superior pressure resistance and structural stability. Made of high-quality brass, the valve has excellent ductility and impact resistance, and the PN 16 pressure rating ensures it can stably bear a maximum working pressure of 1.6MPa, fully matching the standard pressure of indoor fire water supply systems. It can operate stably without cracking, leaking, or deforming even when the water pressure fluctuates in emergency fire scenarios, and the solid brass structure also enhances its load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for long-term high-pressure standby in various indoor environments.

02/

strong corrosion resistance and long service life. The valve is mainly used in indoor environments such as basements, underground garages, and industrial workshops, which are often humid and prone to dust accumulation. Brass itself has excellent anti-rust and corrosion resistance, and after special surface treatment, it can effectively resist moisture, dust, and slight chemical erosion, avoiding rusting, aging, or blockage caused by long-term use, thus extending the service life and reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement.

03/

reliable sealing performance and stable water supply. The valve adopts a precision-designed sealing structure and high-quality sealing components, which can effectively prevent water leakage under PN 16 working pressure, ensuring uninterrupted and stable fire water supply when the valve is opened. The internal valve core is smooth and wear-resistant, enabling flexible on-off control and stable water flow adjustment to meet the needs of different indoor fire suppression scenarios.

04/

easy installation, operation, and strong compatibility. The valve has a compact and reasonable structural design, suitable for installation in fire hydrant boxes, wall mounts, or other limited indoor spaces, and the installation process is simple without complex construction or professional equipment. The ergonomically designed handle allows quick and flexible operation in emergencies, and it is compatible with various indoor fire water pipelines and fire-fighting tools, adapting to different indoor fire protection layout needs.

Why Choose PN 16 brass Landing Valve

 

The use of forede PN 16 Brass Landing Valve follows a simple and standardized process, fully considering its PN 16 pressure rating and brass material characteristics, ensuring reliable operation in emergency situations, with each step designed to maximize efficiency and safety. Firstly, pre-installation and preparation: select a suitable indoor position (such as fire hydrant boxes, wall mounts) that is easy to access, unobstructed, and close to the fire water supply pipeline. Ensure the installation surface is flat and stable to avoid valve tilting. Connect the valve to the indoor fire water pipeline, ensure the connection is tight and free of leakage, and confirm the pipeline pressure matches the PN 16 rating. Check the valve's appearance and internal components to ensure no damage, deformation, or blockage, and confirm the brass body is intact without cracks. Secondly, commissioning: after installation, open the main valve of the fire water system to inject water into the valve, check for water leakage at the connection and sealing parts under working pressure. Test the on-off function by rotating the handle: clockwise to close, counterclockwise to open, ensuring flexible and smooth operation. Adjust the valve to check water flow stability, ensuring it can be adjusted freely to meet fire suppression needs. Thirdly, daily standby and inspection: the valve is in long-term standby, so regular inspections are required. Clean the valve surface and handle regularly, check for rust, corrosion, or damage, and inspect the sealing performance to ensure no water leakage. Keep the fire hydrant box intact and unobstructed. In case of fire, open the fire hydrant box, take out the hose, connect one end to the valve's outlet and tighten, rotate the handle counterclockwise to open the valve, adjust water flow according to the fire scale, and use the hose to suppress the fire. Finally, post-use maintenance: after the fire is extinguished, close the valve clockwise, disconnect the hose, and clean the valve and hose thoroughly. Check the valve for damage, leakage, or blockage, especially the sealing parts and brass body. Clean the valve's internal and external components to remove debris or scale, and inspect the sealing components for wear; replace them if necessary. Ensure the valve is closed tightly and reset to the standby position, and record the use situation for subsequent maintenance and inspection, ensuring the valve remains compatible with PN 16 pressure requirements and maintains stable performance for long-term use.

Where to use PN 16 brass Landing Valve?

Residential buildings

residential buildings, including high-rise residential buildings, multi-storey residential buildings, and residential communities. These places have dense residents and complex indoor structures, and indoor fires such as electrical fires and furniture fires are prone to occur. The PN 16 pressure rating ensures stable water supply under standard indoor fire water pressure, and the valve is installed in the fire hydrant box on each floor, allowing firefighters to quickly access the water source on each floor to suppress fires, preventing the fire from spreading and protecting residents' safety and property. The brass material's corrosion resistance is particularly suitable for humid environments such as residential basements.

Large commercial and public buildings

large commercial and public buildings, such as shopping malls, hotels, office buildings, and hospitals. These places have large indoor spaces, dense personnel, and a large number of flammable materials such as decorations and electrical equipment, with high fire risks. The valve is installed in fire hydrant boxes along corridors, stairwells, and public areas, ensuring the fire water supply covers the entire indoor space. Its PN 16 pressure rating ensures stable water output even in large-scale fire scenarios, enabling firefighters to quickly connect hoses to suppress fires and minimize casualties and losses.

Indoor industrial facilities,

Indoor industrial facilities, such as manufacturing workshops, indoor warehouses, and production plants. These indoor environments may have flammable materials, high-temperature equipment, or electrical equipment, which are prone to fire. The PN 16 pressure rating enables the valve to adapt to the slightly higher water pressure requirements of industrial fire water systems, while the brass body can withstand the harsh indoor industrial environment, resist dust and slight chemical erosion, and provide a stable water source for fire suppression.

Public institutions and cultural venues,

public institutions and cultural venues, such as schools, libraries, museums, and theaters. These places have high requirements for fire safety, with dense personnel and valuable assets. The valve is installed in key areas, ensuring that in case of fire, the fire water can be supplied in a timely and stable manner under standard pressure, suppressing the fire quickly while minimizing damage to cultural relics, books, and public facilities.
