Its important that this device be tested periodically in
compliance with local codes, but at least once per
year or more as service conditions warrant. If
installed on a fire sprinkler system, all mechanical
checks, such as alarm checks and backflow preven-
ters, should be flow tested and inspected internally
in accordance with NFPA 13 and NFPA 25.
