Double Interlock Pre-action Deluge Valves FP 400Y - 7BM

Pre - Action & Dry Pipe Water/Foam

The BERMAD Model FP 400Y 7BM is an elastomeric, hydraulic, line pressure operated deluge valve, designed for advanced fire protection systems and the latest industry standards. The Double Interlock Pre-action release system is suitable for use in systems requiring that water be kept out of the sprinkler piping until two detecting systems have been simultaneously activated. Model FP 400Y-7BM pre action double interlock is activated by two simultaneous electric signals fed to a cross zone releasing panel. Once open the deluge valve latches open until locally reset. An anti-flooding feature is provided by using an in-line check valve, which creates an intermediate vented chamber using a Normally Open drip-check. As an option the 400Y 7BM features a visual quarter turn valve position indicator, available with limit switches for remote valve position monitoring.
