b. The alarm valve must be installed in a readily visible and accessible location
and provision to be made in such a way that alarm line drain is visible and
accessible.

c. Where water pressure fluctuates, the variable pressure trim with retard
chamber must be used. Under non-fluctuating water pressure condition, the
constant pressure trim, which does not include retard chamber, may be used.

d. The valve must be installed with trim in accordance with the trim data. Failure
to follow the appropriate trim connection guidelines may prevent the device
from functioning properly as well as void listing, approval and the
manufacturer’s warranty.

e. Care must be exercised while installing the check valve in the trim to ascertain
that they are located with the arrow mark on the check valve body and pointed
in proper direction.

f. The contraction and expansion associated with an excessive volume of

trapped air could cause the waterway clapper to cycle open and shut. This
may result in false alarm or an intermittent alarm. To avoid these, it is
recommended to have breather valve in the system piping network and a vent
valve at the extreme end of the system to bleed-off the air.

g. The ball valve provided on the alarm line must be kept open and strapped in
set position.

h. Pipe connecting the retard chamber and sprinkler alarm bell must be
supported properly to avoid loading on the retard chamber.

i. All the newly installed system pipes must be flushed properly before alarm
valve is put into service.
7.5.2 Installation of Sprinkler Water Motor Gong

a. Locate and cut a hole through the building wall to accommodate a 20NB
(3/4”) pipe with coupling (galvanized pipe to be supplied by the installer). The
required length of support pipe is equal to the thickness of the wall minus 30
millimeters. The pipe is to be threaded with standard 20NB (3/4”) pipe
threading on both the ends to a length of 20 millimeters. Cut the drive shaft
length, equal to the wall thickness plus 43 millimeters.

b. Insert one end of the drive shaft into the square hole provided in the impeller
of the Sprinkler Alarm gong assembly. One end of 20NB (3/4”) support pipe
is to be screwed to the coupling provided with the assembly and the other
end of the pipe is to be screwed to the housing of the Sprinkler Alarm motor
assembly as shown in the figure. Position this assembly against the building
wall through a washer with the support pipe extending through the wall.

c. Connect the alarm port of the Alarm Valve or Deluge Valve to the inlet of the
Sprinkler Alarm assembly with 20NB (3/4”) pipe, with proper support. A 20NB
(3/4”) strainer is to be provided as close as possible to the Sprinkler Alarm
assembly.

d. Move to the other side of the wall, place protection cover on to the pipe
coupling (screwed to the pipe) and hold against the wall. Insert the bush
(assembly with drive shaft adaptor) into the hole provided in the protection
cover and thereby hand tighten the coupling extending through the wall.
Make sure that the drive shaft is properly fitted in the square hole of impeller
and drive shaft adaptor. This can be ensured by rotating the drive shaft
adaptor. The drive shaft adaptor should rotate without any binding while
tightening the bush. If any binding is noticed then unscrew the bush and refit.
After ensuring that the drive shaft is properly placed in the square holes at
both ends, wrench tight the bush.

e. Place the gong over the gong post with washers as shown in the cross-
sectional drawing and hand tighten the dome nut, rotate the gong until the
lettering is properly originated. Wrench tighten the dome nut.

f. Connect the 25NB (1”) open drain pipe to the motor housing, taking due care
that the drain discharge is running to a safe location and keep it free from
obstruction.

7.5.3 Installation of Pressure Reducing Valve

a. Special Note: For system protection, on valve sizes 1-1/2" thru 8" a minimum
1/2" pressure relief valve is to be installed downstream (system side) of the
Pressure Reducing Valve. Adequate drainage of the relief valve discharge
must be provided. The relief valve should be set above the “no flow” or “dead
end” shutoff pressure which is recommended at 5 to 10 psi higher than the
PRV set pressure for 1-1/2" thru 8" valve sizes and 2 psi for 10" and 12"
valve sizes.

b. Allow sufficient room around the valve assembly to make adjustments and
for disassembly.
c. It is recommended that isolation valves be installed on both ends of the PRV
valve to facilitate isolating the valve for start-up, testing and preventative
maintenance.

BEFORE THE VALVE IS INSTALLED, PIPE LINES SHOULD BE FLUSHED

OF ALL CHIPS, SCALE, AND FOREIGN MATTER.
d. Place the PRV valve in the line with flow through the valve in the direction
indicated on the inlet nameplate mounted on inlet flange or by arrow on
nameplate mounted on side of threaded ends valves. Check all fittings and
hardware for proper makeup and that no apparent dam-age is evident.

e. PRV valves operate with maximum efficiency when mounted in horizontal

piping with the cover UP; however, other positions are accept-able. Due to
size and weight of cover and internal components of six inch and larger
valves, installation with the cover up is advisable. This makes periodic
inspection of internal parts readily accessible.

Start-Up and Adjustment

1. Upon initial start-up and after any valve servicing, it is necessary to follow
these steps.

2. Prior to pressurizing the valve make sure the necessary gauges to

measure pressure are installed. Gauges should be installed upstream
(inlet) and downstream (outlet) of the valve. Unused ports on main valve
body can be used for this purpose.

Caution: During start-up and test procedures a large volume of water

may be discharged downstream. Check to make sure that the down-
stream venting is adequate to prevent damage to personnel and
equipment.

3. Close upstream and downstream isolation valves.

4. Slowly open the upstream isolation valve enough to allow the valve and
pilot control system to fill with liquid.

5. Bleed air from the main valve (1) cover and pilot system by slightly
loosening fittings or plugs at all high points until a steady flow of water is
observed retighten. It may be necessary to do this more than once.

6. Open fully the upstream isolation valve.

7. Slowly open the downstream isolation valve part way to establish a low
flow rate.

There must be liquid flowing through the valve during pressure

adjustments.

Optimum valve performance occurs when pressure setting is done with flow
rate as low as practical.
 8. Adjust the CRD Control (3) to desired pressure. To change pressure set-
ting, turn the adjusting screw in (clockwise) to increase delivery pressure.
Turn the adjusting screw out (counter-clockwise) to decrease delivery
pressure. The pressure should change approximately 27 psi per turn.
Only slight changes in adjustment should be made to avoid damage to
equipment. When the desired setting has been made, tighten jam nut and
replace cover.

9. For 1-1/2" thru 8" Pressure Reducing Valves the downstream pressure
relief control recommended set point is 2-8 psi above the CRD (3) set
point. For 10" and 12" Pressure Reducing Valves the recommended set
point is 2 psi above the CRD (3) set point. The relief valve for the 10" and
12" PRV should be installed a recommended minimum 6 pipe diameters
downstream of the PRV.

NOTE: The “no flow” or “dead end” shutoff pressure will be 5 to 11 psi
above the set pressure.

7.5.4 Installation of Butterfly Valve

a. Examine and confirm that the area is ready for the installation of devices
and equipment.
b. Confirm the valve size and location based on the shop drawings.

c. Fabricate the Pipe to the desired length and the appropriate connection.

d. Place the valve between the grooved pipes. Make sure the grooved and
adjacent pipe work is clean of dirt.

e. Select the rubber coupling size based on the valve size and associated pipe
size as specified on approved shop drawings, so that it can fit the grooved
pipe.

f. Join the valve and the grooved pipe. The grooved pipe must be parallel to
the associated pipeline
