Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to various types of powder nozzles that use dry powder as the extinguishing medium. It is specifically designed for fire-fighting equipment used by single or multiple operators. Manufacturers of fire suppression devices must comply with this standard to enter the Chinese market. It does not cover nozzles designed for other extinguishing agents like foam or water.
Technical requirements
Chapter 5 of this standard outlines the mandatory performance requirements for powder nozzles. It specifies criteria for appearance, basic performance parameters, and material selection. Components in direct contact with dry powder must be made of corrosion-resistant materials such as copper or stainless steel. Compliance with these material specifications is strictly enforced to ensure operational reliability. The standard also defines critical operational metrics, including effective discharge rate, working pressure range, and effective range. These parameters dictate the nozzle's firefighting efficiency. Additionally, it sets forth requirements for sealing performance, hydrostatic strength, and drop resistance to ensure durability in harsh environments. GB 8181-2005 is referenced for certain drop and corrosion test procedures. Furthermore, the standard mandates specific structural designs for operating mechanisms, such as lever-type, bow-type, and trigger-type switches. The operating torque must not exceed specified limits. Manufacturers must ensure that interface types and dimensions comply with the relevant GB 12514 series standards.
Testing methods
The standard details various testing methods to verify compliance. Key tests include the basic performance test to measure effective discharge time and range, the sealing performance test conducted underwater, and the hydrostatic strength test. It also references GB 8181-2005 for drop and corrosion resistance testing, alongside specific procedures for evaluating jet impact resistance and operating torque.
FAQs
