17.3.2 A round through the risk shall be undertaken before a part or total
shut down to ensure that there is no indication of fire.

17.4 UNPLANNED SHUT DOWN
17.5.3 The sprinkler pump shall not be shut off until the extinguishment
of the fire. The starting of the pump shall be automatic and the
stopping of the pump after an extinguishment shall be manual.
17.6.1 GENERAL
17.6.1.4 At least once a week the system shall be visually checked and
the reading of various pressure gauges of each Installation valve
shall be recorded.
17.6.1.5 A trained pump man shall be available on all shifts and at all
hours to operate the pump or whenever required.

17.6.2 FIRE WATER RESERVOIRS/TANK
17.6.2.1 It shall be ensured that firewater tank reservoirs are always full
and free from any foreign materials. The water level shall be
recorded weekly.
17.6.3.1 All the fire pumps shall be run at least 5 minutes everyday.
During testing water level of priming tank, delivery pressures of
pumps. speed. and also other parameters are to be checked and
recorded.
17.6.3.3 The bearing grease caps shall be checked once every week and
refilled with fresh grease. if necessary.

17.6.4.5 When normally opened valves are closed following the system
operation or test, suitable procedures shall be instituted to ensure
that they are reopened and that the system is promptly restored
to full normal operating condition.
17.6.4.8 It is important to ensure that the sprinkler bulbs are kept free
from paint or dust (otherwise it may not function correctly) and
that the bulbs are accessible and clearly identified for
maintenance purposes.
17.6.5.1 The pressure gauge readings above and below the valves shall
be monitored everyday at commencement of the first shift.
17.6.5.2 The time taken for the operation of alarm gong after opening the
drain valves shall be monitored every week and corrective actions
taken in case of malfunction of alarm gong.
