Abstract:
1. An arrangement for testing a fire suppression sprinkler system, comprising: a conduit for supplying a flow of fire suppression fluid to at least one sprinkler; a sensor configured to sense the flow of the fire suppression fluid to the at least one sprinkler, the sensor having a first condition indicative of a predetermined flow of the suppression fluid to the at least one sprinkler and a second condition indicative of a flow of the fire suppression fluid to the at least one sprinkler less than the predetermined flow; an actuator for selectively causing the sensor to be in the first condition or the second condition independent of the flow of the fire suppression fluid sensed by the sensor; and a signaler for providing an indication to a user that the sensor is in at least one of the first condition and the second condition.
