they can be horizontal.   

Below are four types of standpipes that you will find in use:

• Wet system. Here, water is in the pipes at all times and is supplied by a water source. The pressure in the system is constantly maintained.
• Automatic dry standpipe. Here, there is always air stored inside the standpipe at a constant pressure. When a hose valve is opened, the air escapes allowing the water to enter into the standpipe system.
• Semi-automatic dry standpipe. In this system, air is stored inside the pipes, which can be pressurized or not be pressurized. Once an actuation device such as a manual pull station or an electrical switch is activated, water then enters the system.
• Manual dry standpipe. This type of system has only pipes feeding the system with no air or water in them. A fire apparatus must be used to supply the water through the standpipe.
