ALARMPRESSURESWITCHES
1. Air supervisory pressure switches are required for dry systems and
must be set according to the following notes. NOTE: Switches for
Vic-Quick Risers are pre-set at the factory.
1a. Wire the air supervisory pressure switches to activate a
low-pressure alarm signal. NOTE: In addition, the local
authority having jurisdiction may require a high-pressure
alarm. Contact the local authority having jurisdiction for this
requirement.
1b. Set the air supervisory pressure switches to activate at
2 – 4 psi/14 28 kPa/0.1 0.3 Bar below the minimum air
pressure required (but not lower than 10 psi/69 kPa/0.7 Bar).
1c. Wire the alarm pressure switch to activate a water flow alarm.
1d. Set the alarm pressure switch to activate on a pressure rise of
4 – 8 psi/28 55 kPa/0.3 – 0.6 Bar.
IMPORTANTINSTALLATIONINFORMATION
1. For proper operation and approval, the Series 769 FireLock NXT
Deluge Valve must be installed in accordance with the specific trim
diagrams included with the shipment.
2. Before installing the Series 769 FireLock NXT Deluge Valve, flush
the water supply piping thoroughly to remove all foreign material.
3. Series 769 FireLock NXT Deluge Valves MUST NOT be located in
an area where the valve can be exposed to freezing temperatures.
In addition, the Series 769 FireLock NXT Deluge Valve MUST NOT
be located in an area where physical damage may occur.
4. It is the system designer’s responsibility to confirm material com-
patibility of the Series 769 FireLock NXT Deluge Valve, trim, and
associated accessories when a corrosive environment or contami-
nated water is present.

6. Air or nitrogen supply to the dry piping system must be clean, dry,
and oil-free.
7. Air supplies must be regulated, restricted, and continuous.
8. When the Series 769 FireLock NXT Deluge Valve is used
with a water motor alarm, Victaulic recommends the use of
an uninterrupted, low-pressure alarm that is installed on the
diaphragm charge line downstream of the strainer/check restrictor.
9. Per NFPA 13 requirements, piping must be pitched so that
systems can drain properly. For areas that are subject to high
levels of condensation, or where piping is not properly pitched, an
optional Series 75D Water Column Device kit is available to assist
in automatically draining water out of the riser.
