General
Description
The TYCO DV-5A Automatic Water
Control Valves are diaphragm type
valves that can be used in remote-
resetting deluge fire protection
systems. When properly trimmed,
the DV-5A Valve with Remote-Reset-
ting, Pressure-Reducing Trim can be
opened and closed during a full-flow
condition from a remote location. Key
features are as follows:
• Pressure-Reducing function main-
tains pre-set outlet pressure.
• Remote-resetting feature provides
the ability to reset the valve from one
or more locations.
• Compact, space-saving design
reduces valve room footprint and
construction costs.
• Electric actuation is compatible with
many types of automatic and manual
release options.
• Actuation of fire alarms upon system
operation is provided.
The DV-5a Valves are offered with the
DV-5a Valve and separately ordered
semi-assembled trim shown in Figure
6, or, for ease of installation, with the
DV-5a Valve completely trimmed with or
without a System Main Control Valve.
The diaphragm style design of the
DV-5A Valve allows external resetting,
providing for easy resetting of a deluge
system without having to open a valve
handhole cover to manually reposition
a clapper and/or latch mechanism.
Simply re-pressurizing the diaphragm
chamber resets the valve.
Operation of the DV-5A Valve with
Remote-Resetting, Pressure-Reducing
Trim is provided by an automatic elec-
tric detection system or remote manual
electric activation. The easily installed
trim configuration for the DV-5A Valve
with Remote-Resetting, Pressure-
Reducing Trim provides for emergency
(manual) release of the valve at the
valve location.
The DV-5A features internal and exter-
nal coating of the valve to provide
corrosion resistance. The external cor-
rosion resistance of the epoxy coating
permits the use of the DV-5A in cor-
rosive atmospheres associated with
many types of industrial processing
plants and outdoor installations.
NOTICE
The DV-5A Valves described herein
must be installed and maintained in
compliance with this document, as
well as with the applicable standards
of the NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION
ASSOCIATION (NFPA), in addition to
the standards of any other authorities
having jurisdiction. Failure to do so
may impair the performance of these
devices.
The owner is responsible for main-
taining their fire protection system
and devices in proper operating con-
dition. Contact the installing contrac-
tor or product manufacturer with any
questions.
