SYSTEM S-12 - S-13 EXAM
QUESTIONS & ACCURATE ANSWERS
PASSED 100%
A standpipe system that is attached to a water supply capable of supplying the system
demand at all times and that requires no action other than opening a hose valve to
provide water at hose connections. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Automatic Standpipe System
A condition in a centrifugal in which the impeller is rotating, but no water is being
discharged. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Churning
A system where the water piping service both 2 1/2in (65) outlet for fire Department use
and oulet for automatic sprinkler - Correct Answer ✔✔ Combination Standpipe and
Sprinkler System
A recessed sprinkler with a cover plate - Correct Answer ✔✔ Concealed Sprinkler
water supply control valve intended to be operated by actuation of an automatic
detection system that is installed in the same area as the discharge devices. Suitable
for HAZARDOUS OCCUPANCIES. INTENDED USE IS MANUAL AND AUTO - Correct
Answer ✔✔ Deluge Valve
A sprinkler system employing open sprinklers that are attached to a piping system that
is connected to a water supply through a VALVE that is opened of a DETECTION
SYSTEM installed in the same area as the sprinklers - Correct Answer ✔✔ Deludge
Sprinkler System
A sprinkler system employing automatic sprinklers that are attached to a piping system
containing air or nitrogen under pressure. The release of the air or nitrogen,(as from the
opening of a sprinkler) results in the water pressure opening a valve known as a dry
pipe valve, resulting in the flow of water into the piping system and out of the fused
sprinklers heads. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Dry Pipe Sprinkler System
A sprinkler secured in an extension nipple that has a seal at the inlet to prevent water
from entering the nipple until the sprinkler operates. May be configured with an upright,
pendent or sidewall sprinkler. AUTO/NON_AUTO - Correct Answer ✔✔ Dry Sprinkler
A standpipe system designed to have piping contain water only when the system is
being utilized (NO AUTOMATIC WATER SUPPLY) - Correct Answer ✔✔ Dry Standpipe
, A connection, normally on the exterior of the building. (FORMERLY KNOW AS
SIAMESE CONNECTION) - Correct Answer ✔✔ Fire Department Connection
A flexible conduit constructed of one or more reinforcements (JACKETS), - Correct
Answer ✔✔ Fire Hose
A valve connection on a water supply system having one or more outlets and that is
used to supply hose and fire department pumps with water. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Fire
Hydrant
A sprinkler operated by heat breaking a glass bulb filled with a non-freezing liquid with
diamiter that vary from 3mm for quick response sprinklers to 5mm for standard
response sprinklers. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Bulb Sprinkler
a combination of equipment provided for connection of a hose to the standpipe system
that includes a hose valve with a threaded outlet. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Hose
Connection
a combination of a hose rack, hose nozzle, hose, and hose connection. - Correct
Answer ✔✔ Hose Station
Person responsible for ensuring the proper safety precautions are taken when the fire
protection system is placed out of service (designated by the owner) - Correct Answer
✔✔ Impairment Coordinator
The Status of hose stored in a hose house, on a rack or reel, or on a fire apparatus that
is available and ready for immediate use at an incident. - Correct Answer ✔✔ In Service
Supervision by the holder of a department certificate who is required to be personally
present on the premises, or other proximate location acceptable to the department,
while the duties for which the certificate is required is being performed. - Correct Answer
✔✔ Personal Supervision
A valve or device designed for the purpose of reducing of reducing the downstream
water pressure under both flowing (residual) and non-flowing (static) conditions -
Correct Answer ✔✔ Pressure Restricting Device
A valve or device designed for the purpose of reducing of reducing the downstream
water pressure under flowing (residual) conditions only. - Correct Answer ✔✔ Pressure
Reducing Valve
A tank using air pressure to supplying water for water-based fire protection systems.
Tank contents to be maintained at one third air to two thirds water. - Correct Answer
✔✔ Pressure Tank
