Per UPC 2021 Section 603.5.14, a potable water supply to a pressurized commercial automatic sprinkler or standpipe system that has no chemical additives may be protected by which testable assembly?

A double check valve backflow prevention assembly (DC) An atmospheric vacuum breaker (AVB) under continuous pressure A non-testable dual-check device listed only to ASSE 1024 A hose-connection vacuum breaker on the fire department connection

Correct Answer:

A double check valve backflow prevention assembly (DC)

Question 2

Where antifreeze, corrosion inhibitors, or other chemicals are added to a fire-protection system supplied from potable water, UPC 2021 Section 603.5.14.2 requires which protection?

A double check valve assembly is always sufficient No backflow assembly is required if the antifreeze is listed A pressure vacuum breaker installed 6 inches above the highest head A reduced-pressure principle assembly (RP) or a reduced-pressure detector fire-protection assembly

Correct Answer:

A reduced-pressure principle assembly (RP) or a reduced-pressure detector fire-protection assembly

Question 3

What component distinguishes a reduced-pressure principle backflow assembly from a double check valve assembly?

A single spring-loaded check valve and no test cocks A hydraulically operated differential relief valve located between two independently operating check valves An air inlet that opens only on the downstream side of the second check A water-motor gong piped off the supply side

A double check valve assembly only A pressure vacuum breaker at the FDC A reduced-pressure principle assembly or a reduced-pressure detector fire-protection assembly No additional protection; the FDC check valve is sufficient

A reduced-pressure principle assembly or a reduced-pressure detector fire-protection assembly

Question 5

UPC 2021 Section 603.5.14.3 requires which action when a backflow assembly is placed on the potable supply to a fire-protection system?

Ignore the assembly friction loss if the device is listed Add a flat 50 psi to every remote-head calculation Wait five years and then perform a main-drain test in lieu of design Account for the pressure drop through the assembly in the hydraulic design, and recheck an existing system if the device is retrofitted
