WATER FLOW ANTI-TAMPERING AND ANTI-THEFT DEVICE
An anti-tampering mechanism for a fire hydrant that blocks inflow of fluids and materials through the pamper outlet into the lower barrel of the hydrant and to the water main. This mechanism comprises a modular valve, which stem extends only through the top barrel of the hydrant, and is in mechanical engagement and disengagement with a bottom seat that closes the top opening of the lower barrel. Thus, this mechanism blocks tampering with the water in both closed and open states of the valve. Further, the fire hydrant comprises a monitoring and anti-theft mechanism that comprises fluid flow sensors, wireless communication means and electronics accommodated in a housing that is attached to the lower barrel and and protectively enveloping them against tampering, vandalism and sabotaging.
