One control panel controls all pre action valves. Each riser includes an Alarm Pressure Switch, Low Air Alarm Pressure Switch, Tamper Switch and a Solenoid Valve. Each riser location will have a Latching Manual Pull for System Reset/Recharge to assist in resetting the pre action systems after user. Each pair (2) of risers to have an interior audible/visual alarms and exterior audible alarm.
Underground water supply to the risers is 10″ ductile iron pipe for approximately 1300 lineal feet. The water supply is boosted by a 1500 gpm electric driven fire booster pump rated at 86 psi.
Alarm and Detection:
One (1) Alarm and Detection system per Pre action Valve. Each system includes Rate of Rise Heat Detectors, Alarm Pressure Switch, Low Air Alarm Pressure Switch, Solenoid Valve, Audible and Visual Alarm notification. Included is a relay for the operation of the Dezurnik valve which controls the exterior containment drain pipe.
