meant to be general guidance, and should be in no
way taken as a guarantee of uid delivery time. All
systems and congurations are different and there are
always exceptions to the rule.
GDPA-LP
The Model GDPA-LP is only recommended for system
supply pressures up to 250 psi (17.2 Bar). The GDPA-
LP is factory painted green to identify the low pressure
version. The Model GDPA is the standard pressure ac-
tuator, while the GDPA-LP can be utilized for low sys-
tem air pressures. The types of systems where the
use of the GDPA-LP has the potential to be benecial
to system performance are: Dry Systems, and Double
Interlock Electric/Pneumatic Systems. There is little to
no advantage to utilizing the GDPA-LP in Single Inter-
lock Dry Pilot, or Deluge Dry Pilot Systems, as the pilot
lines generally have a very small volume and the valve
trips very quickly no matter the pilot line pressure.
If you have any questions on the application of the
GDPA vs the GDPA-LP contact Globe Sprinkler Tech-
nical Services.
