Alarm, Deluge and Sprinkler Control Valves in Bhopal

Alarm, deluge, preaction and dry pipe valves sit at the head of a sprinkler or water spray system: they hold the water back until a sprinkler opens or the detection system calls for it, then let it flow and raise the alarm, helped by trim, water motor gongs, test and drain valves, and flow and supervisory switches. FPS supplies these valves and accessories from Tyco, HD Fire, New Age and System Sensor in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh.

How to choose

First match the valve to the system. A wet pipe sprinkler system, with water in the pipes at all times, uses an alarm (alarm check) valve: the HD Fire Model H in 80 to 200 NB, the New Age alarm check valve in 4 and 6 inch, or the Tyco AV-1-300 in DN65 to DN200. A deluge system with open nozzles or sprinklers, such as transformer spray or foam protection, uses a deluge valve that opens on a detection signal: HD Fire Models A, H2, H3 and H5 in 50 to 200 mm, the Tyco DV-5A in DN40 to DN200 or the Tyco SV-1 in DN80 to DN200. Where the pipes must stay dry, the Tyco DPV-1 dry pipe valve (DN65 to DN150) opens when a sprinkler releases the air, and preaction valves keep water out of the pipes until detection operates.

Next choose how the valve is released. Deluge and preaction valves can be tripped by a wet pilot line, a dry pilot line of air or nitrogen, or an electric signal from a releasing panel, and Tyco lists a separate DV-5A trim for each, plus remote-resetting and pressure-reducing versions. Single interlock preaction opens on detection alone, while double interlock (electric/electric or electric/pneumatic) needs both detection and an opened sprinkler, for refrigerated spaces and other areas where accidental flooding of the pipes must be avoided. HD Fire builds both types on its H3 deluge valve and CH check valve in 50 to 200 NB, and Tyco offers DV-5A preaction trims and EN 12845 Preaction Type A (DV-5A) and Type B (DPV-1) valves.

Then check body material, pressure and how much comes assembled. HD Fire deluge valves come in cast iron (Model A, 175 psi), cast steel WCB (H2), ductile iron (H3) or nickel aluminium bronze for sea water (H5). Tyco DV-5A valves are epoxy coated ductile iron for corrosive and outdoor sites with a working pressure of 20 to 300 psi, the AV-1-300 alarm valve is rated 300 psi, and the European Conformity editions of the DPV-1 and WMA-1 are rated 16 bar. To cut site work, HD Fire offers factory tested DSK deluge skids, D-PACK deluge cabinets, multi-line skids for up to 8 valves and Pre-Pack preaction cabinets, and Tyco offers pre-assembled, pre-wired DV-5A Red-E Cabinets for deluge or preaction.

Finally list the trim and monitoring. An alarm valve needs an alarm device: a water motor gong (HD Fire, Tyco WMA-1) gives an outdoor hydraulic alarm, and a retard chamber (HD Fire 3.8 litre, Tyco RC-1) stops false alarms where the supply pressure varies. For each floor or zone, HD Fire zone control manifolds, Tyco RM-2 riser manifolds and HD Fire or Tyco TD-2 test and drain valves let you test flow and drain the pipes, while System Sensor WFD and WFDT waterflow detectors and PIB-V2 and OSY2 supervisory switches tell the fire alarm panel when water flows or a control valve leaves its open position. Dry pipe and preaction systems also need an air supply, kept steady by Tyco AMD-1, AMD-2 or AMD-3 devices, the HD Fire PMD-1 or a Tyco supervisory air compressor.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an alarm valve and a deluge valve?
An alarm valve sits on a wet sprinkler system with closed sprinklers: it holds water in the pipes, stops back flow and sounds the alarm when a sprinkler opens. A deluge valve feeds open nozzles or sprinklers and stays shut until the detection system or a pilot line trips it, then sends water to every nozzle on that zone at once.
What is a preaction system, and when is double interlock used?
A preaction system keeps the sprinkler pipes dry, normally under low air pressure, and lets water in only when the detection system operates. Double interlock needs both detection and an opened sprinkler before water enters the pipes, so it suits refrigerated spaces and other areas where accidental flooding must be avoided.
Why does an alarm valve need a retard chamber?
Where the water supply pressure surges or varies, the clapper can lift briefly and ring the alarm with no fire. A retard chamber, such as the HD Fire stainless steel chamber or the Tyco RC-1, holds back that small flow so that only a steady flow sounds the alarm.
What valve sizes are available?
HD Fire deluge valves and skids come in 50 to 200 mm and its alarm valve in 80 to 200 NB, while Tyco DV-5A deluge and preaction valves come in DN40 to DN200 and the AV-1-300 alarm valve in DN65 to DN200. The New Age alarm check valve comes in 4 and 6 inch, and Tyco RM-2 base riser manifolds go down to DN32 for smaller systems.
How does the fire alarm panel know that a sprinkler has operated?
A waterflow detector or flow switch on the riser, such as the System Sensor WFD series for 2 to 8 inch steel pipe, signals the panel when water flows. Pressure switches on the valve trim and supervisory switches on the control valves add alarm and tamper signals.
Does FPS supply and install these valves, and how do I get a price?
FPS supplies, installs and maintains alarm, deluge and preaction valve sets with their trim in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh. Prices depend on the valve type, size and trim, so they are on request: call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060.
