DV-5A Automatic Water Control Valve
Remote-Resetting Deluge Fire Protection Systems
1-1/2 Inch to 8 Inch (DN40 to DN200)
General
Description
The TYCO DV-5A Automatic Water
Control Valves are diaphragm type
valves that can be used in remoteresetting deluge fire protection
systems. When properly trimmed, the
DV-5A Valve with Remote-Resetting
Trim can be opened and closed during
a full-flow condition from a remote
location. Key features are as follows:
• Remote-resetting feature provides
the ability to reset the valve from one
or more locations.
• Compact, space-saving design
reduces valve room footprint and
construction costs.
• Electric actuation is compatible with
many types of automatic and manual
release options.
• Actuation of fire alarms upon system
operation is provided.
The DV-5a Valves are offered with the
DV-5a Valve and separately ordered
semi-assembled trim shown in Figure
6, or, for ease of installation, with the
DV-5a Valve completely trimmed with or
without a System Main Control Valve.
The diaphragm style design of the
DV-5A Valve allows external resetting,
providing for easy resetting of a deluge
system without having to open a valve
handhole cover to manually reposition
a clapper and/or latch mechanism.
Simply re-pressurizing the diaphragm
chamber resets the valve.
Operation of the DV-5A Valve with
Remote-Resetting Trim is provided by
an automatic electric detection system
or remote manual electric activation.
The easily installed trim configuration for the DV-5A Valve with RemoteResetting Trim provides for emergency
(manual) release of the valve at the
valve location.

Design
Criteria
The following items must be considered and applied accordingly for T YCO
DV-5A Valve with Remote-Resetting
Trim installations.
NOTICE
The owner is responsible to design into
the system a releasing circuit such that
a Solenoid Valve is properly configured
to enable remote resetting.
The building owner must be informed
of the capabilities and limitations of
a remote-resetting system as it pertains to the possibility of an inadvertent remote closing of the DV-5A Valve
during a fire condition. Therefore, personnel responsible for the fire protection system must be fully trained
on system components and required
actions in the case of an alarm.
The Control Panel, Detectors, and Pull
Stations are to be installed in accordance with their laboratory listings and

Operation
The TYCO DV-5a Valve is a diaphragm
style valve that depends upon water
pressure in the Diaphragm Chamber
(Ref. Figure 2A) to hold the Diaphragm
closed against the water supply
pressure.
When the DV-5A Valve with RemoteResetting Trim is set for service, the
Diaphragm Chamber is pressurized
through the trim connections from the
inlet side of the system’s main control
valve.
With reference to Figure 4, initial activation of the Solenoid Valve due to
noid Valve. Opening of the Solenoid
Valve in the Remote-Resetting Trim
releases water from the Diaphragm
Chamber faster than it can be replenished through the Restriction in the
Diaphragm Chamber Supply Connection provided in the trim. This release
results in a rapid pressure drop in the
Diaphragm Chamber, and the force
differential applied through the Diaphragm that holds it in the set position
is reduced below the valve trip point.
The water supply pressure then forces
the Diaphragm open, permitting water
to flow into the system piping, as well
as through the Alarm Port to actuate
system alarms.

To remotely reset the DV-5aValve,
the voltage to the Solenoid Valve
must be transferred to the appropriate terminals of the Solenoid Valve
(Ref. Figure 5) resulting in the latched
closure of the Solenoid Valve. Closing
of the Solenoid Valve in the RemoteResetting Trim permits the Diaphragm
Chamber to repressurize. This repressurizing results in a pressure increase
in the Diaphragm Chamber. The resulting force repressurizes the Diaphragm
Chamber, closing the valve and stopping the flow of water into the system
piping.
Note the voltage and current type as specified on the rating plate. The connection terminals in the device socket are identified with the numbers 1 to 3
according to the terminals on the valve.

Installation
The TYCO DV-5a Valve is to be installed
in accordance with this section.
NOTICE
Proper operation of the DV-5a Valves
depends upon their trim being installed
in accordance with the instructions
given in this technical data sheet.
Failure to follow the appropriate trim
diagram may prevent the DV-5a Valve
from functioning properly, as well as
void approvals and the manufacturer’s
warranties.
The DV-5a Valve must be installed in a
readily visible and accessible location.
The DV-5a Valve and associated trim
must be maintained at a minimum temperature of 40°F (4°C).
Heat tracing of the DV-5a Valve or its
associated trim is not permitted. Heat
tracing can result in the formation of
hardened mineral deposits that are
capable of preventing proper operation.
The DV-5a Valve is to be installed in
accordance with the following criteria:
Step 1. All nipples, fittings, and devices
must be clean and free of scale and
burrs before installation. Use pipe
thread sealant sparingly on male pipe
threads only.
Step 2. The DV-5a Valve must be
trimmed in accordance with Figure 6.
Note: If the addition of an Alarm Control
Valve is desired or required by the local
AHJ, the Alarm Control Valve noted as
Item H in Figure 9 is to be a separately
ordered electronically supervised normally open valve.
Step 3. Care must be taken to ensure
that check valves, strainers, globe
valves, etc. are installed with the flow
arrows in the proper direction.
Step 4. Drain tubing to the Drip Funnel
must be installed with smooth bends
that will not restrict flow.
Step 5. The Main Drain and Drip Funnel
Drain may be interconnected provided
a check valve is located at least 12 in.
(300 mm) below the Drip Funnel.
Step 6. Suitable provision must be
made for disposal of drain water. Drainage water must be directed such that
it will not cause accidental damage to
property or danger to persons.
Ste p 7. Connect the Diaphragm Supply
Valve to the inlet side of the System
Main Control Valve in order to facilitate setting of the DV-5a Valve. Refer
to Figure 9.
NOTICE
The connection to the Diaphragm
Supply Valve should be as short as
practical and from the same water
supply as the system.
Step 8. Unused Pressure Alarm Switch
connection must be plugged.
Step 9. Conduit and electrical connections are to be made in accordance
with the applicable standards of the
approval agency.
Step 10. Before a system hydrostatic
test is performed, the DV-5a Diaphragm
Chamber is to be depressurized, the
Automatic Drain Valve is to be temporarily replaced with a plug, and the
Diaphragm Cover Bolts must be uniformly and securely tightened using a
cross-draw sequence. After tightening, double-check to make certain that
all of the Diaphragm Cover Bolts are
securely tightened. Refer to Table B in
the Care and Maintenance section for
torque specifications.

Valve Setting
Procedure
Perform Steps 1 through 13 when initially setting the TYCO DV-5A Valve with
Remote-Resetting Trim for service or
after an operational test of the fire protection system ( Ref. Figure 9).
Step 1. Close the System Main Control
Valve (B).
Step 2. Close the Diaphragm Supply
Valve (P).
Step 3. Open the Main Drain Valve
(D) and System Drain Valve (E). Close
the System Drain Valve (E) after water
ceases to discharge. Leave the Main
Drain Valve (D) open.
At this time make certain that the
Pressure Gauge Valves and the Alarm
Control Valve (H), as applicable, are
open.
Step 4. Depress the plunger of the
Automatic Drain Valve (F) to verify that
it is open.
Step 5. Clean the Diaphragm Supply
Strainer (Q) by removing the cleanout plug and strainer basket. The Diaphragm Supply Strainer (Q) may be
flushed out by momentarily opening
the Diaphragm Supply Valve (P).
Step 6. Reset the electric detection
system in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions to de-energize
the solenoid valve.
Ste p 7. Operate (open) the Manual
Control Station (M) and then open
the Diaphragm Supply Valve (P). After
unaerated water ceases to discharge
from the Manual Control Station (M)
drain tube, slowly close the operating
lever by pushing it up. Do not close the
hinged cover at this time.
Step 8. Inspect drain connections from
the Manual Control Station and Solenoid Valve. Before proceeding to the
next step, correct any leaks.
Step 9. Verify the ability for the DV-5A
Diaphragm to hold pressure as follows:
• With the diaphragm chamber pressurized per Step 7, temporarily close
the Diaphragm Supply Valve (P), and
then observe the Diaphragm Gauge
(K) for a drop in pressure.
• If a drop in pressure is noted, the
DV-5A Diaphragm is to be replaced
and/or any leaks must be corrected
before proceeding to the next step.
• If the Diaphragm Gauge (K) indicates
no drop in pressure, re-open the Diaphragm Supply Valve (P) and proceed to the next step.
Step 10. Partially open the System
Main Control Valve (B). Slowly close the
Main Drain Valve (D) as soon as water
discharges from the Main Drain Valve
(D). Observe the Automatic Drain Valve
(F) for leaks. If there are leaks, determine/correct the cause of the leakage
problem before proceeding.
NOTICE
When the System Main Control Valve
(B) is partially opened, the pressure on
the DV-5A Diaphragm Chamber may
increase. This increase in pressure is
normal, and if the pressure is greater
than the valve trim maximum pressure
rating provided in the Technical Data
section, the pressure is to be relieved
to at least the valve trim pressure rating
by partially and temporarily opening the
Manual Control Station (M); however,
do not allow the pressure as indicated
on the Diaphragm Gauge (K) to drop
below the supply pressure shown on
the Water Supply Gauge (J), since
this action may result in tripping of the
DV-5A Valve.
Step 11. Close the hinged cover of the
Manual Control Station Valve (M) and
insert a new break rod in the small hole
through the top of the enclosing box.
Step 12. Fully open the System Main
Control Valve (B).
Step 13. After setting a fire protection system, notify the proper authorities and advise those responsible for
monitoring proprietary and/or central
station alarms.

Care and
Maintenance
The following procedures and inspections must be performed as indicated,
in addition to any specific requirements of the NFPA and any applicable
standards recognized by the Approval
agency. Any impairment must be immediately corrected (Ref. Figure 9).
NOTICE
The frequency at which the following
procedures and inspections are to be
performed are to be in accordance with
the NFPA and any applicable specific
requirements of the standards recognized by the Approval agency.
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance
work on the fire protection system that
it controls, permission to shut down
the affected fire protection systems
must first be obtained from the proper
authorities and all personnel who may
be affected by this action must be
notified.
The owner is responsible for the
inspection, testing, and maintenance
of their fire protection system and
devices in compliance with this document, as well as with the NFPA and any
applicable standards recognized by the
Approval agency. Contact the installing contractor or product manufacturer
with any questions.
Some procedures in this section result
in the operation of the associated
alarms. Notify the owner and the fire
department, central station, or other
signal station to which the alarms are
connected before performing the tests.
It is recommended that automatic
sprinkler systems be inspected, tested,
and maintained by a qualified Inspection Service in accordance with the
NFPA and any applicable standards
recognized by the Approval agency.
Drop in Water Supply Pressure
Below Normal Range
NOTICE
If the water supply pressure is significantly reduced below the normally
expected static pressure range (as
could occur in the case of a water main
break or repair), and there is a subsequent drop in the diaphragm chamber
water pressure below its normal range
(for example, due to a leak in a piping
connection to or from the diaphragm
chamber or, a leak in the diaphragm
chamber check valve caused by dirt or
debris in the check valve seal area), a
deluge valve such as the DV-5A could
inadvertently trip, if its water supply
pressure is quickly restored.
A drop in the water supply pressure
to below its normal range (as in the
case of an interrupted water supply
condition) constitutes an emergency
impairment.
Should this condition occur, immediately close the main control valve and
use the following procedure to reset the
system:
Step 1. Prior to the water supply pressure being restored to the closed main
control valve, note the pressure indicated by the diaphragm chamber
pressure gauge and determine if
the pressure is within the normally
expected range.
Step 2. If the diaphragm chamber pressure is below the normal range, check
for and correct any source of leakage
from the diaphragm chamber prior to
resetting the system.
Step 3. After the water supply pressure is restored to the main control
valve, reset the DV-5A Valve in accordance with the Valve Setting Procedure
section.
NOTICE
For fire protection systems subject to
an emergency impairment caused by
an interrupted water supply condition,
it is recommended that consideration
be given to installing a low water supply
pressure switch with the appropriate
alarm/indications to monitor the water
supply pressure.
Waterflow Alarm Test Procedure
To test the waterflow alarm, open the
Alarm Test Valve (G), which will allow a
flow of water to the Waterflow Pressure
Switch (C) and/or Water Motor Alarm.
Upon satisfactory completion of the
test, close the Alarm Test Valve (G).
To ensure drainage of the alarm line,
depress the plunger on the Automatic
Drain Valve (F).
Electric Actuation
Operation Test Procedure
Proper operation of the DV-5A Valve
(i.e., opening of the DV-5A Valve as
during a fire condition) must be verified as follows:
Step 1. If water must be prevented
from flowing beyond the riser, perform
the following steps.
• Close System Main Control Valve (B).
Open Main Drain Valve (D).
• Open System Main Control Valve (B)
one turn beyond position at which
water just begins to flow from Main
Drain Valve (D).
• Slowly close the Main Drain Valve
(D).
Step 2. Test the deluge releasing panel
in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions to energize the solenoid
valve.
Note: Be prepared to quickly perform
Steps 3, 4, and 5 if water must be prevented from flowing beyond the riser.
Step 3. Verify that the DV-5A Valve has
tripped, as indicated by the flow of
water into the system.
Step 4. Close the System Main Control
Valve (B).
Step 5. Close the Diaphragm Supply
Valve (P).
Step 6. Reset the DV-5A Valve in accor-
dance with the Valve Setting Procedure.
Electric Actuation
Solenoid Valve (N) Test Procedure
Proper operation of the Solenoid Valve
(N) for electric actuation must be verified at as follows:
Step 1. Close the System Main Control
Valve (B).
Step 2. Open the Main Drain Valve (D).
Step 3. Test the deluge releasing panel
in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions to energize the Solenoid
Valve (N).
Step 4. Verify that there is a flow of
water from the Solenoid Valve (N) drain
connection.
Step 5. Verify that the Diaphragm
Chamber pressure has decreased
to below 25% of the water supply
pressure.
Step 6. Reset the electric detection
system in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions to de-energize
the Solenoid Valve (N), and proceed
as follows:
• Water should cease draining from the
Solenoid Valve (N).
• Pressure will then build up in the
DV-5A Diaphragm Chamber.
• After system pressure is restored
in the DV-5A Diaphragm Chamber,
inspect the Solenoid Valve (N) for
leaks at the drain tube. Any leaks
must be corrected before proceeding to the next step.
Ste p 7. Partially open the System Main
Control Valve (B). Slowly close the Main
Drain Valve (D) as soon as water discharges from the Main Drain Valve (D ).
Observe the Automatic Drain Valve
(F) for leaks. If there are leaks, determine/correct the cause of the leakage
problem. If there are no leaks, the
DV-5A Valve is ready to be placed in
service and the System Main Control
Valve (B) must then be fully opened.

Internal Valve Inspection
Once every five years during the annual
operational test procedure and prior
to the DV-5a Valve being reset and
with the DV-5a Valve de-pressurized,
the interior of the DV-5aValve must
be cleaned and inspected for wear
and damage. Damaged or worn parts
must be replaced. (Replacement of the
Diaphragm every ten years is recommended, or more frequently if inspections and/or wear and tear warrant
more frequent replacement.)
NOTICE
The Diaphragm Cover may be removed
between Steps 4 and 5 of the resetting instructions, since at that point the
DV-5a Valve should be de-pressurized
as evident by a zero gauge reading on
the Diaphragm Gauge (K) and Water
Supply Gauge (J), as well as no water
discharging from the Automatic Drain
Valve (F).
To perform internal valve inspection
between Steps 4 and 5 of the Valve
Setting Procedure, remove the diaphragm cover as follows:
Step 1. Remove the Copper Tube
Fitting between the Diaphragm Supply
(P) and the System Main Control Valve
(B).
Step 2. Loosen the union securing the
Solenoid Valve (N).
Step 3. Loosen and remove the union
between the Diaphragm Cover and the
trim and remove the trim.
Step 4. Remove the Diaphragm Valve
Cover hardware, then slowly remove
the Diaphragm Cover and perform
internal valve inspection. Clean the
valve interior and replace parts as
ne ce ssar y.
After cleaning and inspecting valve
interior, and replacing parts as necessary, reinstall the Diaphragm Cover
by completing the following steps to
assure the Diaphragm Cover Fasteners
are uniformly and securely tightened.
Step 1. With reference to Figure 1,
ensure that the Diaphragm is properly
oriented and that the proper hardware
arrangement is utilized when assembling the Diaphragm Covers. The hardware arrangements differ depending on
the size of the DV-5a Valve.
Step 2. By first using the Long Hex
Bolts, support of the Diaphragm Cover
will be provided before installing the
Short Hex Bolts. Align Diaphragm in
proper orientation with Valve Body, and
then align Diaphragm Cover in proper
orientation with Valve Body. Handtighten all fasteners.
Step 3. Using crossdraw sequence
to assure uniformity, wrench-tighten
Long Hex Bolts and Short Hex Bolts
to appropriate torque values. Repeat
crossdraw sequence two to three
times at incremental torque valves
until reaching the torque valves found
in Table B.
Step 4. Inspect to assure all Hex Bolts
are securely tightened.
Step 5. Using the union, the trim to the
Diaphragm Cover.
Step 6. Using the union, secure the
solenoid Valve (N).
Ste p 7. Replace the Copper Tube
Fitting between the Diaphragm Supply
Valve (P) and the System Main Control
Valve (B).
Step 8. Ensure that the unions and flare
fittings are securely tightened.
Step 9. Proceed to step 5 of the Valve
Setting Procedures section in this data
sheet.
NOTICE
If the water supply contains chemicals
which tend to attack a polyester fabricreinforced, EPDM rubber or the five
year inspection indicates a build-up of
debris within the DV-5A Valve that could
affect its proper operation, then the
frequency of the internal valve inspection procedure must be appropriately
increased.
With reference to Figure 1, make
certain that the Diaphragm is correctly
oriented; otherwise, the DV-5A Valve
cannot be properly set.
Under-tightening the Diaphragm Cover
Bolts can result in internal and external
leakage.
Use only TYCO replacement fasteners
as specified in Figure 1.
Do not apply adhesives, lubricants, or
other substances to the Diaphragm or
Valve Bod y.
