These are real pages from the book. The table of contents is the full one: 8 parts and 60 topics.
You're on a job with a pre-action system and the foreman asks two things: what's in the pipe right now, and what opens the valve. You know you studied this.
The manual covers wet, dry, pre-action and deluge in four separate chapters, pages apart, all in paragraphs. Nothing puts the four next to each other, so they blur together.
In the book, the four systems are drawn in the same view on one page: what fills the pipe, what opens the valve, what the heads look like. You see what changes in one look.
The same goes for the wet riser with its 9 numbered parts, the glass bulb breaking, static vs. residual pressure, the NFPA 25 frequency table and the steps before any test. Each one has its own page.
You answer the foreman, and on the next job you do it without opening the manual again.
How a system works, the sprinkler head, the four system types, the riser valve by valve, water supply, inspection frequencies, tests step by step, and deficiencies and impairments: 64 pages, all illustrated
Think of it this way:
It's 7 a.m. in the riser room and you have to run the main drain test before the insurance inspector shows up. You need the steps in order, not a table.
You open the book to the main drain test and see the riser drawn, with the drain valve and the supply gauge marked, and the steps numbered: note the static pressure, open the drain fully, read the residual, close it slowly, wait for the pressure to come back, then compare with the last test. One page, one order, every time.
Same with the dry pipe valve, the bulb colors, OS&Y vs. PIV, the quarterly items and the 18-inch rule: each one on its own page.
Fire Sprinkler Systems Illustrated is 8 parts and 60 topics, all drawn, plus 2 bonus books: exam-style practice questions and before/after deficiency sheets.
What you see drawn, you don't have to memorize.
Only the heads over the fire open, the water path from the street to the head, mains and branch lines, NFPA 13 vs. NFPA 25, hazard classes and who is responsible.
Anatomy of a sprinkler, how the glass bulb breaks, bulb and frame colors, pendent, upright, sidewall and concealed, K-factor, ESFR and the spare cabinet.
Wet, dry, pre-action and deluge in the same view, inside the dry pipe valve, quick-opening devices and pitch, and antifreeze systems.
The wet riser labeled, OS&Y, butterfly and PIV, supervised valves, the two gauges, waterflow alarms, the FDC, the dry riser and the backflow preventer.
Static, residual and flow, pressure lost to height and friction, density and design area, hose stream allowance and the fire pump in one page.
How to read an NFPA 25 frequency table, then the weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannual, annual and five-year items as checklists, and when heads must be replaced or tested.
Notify, tag and record, the main drain test in order and how to read it, the inspector's test, partial and full trip tests, resetting a dry valve and the antifreeze test.
Deficiency, critical deficiency and impairment, heads to replace, the 18-inch rule, escutcheons and hangers, corrosion and MIC, handling an impairment and a one-page riser walk-through.
At the end of the book: A one-page riser walk-through at the end to review everything.
Test yourself on system types, riser parts and ITM frequencies, and see why each answer is right before the real exam or inspection.
Painted heads, missing escutcheons, blocked heads, corrosion: spot each one at a glance and know how it gets corrected.
