A sprinkler system employing automatic sprinklers that are attached to a piping system that contains air that might or might not be under pressure, with a supplemental detection system installed in the same areas as the sprinklers.
Preaction systems are typically installed in areas where water damage due to accidental discharge of the sprinklers or breakage of the piping is a concern, or damage in the sprinklers and piping due to freezing. There are three types of preaction systems: non-interlock,single interlock, and double interlock.
non interlock: water flow to sprinklers upon fused sprinkler or detection
single interlock: water flow upon detection
Double interlock: water flow only when detection and sprinklers detect fire

How does a sprinkler valve work to control the flow of water in a sprinkler system?
A sprinkler valve works by opening and closing to control the flow of water in a sprinkler system. When the valve is open, water is allowed to flow through the system and reach the sprinkler heads, which then spray water onto the desired area. When the valve is closed, water flow is stopped, preventing water from reaching the sprinkler heads. This allows for precise control over when and where water is distributed in the sprinkler system.
