General
Description
The TYCO DV-5 Automatic Water
a
Control Valves are diaphragm type
valves that can be used in double inter-
lock preaction fire protection systems.
When properly trimmed, the double
seat design of the DV-5
a
provides actuation of fire alarms upon
system operation.
The diaphragm style design of the
DV-5 Valve allows external resetting,
a
providing for easy resetting of a deluge
system without having to open a valve
handhole cover to manually reposition
a clapper and/or latch mechanism.
Simply re-pressurizing the diaphragm
chamber resets the valve.
The DV-5 features internal and exter-
a
nal coating of the valve to provide
corrosion resistance. The external cor-
rosion resistance of the epoxy coating
permits the use of the DV-5
rosive atmospheres associated with
many types of industrial processing
plants and outdoor installations.
The DV-5 Valves are offered with the

Double interlock preaction systems are
designed for use in applications, such
as refrigerated areas, requiring the
maximum degree of protection against
in cor- inadvertent flooding of the sprinkler
a
system piping. In order for a double
interlock preaction system to automat-
ically activate, two independent events
must occur. First, the electric detection

system must operate, and secondly,
an automatic sprinkler on the system
piping must operate. Typically, the
electric detection system is designed to
operate before any automatic sprinkler.
Operation of just the electric detection,
or just the opening of a sprinkler will
not allow the DV-5
permit water to flow into the normally
dry sprinkler system piping. However,
operation of just the electric detec-
tion system or the opening of a sprin-
kler (loss of system air pressure) will
result in a supervisory alarm to notify
the building occupants of a condition
