*Do you want to learn more about the process of corrosion, and its effects on
fire sprinklers?*
Corrosion is a process caused by a chemical or electrochemical reaction
resulting in material - typically a metal - to deteriorate as it ages.
Corrosion is a serious concern for fire sprinklers, as their components are
made primarily of metal. This TechTalks episode will explore the impact of
corrosion on sprinkler reliability and share information on our corrosion
resistant offerings. Additional topics include requirements of fire sprinkler
codes and standards, and the mandatory corrosion testing for sprinklers.
