Installation

The TYCO DV-5 Valve is to be installed
a
in accordance with this section.
NOTICE
Proper operation of the DV-5
depends upon their trim being installed
in accordance with the instructions
given in this technical data sheet.
Failure to follow the appropriate trim
diagram may prevent the DV-5
from functioning properly, as well as
void approvals and the manufacturer's
warranties.
The DV-5 Valve must be installed in a
a
readily visible and accessible location.
The DV-5 Valve, associated trim, and
a
wet pilot lines must be maintained at
a minimum temperature of 40°F (4°C).
Heat tracing of the DV-5
a
associated trim is not permitted. Heat
tracing can result in the formation of
hardened mineral deposits that are
capable of preventing proper operation.
The DV-5 Valve is to be installed in
a
accordance with the following criteria:
Step 1. All nipples, fittings, and devices
must be clean and free of scale and
burrs before installation. Use pipe
thread sealant sparingly on male pipe
threads only.
Step 2. The DV-5 Valve must be
a
trimmed in accordance with one of the
trim illustrations shown in Figures 7, 8,
and 9, as applicable.
Note: If the addition of an Alarm Control
Valve is desired or required by the local
AHJ, the Alarm Control Valve noted as
Item H in Figures 16, 17, and 18 is to
be a separately ordered electronically
supervised normally open valve.
Step 3. Care must be taken to ensure
that check valves, strainers, globe
valves, etc. are installed with the flow
arrows in the proper direction.
Step 4. Drain tubing to the Drip Funnel
must be installed with smooth bends
that will not restrict flow.
Step 5. The Main Drain and Drip Funnel
Drain may be interconnected provided
a check valve is located at least 12
inches (300 mm) below the Drip Funnel.
Step 6. Suitable provision must be
made for disposal of drain water. Drain-
age water must be directed such that
Valves
a
it will not cause accidental damage to
property or danger to persons.
Step 7. Connect the Diaphragm Supply
Valve to the inlet side of the System
Valve Main Control Valve in order to facilitate
a
setting of the DV-5
16, 17, and 18, as applicable).
Step 8. An Inspector's Test Connec-
tion, as described in the Wet Pilot Actu-
ation and Dry Pilot Actuation sections,
must be provided for Wet or Dry Pilot
Actuation systems.
Step 9. An Air Maintenance Device,
as described in the Dry Pilot Actuation
Valve or its
section, must be provided for Dry Pilot
Actuation.
Step 10. A desiccant dryer, when
specified for Dry Pilot Actuation, is to
be installed between a drip leg and the
Air Maintenance Device.
Step 11. The Low Pressure Alarm
Switch for Dry Pilot Actuation is to be
adjusted as follows:
• Low pressure alarm setting at
approximately 6 psi (0,4 bar) below
the minimum pilot line service pres-
sure requirement shown in Graph B
• Fire alarm setting at approximately
15 psi (1,0 bar) below the minimum
pilot line service pressure require-
ment shown in Graph B
Step 12. Unused Pressure Alarm
Switch connections must be plugged.
Step 13. The Dry Pilot Pressure Relief
Valve (Item Y - Fig. 17) provided with
the Dry Pilot Actuation Trim is factory
set to relieve at a pressure of approxi-
mately 45 psi (3,1 bar), which can typi-
cally be used for a maximum dry pilot
actuation system pressure of 40 psi
(2,8 bar). The Pressure Relief Valve may
be reset; however, it must be reset to
relieve at a pressure which is in accor-
dance with the requirements of the
authority having jurisdiction.
To reset the Dry Pilot Pressure Relief
Valve, first loosen the jam nut and then
adjust the cap accordingly, clockwise
for a higher pressure setting or counter
clockwise for a lower pressure setting.
After verifying the desired pressure
setting, tighten the jam nut.
Step 14. A suitable automatic supervi-
sory air (nitrogen) supply, as described
Valve (Ref. Figures in the Technical Data section, is to be
a
installed in accordance with the appli-
cable technical data sheet and set for
10 ± 2 psi (0,69 ± 0,14 bar).
Step 15. A desiccant dryer, when
required for the supervisory air supply,
is to be installed between a drip leg
and the Model AMD-1 Air Mainte-
nance Device or between the Model
G16AC812 Automatic Supervisory Air
Supply and the Preaction Trim.
Step 16. The Supervisory Low Pres-
sure Switch is to be wired to the super-
visory alarm initiating circuit of an alarm
panel.
Step 17. Conduit and electrical con-
nections are to be made in accordance
with the applicable standards of the
approval agency.
Step 18. Before a system hydrostatic
test is performed, the DV-5
Chamber is to be depressurized, the
Automatic Drain Valve is to be tem-
porarily replaced with a plug, and the
Diaphragm Cover Bolts must be uni-
formly and securely tightened using a
cross-draw sequence. After tighten-
ing, double-check to make certain that
all of the Diaphragm Cover Bolts are
securely tightened. Refer to Table C in
the Care and Maintenance section for
torque specifications.
NOTE: When installing dry pilot actua-
tion, the system will require two auto-
matic air supplies as described in Steps
9 and 14.
