Method and system for testing emergency water system pressure

摘要

An emergency water system testing system (20) is provided which includes a retaining tank (21) having inlet conduits (23 and 24), a vent (25), and an outlet conduit (26). The testing system also includes a support carriage (33) having four lockable wheels (34) and a flow measuring device (36). The system may be coupled to the coupler valve (14) of an emergency water system (12) so that water expelled from the emergency water system is contained on sight while the flow rate of the water is determined. In this manner the water expelled from the water system may then be moved to a remote location and controllably discharged.
