Where will green tags be placed in a sprinkler system?

In a sprinkler system, green tags are placed on the main control valve. This practice serves an important purpose related to maintenance and identification. The main control valve is the primary valve for shutting off the water supply to the entire sprinkler system. By placing a green tag on this valve, it provides clear visibility for technicians and firefighters about the status and accessibility of the water supply.

These tags often indicate that the valve is operational and provides critical information for maintenance personnel and emergency responders when they need to quickly identify and access the control points of the system in order to ensure the proper functioning of fire protection measures or to conduct inspections. This enhances overall safety and efficiency in fire prevention efforts.

Other components, such as sectional valves, auxiliary valves, and test connections, may also be important in the context of a sprinkler system, but the primary focus of the green tag is specifically oriented towards the main control valve for clarity and swift action in emergencies.
