table regularly due to the important of these parts in the security and fire prevention.
2. The materials of these parts will degenerate along with the passage of time, or more easy to wear, corrosion.
Moreover, it is very difficult to determine the state of these parts simply according to the regular maintenance.
Therefore, no matter what usage state they are, it is necessary to change these parts regularly in order to ensure their
performance.
3. If the parts not work properly even less than the time for replacement, they should be repaired or replaced immediately.
