5. SYSTEM OPERATION
5.1 In the SET condition:
System water supply pressure enters the priming chamber of the deluge valve through the priming line, which includes a
normally open priming valve (A), strainer (B), restricted orifice (not shown), check valve (C) and also stops at the inlet of the
normally closed PORV (D). In the SET condition, water supply pressure is trapped in the priming chamber by check valve (C),
normally closed solenoid valve (E), and the emergency release (F). The pressure in the priming chamber holds the Deluge
Valve diaphragm closed, keeping the outlet chamber and system piping dry.
