FDV-DE0 –Electrical Actuated with
Local Reset Deluge Valve
Description
This deluge system is based on the
Raphael’s FDV valve, equipped with
Electrical actuated control trim. The
FDV valve installed, have a range of
optional materials and coating to
fulfill operation condition needed, but
the system function principle stays
unchanged: in fire situation, an
electrical detection system trips the
valve’s control trim and
consequently, pressurized water
trapped in the FDV’s control
chamber are drained and the valve
opens.
The trim is equipped with a PSA – a device that enables the local reset of the
system i.e. closing the FDV valve by pressurizing the valve’s control chamber.
This system is suitable for automatic water spray pipelines with open nozzles.
Peripheral accessories in the FDV-DE0 trim

(See detailed data in the Accessories Booklet)
• PSA – Pressure Supply Arrestor (page 43)
• MEU – Manual Emergence Unit (page 56)
• MADV – Manual/Automatic Drain Valve (page 127)

Operation
SET position:
The trim is supplied by the Trim pressure supply valve (6 figure 1), “Y” strainer
(3), flows through the PSA (9), and fills the FDV’s control chamber. Pressurized
water in the valve’s control chamber get trapped by the PSA ball, check-valve (10),
by the solenoid (1) and by the closed emergency valve (MEU) (11), maintaining the
deluge valve in closed position. In case of minor leakage from the FDV’s control
chamber piping, the PSA moves to its compensation state, ensuring the valve
remains close.
FIRE situation:
When one or more of the electric fume/heat sensors is tripped, it energizes the 2
way solenoid (1) through the control panel. Getting tripped, this solenoid drains the
FDV’s control chamber through the PSA’s upper manifold and drain-pipe, to the
atmosphere. The FDV deluge valve opens and water flow into the sprinklers pipe
line/s. The drop of pressure in the PSA’s upper manifold, causes the ball to move to
its upper seal seat, preventing upstream flow from entering the deluge valve control
chamber. By that, the PSA latches the FDV valve in its open position.
Opening the MEU door and pulling down the ball valve’s handle, bypasses all
terms, drains the FDV control chamber and opens the valve immediately.
RESET position
The first step to prepare the valve’s trim for the RESET procedure should be de-
energizing the solenoid.
Then, the PSA push-button should be pressed down. By that, the device ball is
pushed from its seat, enabling the upstream to flow through and fill the FDV’s
control chamber. Consequently, the FDV valve closes and water spray stops. It is
essential to keep pushing the PSA button until the valve’s control chamber became
fully pressurized.
It is recommended to drain the sprinklers pipe line by opening the ball valve
connected to the FDV’s downstream drain port (14 figure 1).

Installation
1. This system is supplied pre-assembled and factory pre-adjusted. Any change
carried out at the system’s trim components order, pipe and tubes length or
ports for axillary connection sizes, will affect the system operation and
therefore, prohibited.
2. The system cannot be installed at a location where it might be subjected to
freezing temperatures.
3. Sufficient room around the system location should kept, to enable
assembly/disassembly and maintenance work.
4. It should be taken by account that water will be drained during regular
maintenance on a routine base, during periodical tests procedures and when
operating in fire situation. Therefore, a drainage plan should be considered.
5. The system described, is to be mounted vertically only. Systems with
identical operation but for horizontal installation are marked with a prefix
“H”, e.g. HFDV-DE0.
6. It is essential that the PSA’s installation orientation will be vertical only,
regardless the deluge valve orientation.
7. The downstream pipe connected to the FDV valve at a horizontal mount
system, is to be supported firmly to prevent the pipeline’s weight to be loaded
on the system’s valve.
8. Any use of pipe/thread reduction-fittings installed at open ports designated
for axillary components, (like water motor alarm, pressure switch, trim
pressure supply, FDV valve’s drains, MADV’s and MEU drain ports), is
prohibited.
9. All connections to water supply, alarms etc. should be done in accordance
with figure 2:
(6) – Water motor alarm connection
(12) – Trim pressure supply connection
10.The FDV valve should be installed with the flow arrow marked on the
valve’s body, in the proper direction.

Commissioning the system - phase 1.
Filling and pressurizing the system
The procedure described should be carried out after system installation completion
and a comprehensive inspection.
(Reference Drawing - figure 2)
1. Make sure the OS&Y (13) is fully closed.
2. Make sure the solenoid is de-energized.
3. Make sure the trim pressure supply ball valve (12) is Closed.
4. Make sure that MEU door (11) is fully closed. If open – turn valve’s lever
upwards and close the door.
5. Make sure the FDV’s downstream drain valve (3) is open and upstream
drain valve (7) is closed.
6. Open the trim pressure supply valve (12).
7. Press the PSA’s push-button (8) and fill the trim piping and FDV’s
control chamber.
8. Open gradually the OS&Y and make sure the downstream drain valve (3)
is not dripping. If a dripping accurse, it might be because of a FDV valve
sealing issue. (see Troubleshooting chapter in FDV’s basic valves
datasheet & IOM bulletin)
9. Close the Downstream drain valve (3).
10. Turn On the electric detection system.
The system is ready for the fire situation simulation.
6
Fire Situation Simulation
The procedure described, should be carried out after the system was pressurized
and a comprehensive leakage inspection was commissioned.
By energizing the solenoid, one can simulate a fire situation and cause the system
to response by opening the FDV deluge valve.
Keep the drain valve (3) closed, unless spray nozzles are not visible.
Notice: The open spray nozzles installed along the spray pipeline will
actually start spraying water!
Where the nature of the protected property is such that water cannot be
discharged for test purposes, refer to NFPA 25
1. Energize the solenoid through the main control panel. The FDV’s control
chamber trapped water will drain out from the solenoid vented pipe.
2. Observe this drain flow: the flow should run for a few second and stop. A
drain flow for an extended period of time or a constant flow can indicate an
internal leakage at the PSA.
3. Notice: When downstream drain valve (3) is open, the water motor alarm
operation might be affected.
7
Resetting & placing in service
The procedure described, should be carried out after any periodic operational test
was simulated or real fire situation.
1. Close the trim pressure supply valve (12).
2. Close the OS&Y valve (13)
3. Clean the trim strainer (4) screen and reassemble.
4. De-energize the solenoid though the main control panel.
5. Open the trim pressure supply valve.
6. Press the PSA’s push-button until the FDV valve closes. Release the push-
button a few seconds after flow stops to assure a complete filling of the
valve’s control chamber.
7. Open the OS&Y valve.
8. Open downstream drain valve (3) and drain the spray pipeline.
9. At drainage end, close the downstream drain valve.
System is in SET state and placed in service.
8

FDV-R-PN2 & FDV-Ra-PN2
Hydraulically operated Pressure
Reducing Valve
Description
This Pressure reduction system is based on the Raphael’s FDV-R or FDV-Ra
angled valves, equipped with a pilot for precise pressure reducing applications in
fluctuating flows. The FDV-R and the FDV-Ra valves installed, has a range of
optional materials and coating to fulfill operation condition needed, but the system
function principle stays unchanged: in flow conditions, the pressure reducing pilot
senses the downstream pressure and keeps it at a steady level by adjusting in real
time.
This system is suitable for water spray pipelines.

Peripheral accessories in the FDV-R- trim
(See detailed data in the Accessories Booklet)
• PRPV – Pressure Reducing Pilot Valve (page 70)
Operation
The PRPV - Pressure Reducing Pilot Valve (figure 1) is adjusted to a set outlet
pressure. When flow occurs, the valve senses the pressure changes at the
downstream and it then regulates.
When the valves downstream pressure rises above the set pressure, water fills the
PRPV’s internal space and apply force onto the pilot’s diaphragm. The seal
assembly moves upwards and restricts partially the water passage through the seal
seat.
Consequently, the control chamber drain flow reduces. Therefore, the pressure
applied onto the valve’s diaphragm, increases. The valve’s flow becomes reduced
and the downstream pressure drops gradually as well.
When the force applied by the downstream pressure becomes balanced with the spring
counter force, the PRPV changes the valve’s flow rate in accordance with the change of
water consumption and keeps the original downstream pressure.

Operation and Maintenance Manual 2018-JAN-10 REV. 01
(Part No. 446213)
This manual is intended as a guide for both the ANSUL®

Vertical Bladder Tanks and Horizontal Bladder Tanks. If there
are any questions, or further information is required, contact
Tyco Fire Protection Products Technical Services.
Those who design, install, operate, refill, inspect, or maintain
these systems should read this entire manual.
NOTICE
This equipment is designed for use on only
Class A and B fires. Proper specification
is required for the hardware and agent (to
include what approvals are required) for each
specific hazard.
Bladder tanks are mechanical devices. They need periodic care.

Inspections provide reasonable assurance that the bladder tank
is full and the system is operable. Inspection should take into
consideration the environment, system use, and user inspection
policy; but as a minimum should be conducted semi-annually.
Maintenance, which provides maximum assurance that the
ANSUL foam concentrate is effective and the system is oper-
able, should be conducted at annual intervals, or earlier when
indicated by an inspection.
This ANSUL systems manual is limited to the uses herein
described. For other applications, contact your local Authorized
ANSUL Distributor, Domestic District Manager, International
Area Manager, or Tyco Fire Protection Products Technical
Services.

in the discharge piping after the first 90 degree bend or
major change in direction between the proportioner and
the containment truck. Note: Spraying or pretreating
the truck tank with a silicone based defoaming agent is
recommended to prevent nuisance foaming in the truck
tank during testing.

SERVICE AND REPAIR

The best assurance against system malfunction is proper operation, recharge, inspection, and maintenance. To remedy, as
quickly as possible, any disorder that may occur, the following table lists some of the probable irregularities that may develop and
gives suggestions for corrective action.
To remedy typical disorders detected through periodic inspection and maintenance examinations:

Bladder Tanks Dents, paint scratches, or abrasions Inspect tank shell to ensure that the wall thickness meets
the minimum specification allowed by ASME (see ASME

This section is for estimating the amount of concentrate NOTICE

To obtain an accurate reading, all water
NOTICE must be drained and all pressure must be
relieved from tank.
Due to the physical properties of most

acceptable for estimating the foam concentrate contained
within the bladder: (1) Using The Sight Gauge or (2) Using A
Dip Stick/Line. Both methods can be used for either vertical or
horizontal tanks. Neither of the methods is exact, but both will
provide a close estimate of the bladder contents.
The measurement tables listed in this guide provide an esti-
mate of the amount of concentrate remaining in the tank after
operation. The approximate quantity of gallons (liters) required
to refill the bladder can be determined by subtracting the table
reading (‘‘Concentrate In Tank’’) from the capacity specified on
the tank nameplate:
Concentrate
Concentrate Required
Tank Capacity – In Tank = To Refill MEASURE
CONCENTRATE GAUGE USE
(gallons (L)) (gallons (L)) (gallons (L)) DEPTH
The percentage of concentrate to be replaced can be deter-

mined by dividing the number of gallons (L) required to refill
the tank by the rated capacity specified on the tank nameplate.
If the percentage of concentrate to be replaced is more than OPERATING
25%, a major refill is required. Otherwise the instructions for a

minor refill may be followed.

lations). The supply calculation is not normally available at
the preliminary system design stage. It is recommended that
a 15% overage be included to compensate for this unknown
factor. The 15% overage is based upon the maximum
variance allowed between the lowest density and highest
density sprinkler within an individual sprinkler zone.
(Part No. 442855)
DETECTION AND ACTUATION REQUIREMENTS

Foam fire suppression systems may require listing or
approved automatic detection devices capable of sensing and
indicating, heat, smoke, and/or flames, as required by local
code and installed to NFPA standards. Automatic detection
devices must use a reliable source of power that meets
NFPA 72. All automatic devices for fire suppression systems
must include a means of immediately signaling an alert in the
event of a detection device failure.
ALARMS AND SIGNALING REQUIREMENTS

HEF systems must include audible alarms that will alert
personnel when the HEF system is operating, as well as when
any supervised component of the system has failed. The
appropriate type and number of alarms must be installed and
must be located where they will be effective.
Alarms must be sounded both before discharge and after HEF
system operation. Alarms that indicate system failure must be
immediate, as well as distinctive from hazard and operational
alarms.
Refer to detection sections of NFPA 11, NFPA 72 and
NFPA 409 for detection systems and actuation devices.
Follow the regulations of the Authority Having Jurisdiction
(AHJ) and relevant insurance underwriters.
FM requires the submission of the alarm detection system for
review and approval on FM-insured locations.
INTERCONNECTION CONSIDERATIONS
Interconnections can be made through the alarm detection
system. Considerations should be given to the requirements
of NFPA 72 and insurance underwriters, based on specific job
requirements and the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Prior to any inspection and maintenance activities, de-energize
and lock-out the system according to site procedures.
HEF generator system should be inspected semi-annually

and should be maintained on a regular schedule by trained or
certified technicians. The HEF generators system water motor
should be checked for free rotation annually and the nozzle
inspected for visible clogging. Fan rotation can be checked by
reaching through the fan guard with a slim screwdriver with a
6-inch or longer blade and rotating the fan. Johnson Controls
recommends the HEF generators system be operated with
water annually to verify full rotation and flow.
The generator motor should be greased as needed (applicable
to JET-X 27 model only) by removing the rear guard screen
and lubricating each of the four grease fittings with approxi-
mately 2 ounces of lithium-based NLGI No. 2 Grease, such as
one of the following suggested grease products:
• Amoco Amolith EP2
• Atlantic Richfield Litholine EP2
• Exxon Ronex MP
• Mobil Oil Mobilith AW2
• Shell Alvania EP2
• Chevron SRI NLGI 2
After greasing, wipe off any grease that has leaked out and
rotate the fan to work in the new grease. Reinstall the guard
screen upon completion.
Refer to the inspection checklist in NFPA 25 for inspection

Discharge Test Recommendations
SYSTEM INSPECTION
Prior to any planned HEF system discharge, it is recom-
mended that the system be inspected for proper installation
and piping continuity. Prior to operating the system, a facility
survey should be conducted to verify that all equipment is
properly installed. A water-only discharge can be conducted
to verify piping continuity and pressures at the risers and

functioning as designed. These system checks will minimize
the risk of erroneous foam test results and help prevent
unintended foam discharge.

OVERHAUL FOLLOWING A FIRE EVENT

The recommendations of NFPA 11 Annex A, A.6.12.10
– A.6.13.3.2, should be followed during overhaul of the
protected area following a fire event.
Failure to follow these recommendations could lead to
re-ignition or resurgence of the original fire, in addition to
increasing the potential for environmental release of foam
and/or unnecessary property damage. As noted in Annex A of
NFPA 11, HEF systems are typically designed with the intent
of rapidly controlling a fire in order to minimize total property
damage from the fire, and not necessarily to extinguish it.
Unless it is known with certainty that there is no fire and
there are no personnel in the protected space, special care
should be taken to ensure that overhaul operations do not
compromise the fire suppression being provided by the foam
blanket.
CLEAN UP AND DISPOSAL FOLLOWING A FIRE EVENT

The cleanup and disposal recommendations in the event
of an accidental discharge, described above, also apply to
discharges following a fire event, with additional attention
given to fuel contamination. A discharge in a fire situation
may produce wastewater contaminated with fuel that must
be disposed of properly. Care should be taken to ensure that
wastewater is free of fuel contamination prior to discharge.
