GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 4 and 6 inch (100 and 150 mm),
Model F470H Horizontal Multimatic
Deluge Valves are differential latch
type valves designed for fire protection
system service. They are used as
“automatic water control valves” in del-
uge, preaction, and foam-water fire
protection systems.The F470H Valves
also provide for actuation of fire alarms
upon system operation.

vided by an actuation (detection) sys-
tem that is separate from the normally
dry system piping. Trim configuration
options for automatic operation of the
F470H include wet pilot actuation, dry
pilot actuation, and electric actuation.
The various trim arrangements also
provide for local emergency (manual)
release of the F470H Valves.
