The Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB part of BRE Global) sets the standards needed to ensure that fire and security products and services perform effectively. LPCB’s Loss Prevention Standards (LPS) are applied in fire and security sectors around the world.

[https://www.redbooklive.com/lps.jsp LPS 1040 - 2.3, Requirements and testing procedures for the LPCB approval and listing of wet alarm valve sets], published by BRE Global in 2014, defines the K factor as the relationship between pressure and flow of an orifice where:

Flow = K √ Pressure
