New Age Landing Valves, Hydrants and Standposts in Bhopal

Fire Protection System (FPS), a New Age supplier in Bhopal, supplies New Age gunmetal landing valves (ISI marked, FM Approved and standard patterns), pressure regulating and restricting valves, standpipes, underground and pillar hydrants and hydrant standposts for hydrant systems across Madhya Pradesh.

Where to use Landing Valves and Hydrants

  • Wet riser landing points on each floor of high rise buildings
  • High pressure wet risers that call for FM Approved landing valves
  • Tall buildings where hose pressure must be held steady floor by floor (pressure regulating valves)
  • Marine and on shore installations (FM Approved bib nose valves)
  • Yard hydrant systems in factories, refineries and tank farms (standposts and pillar hydrants)
  • Underground hydrant points in roads and yards, used with a surface box and standpipe
  • Hose connections on standpipe and hose systems (UL Listed angle hose valve)
  • Monitor connections on a hydrant main (two way standpost with optional monitor outlet)

How to choose

A landing valve is the hydrant outlet where the fire hose is connected. New Age makes gunmetal landing valves in oblique, straight, right angled, turn down, bib nose and gate patterns; the pattern sets the direction in which the hose leaves the valve, so choose it to suit the space around the riser or hydrant post. Most have a 3 inch flanged inlet and a 2½ inch female instantaneous outlet, with NH, NST or BSP male threaded outlets also offered on several models.

Check the approval your project needs. The oblique flanged valve and the double headed hydrant valve are ISI marked to IS 5290, the Indian Standard for landing valves. The oblique flanged and oblique threaded valves and both bib nose valves are FM Approved, and the brass angle hose valve is UL Listed. The straight, right angled, turn down and gate pattern valves are not listed with an approval.

In tall buildings the pressure at the lower landing valves can be too high for safe hose handling. A pressure regulating valve, such as New Age's Class F valve to BS 5041 or its bib nose pressure regulating valve, holds a steady outlet pressure whatever the inlet pressure and can be adjusted on site for each floor. A pressure restricting valve is simpler: it limits how far the valve opens, which lowers the pressure while water flows but has no effect on static pressure.

For yard hydrant systems, choose between hydrant standposts (one, two or four way), a dry barrel pillar hydrant with a 4 inch pumper connection, and underground hydrants used with a surface box and an aluminium standpipe with BS 336 instantaneous outlets. These are listed with a working pressure of 150 psi. FPS supplies and installs New Age hydrant equipment across Madhya Pradesh.

Frequently asked questions

Which New Age landing valves are ISI marked or FM Approved?
The oblique flanged landing valve and the double headed hydrant valve are ISI marked to IS 5290. The oblique flanged and oblique threaded valves and the flanged and threaded bib nose valves are FM Approved.
What is the difference between a pressure regulating and a pressure restricting valve?
A pressure regulating valve holds a steady outlet pressure whatever the inlet pressure, and New Age's versions can be set on site for each floor. A pressure restricting valve only limits how far the valve opens, so it lowers pressure while water flows but does not change the static pressure.
What is IS 5290?
IS 5290 is the Indian Standard for landing valves. New Age makes its ISI marked oblique flanged landing valve and double headed hydrant valve to IS 5290 (1993 edition).
What is a standpipe used for?
A standpipe fits onto an underground hydrant and brings the water up to hose level, with instantaneous outlets for fire hoses. New Age makes single and double standpipes in aluminium with outlets to BS 336, rated for a 150 psi working pressure.
What is a dry barrel pillar hydrant?
It is an above ground hydrant opened with a hydrant wrench at the top. New Age's cast iron version is 4 inch, with two 2½ inch gunmetal instantaneous outlets and a 4 inch pumper connection.
How do I get a price for New Age landing valves and hydrants?
Prices depend on model, size and quantity and are given on request. Call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060 and FPS will quote for supply, or supply with installation across MP.
