Why FM certification is so important

 

Every component counts in fire protection systems. FM certification confirms that the product has been tested under real-world conditions and assessed as reliable, safe, and system-compatible. In sprinkler systems in particular, overflow valves must respond quickly to safely reduce pressure peaks and thus ensure the functionality of the entire system.

Our FM-certified 617 series fully meets these requirements. It ensures that the system operates stably in an emergency—a crucial factor for protecting people, buildings, and property.

For operators and planners of fire protection systems, choosing an FM-certified overflow valve is a guarantee of quality and compliance. Certification by FM Global strengthens confidence in the operational safety of the plant and facilitates international approval of projects.

 

Conclusion:

With FM certification for the 617 series, we are sending a strong signal about quality and safety. Our overflow valve offers maximum reliability in fire protection—a real plus for planners, installers, and operators of sprinkler systems worldwide.
