Description Water supply pressure Min. Air pressure Max Air pressure
1.5 1.5 2.0
As an essential part of a wet sprinkler system, LIFECO Wet Alarm Valve is used as a device 3 1.5 2.0
that detects water flow in the fire equipment installed in residential area, manufacturing 5 1.5 2.0
area, and so on. 7 1.5 2.0
8.5 1.5 2.0
The valve is designed to initiate an alarm during a sustained flow of water (such as the 10 1.7 2.2
flow required by an open sprinkler) by operating an optional water motor alarm and/or a 10 over 2.2 2.7
pressure switch.
When a sustained flow of water occurs, such as an activated sprinkler, open sprinkler or an Operational Mechanism of Alarm Valve
open authorized person’s test connection, the clapper lifts from its closed position, this
allows water flow into the intermediate chamber through the holes in the seat ring and it
will fill the retarding chamber completely. The water flows from intermediate chamber to
the alarm line and activates the water motor alarm and/or the pressure switch for the
electric alarm. These alarm continue to sound until the flow of water stops.
