Deluge Valve

The document provides technical specifications for LIFECO preaction and deluge valves models LF-DV100A and LF-DV150A. The valves have external resetting functions and are used in fire protection systems. They have simple configurations, are durable, reliable, and UL and FM approved. The valves operate to allow water flow into sprinkler systems when activated by detection devices via electric, dry pilot, or wet pilot actuation trim options.

Preaction & Deluge Valve


Model No: LF-DV100A & LF-DV150A

Deluge Valve Equipped with Trim:


When the deluge valve operates, it continually vents the diaphragm chamber to prevent
the deluge valve from the resetting condition. Deluge valve can only be reset after the
system is taken out of service and trim piping is depressurized and drained.

In Service Condition:
System pressure is supplied to the diaphragm chamber through the restricted priming line
equipped with y-strainer. System water supply pressure which trapped in the diaphragm
chamber holds the clapper on seat due to its area differential design.

In Activate Condition:
When the release system operates, pressure is released from the diaphragm chamber
with the speed that is faster than when it is supplied through the setting pipeline. Water
supply pressure forces the clapper off seat allowing water to flow through the outlet and
into the system and alarm devices.

Features Electric Actuation Trim:


Simple configuration for easy maintenance. To actuate the Preaction & deluge valve electrically, the solenoid valve is provided to
