Landing Valves and Hydrant Valves in Bhopal

Landing valves, also called hydrant valves, are the hose outlets on a fire hydrant main, wet riser or downcomer, where a fire hose is connected and the water is opened. Fire Protection System supplies landing valves, pressure regulating hydrant valves, stand posts and underground hydrants from Kartar Valves, Zoloto, New Age, Minimax, Savemax, Aaag and Balaji Fire Safety in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh.

Aaag

Aaag Underground Hydrant, Cast Iron (AAAG C200)

Underground hydrantCast ironIS 210

A hydrant that works like an outdoor hydrant but is installed below ground under a manhole cover, which suits places such as airports where outdoor hydrants are hard to install. Cast iron body to IS 210 with a gunmetal outlet.

How to choose

Start with the number of outlets. A single headed valve feeds one hose line and suits most floor landings on wet risers and downcomers and most yard hydrants. A double headed valve feeds two hose lines from one point and is chosen where two jets may be needed together, such as large floor plates, basements and high risk occupancies. Minimax flow tests its single headed Type A valve at 900 LPM and its double headed Type B valve at 1800 LPM, both at 7 kg/cm2. Most models here are oblique pattern, and New Age and Aaag also offer right angle, horizontal, downward or turn down, straight, bib nose and gate pattern valves for cabinets and shafts where the hose has to leave the valve in a particular direction.

Next match the connections. Most single headed valves have a 3 inch flanged inlet, listed as 75 NB by Aaag, 80 mm by Kartar Valves, Zoloto and Minimax and 3 inch by New Age, while the double headed valves from Kartar Valves, New Age, Minimax and Aaag take a 100 mm (4 inch) inlet, so the valve must suit the branch on your riser or hydrant main. The hose outlet is a 63 mm (2.5 inch) female instantaneous coupling on most models, Kartar's website gives 65 mm, and New Age can also supply NH, NST or BSP male threaded outlets, so check the outlet against the couplings on your hoses. New Age and Aaag also offer BSP threaded inlet versions for threaded pipework.

Then choose the body material and the standard your project specifies. Gunmetal or bronze bodies are offered by most makers here, stainless steel (SS 202 or SS 304 from Balaji Fire Safety, SS 304 from Zoloto, SS 316 on Aaag's FM Approved valve) suits sites that need corrosion resistance, and Kartar Valves and Balaji Fire Safety also offer cast iron bodies with stainless steel or gunmetal working parts. Valves made to IS 5290 with the ISI mark are listed by Kartar Valves, New Age, Minimax, Savemax and Aaag, Savemax also lists CPWD approval, and Zoloto designs its bronze and SS 304 valves to IS 5290 Type A. Where a project calls for other approvals, New Age and Aaag offer FM Approved valves, Aaag offers BS 5041-1 wet riser valves, some LPCB approved, and New Age a UL Listed brass angle hose valve in 38 mm and 65 mm.

On tall buildings the lower floors see far higher pressure than the top, which can make a hose hard to handle. Pressure reducing or regulating landing valves hold a steadier outlet pressure: Aaag's bronze valve to BS 5041-1 is LPCB approved and handles inlet pressures up to 20 bar, Aaag also makes an SS 304 regulating valve with an 80 mm flanged inlet, New Age's Class F valve to BS 5041 and its bib nose regulating valve can be adjusted on site for each floor, and New Age's pressure restricting valve limits how far the valve opens. FPS installs, pressure tests and maintains hydrant valves across Madhya Pradesh.

Frequently asked questions

What is a landing valve used for?
A landing valve is the hose outlet of a fire hydrant system. It is fitted at each floor landing of a wet riser or downcomer, and on stand posts along an outdoor hydrant main, so that a fire hose can be connected and the water opened.
Should I choose a single or double headed hydrant valve?
A single headed valve feeds one hose and suits most floor landings and yard hydrants. A double headed valve feeds two hoses from one point, and Savemax suggests it for high risk occupancies, large floor plates and basements. Minimax flow tests its double headed valve at 1800 LPM against 900 LPM for its single headed valve.
What do IS 5290 Type A and Type B mean?
In the Kartar Valves and Minimax ranges, Type A is the single outlet landing valve and Type B the double outlet valve, both ISI marked. Minimax makes its Type A valve with an 80 mm flanged inlet and one 63 mm outlet, and its Type B valve with a 100 mm inlet and two 63 mm outlets.
When is a pressure reducing landing valve needed?
On tall buildings and long or high pressure mains, the pressure at the lower outlets can be too high for a hose crew to handle safely. A pressure reducing or regulating valve holds a steadier outlet pressure: Aaag's bronze valve to BS 5041-1 handles inlet pressures up to 20 bar, and New Age's Class F valve is field adjustable to suit each floor level.
Do you supply stand posts and underground hydrants?
Yes. Kartar Valves offers an MS fabricated stand post for two landing valves and underground hydrant sets to IS 909, New Age offers one, two and four way standposts and a dry barrel pillar hydrant, and Aaag offers wet hydrants, underground hydrants, standpipes and hydrant keys.
Does FPS install hydrant valves, and how do I get a price?
FPS supplies, installs and maintains landing valves and hydrant systems in Bhopal and across MP. Prices depend on type, material and quantity and are shared on request: call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060.
