The Model F470 Multimatic Deluge


WATER SUPPLY
Valve is a differential latch type valve
which depends upon water pressure in
the Diaphragm Chamber (Ref. Figure - Set Position -
C-l) to hold the Clapper closed Figure C-l
against the water supply pressure. The
nominal trip ratio is 2.5 to 1, i.e., the TO SYSTEM
F470 Valve operates (opens) when the
pressure in the Diaphragm Chamber is
reduced to approximately 40 percent
of the water supply pressure.

When the F470 Valve is set for service,


the Diaphragm Chamber is pressur-
ized through the trim connections from
the inlet side of the systems main con-
trol valve, for example an O.S.&Y. gate
valve or butterfly valve (Ref. Figure UP
G-l, G-2, or G-3). Opening of an actu-
ation device, for example the solenoid

Before starting the fill procedure, attach the following:
a. 3/4" clear, flexible hose to valve no. 4 and terminate in a 55 gallon (200 liter) barrel

b. Water source to valve no. 6 (garden hose).

Refer to the appropriate concentrate schematic for valve description.

Step 1: Close all valves except No.s 4, 5, 6, and 7, and fill line master shut-off Valve
No. 9, WHICH MUST BE OPEN.
Step 2: Fill the shell with water through Valve No. 6 (do not exceed 25 PSIG water
pressure) until a steady full flow occurs from Valve No. 4. DO NOT CLOSE
VALVE NO. 4 WITH LINE WATER PRESSURE ON VALVE NO. 6. CLOSE
VALVE NO. 6, THEN CLOSE VALVE NO. 4.

Step 3: Check for water at Valve No. 7. If water has appeared, and if water flow
continues, consult the CCS supplier before proceeding. If no water appears,
proceed to next step.

Step 4: Close Valve No. 7.

Step 5: Connect air source to Valve No. 5 (see Figure No. 1 and Figure No. 4) and fill
bladder with air (10 PSI maximum) through Valve No. 5 while displacing water
through Valve No. 4. Continue until 25% of the water volume (10% for a
horizontal unit) has been displaced.

Water volume is to be measured with the 55 gallon (200 liter) drum.


Step 6: When the required water volume has been displaced, close 1/4" shut-off valve
on the regulator to trap air inside the bladder, disconnect the air supply, and
close Valve No. 4.* Remove the air regulator.
A 10 PSI (0.7 BAR) air bubble has now been formed within the bladder. This lifts
the excess bladder material off the bottom of the vessel, allowing for uniform
expansion of the bladder as the concentrate is pumped in.
Step 7: Prime and connect the concentrate pumping apparatus (see Figure No. 2 and 4)
and to Valve No. 7, as shown above. Use a Centrifugal Pump or Pneumatic
Operated Diaphragm Pump.
Step 8: Remove the water hose from the 55 gallon (200 liter) drum, and terminate to drain.

Step 9: Start the concentrate pump, open Valve No. 4, then Valve No. 7, pumping
concentrate into bladder.
*If Valve No. 4 is left open at this point, water will continue to flow out, reducing
the pressure in the bladder.

The concentrate displaces the shell water. If tank pressure steadily decreases, it will be
necessary to partially close Valve No. 4 to slow down the discharge of water. If tank
pressure steadily increases, it will be necessary to partially (or fully) open Valve No. 4 to
allow the pressure to drop back to 10 PSI (0.7 BAR). Slowing the pump discharge will also
lower the tank pressure.
When approximately 75% of the nominal charge has been attained, (90% for horizontal
tanks), shell water will stop flowing and the tank pressure will begin to exceed 10 PSI (0.7
BAR).
Step 10: Partially open 1/4" shut off at Valve No. 5 to vent and slowly allow air pressure to
drop to 0 PSI while continuing to pump the concentrate to the rated capacity.
IMPORTANT: IF CONCENTRATE OVERFLOWS FROM VALVE NO. 5, DRAIN BACK
SEVERAL GALLONS TO ALLOW FOR EXPANSION OF AGENT. FILL ONLY TO RATED
CAPACITY! OVERFILLING MAY DAMAGE THE BLADDER!

Step 11: Close Valve No. 7, shut off the pump, and remove 1/4" valve and gauge
assemble from Valve No. 5.
SIGHT GAUGE PROCEDURE
Step 12: Open Valves No. 3 and No. 9, and allow sight gauge to fill. Mark level for future
reference. Close sight gauge valves No. 3 and No. 9 and drain concentrate from
tube by opening valves No. 7 and No. 3. (Note: Make sure all pressure is vented
off from valves 4 & 5 before opening sight gauge valve No. 3). After concentrate
is completely drained, close valve No.s 3 and 7.

SHELL WATER REFILL


TECHNICAL DATA PROCEDURE

SHELL WATER REFILL PROCEDURE

The installed bladder tank will be either normally pressurized or non-pressurized, depending
upon the type of system (wet or deluge), and the piping design. If pressurized, refer to Steps
13-18; if non pressurized, refer to Steps 13 and 19-21.
NOTE: IN MOST INSTALLATIONS, THE PIPING DESIGN REQUIRES THE TANK TO
BE NORMALLY PRESSURIZED. IF SO, FOLLOW STEPS 13-18. SHOULD THERE BE
QUESTIONS CONCERNING WHEN OR HOW TO PRESSURIZE THE TANK, CONTACT
THE DESIGN ENGINEER OR VIKING.

SHELL WATER REFILL


TECHNICAL DATA PROCEDURE

NORMALLY PRESSURIZED

Step 14: Close all valves except for No. 4 and No. 5.

Step 15: Open Valve No. 6 (allowing water into the shell) until water overflows from Valve
No. 4 and concentrate overflows from Valve No. 5. Close Valve No.s 4, 5, and 6.
Step 16: Carefully and partially open Valve No. 2 to allow water from the main supply to
enter tank and equalize to line pressure. When pressurized, open valve to full.
VERIFY AUTOMATIC VALVE NO. 8 IS CLOSED!

Step 17: Open Valve No. 1. Place all valves in normal position. Install all lock pins in
proper locations (refer to "Valve Descriptions" on page V830d)
Step 18: Inspect for piping leaks and correct, as necessary.

NORMALLY UN-PRESSURIZED

Step 19: Close all valves except for Valve No.s 4 and 5.
Step 20: Open Valve No. 6 (allowing water into shell) until water overflows from Valve
No. 4. Close Valve No. 6, then Valve No.s 4 and 5.
VERIFY AUTOMATIC VALVE NO. 8 IS CLOSED (IF VALVE NO. 8 IS USED)!
Step 21: Open Valve No.s 1 and 2.*

*There should be no water pressure on the tank. Lock all valves in proper locations (refer
to "Valve Descriptions" on page V850f).

CONCENTRATE LEVEL
TECHNICAL DATA CHECK

CONCENTRATE LEVEL CHECK


AFFF LEVEL CHECK (Refer to Schematic on Page V830d)

Step 1: Close Valve No.s 1 and 2 to isolate tank.


Step 2: Attach a hose to Valve No. 6 and terminate to drain. Be aware that the tank may
be under pressure.

Step 3: Open Valve No. 6 carefully to relieve pressure. Once pressure is relieved, fully
open Valve No. 6, draining water from the shell, then slowly vent Valve No.s 4
and 5.
Step 4: After the water has completely stopped draining, open Valve No.s 3 and No. 9.
Observe sight gauge level (Figure 7).
a. If the level is normal, follow the "Shell Water Refill Procedure" on page V830l.
.
b. If the level is below normal, add concentrate (per the "Refill Procedure" on page V830l),
to the desired level. Again, follow the "Shell Water Refill Procedure" on page V830l.

c. Close Valve No.s 3 and 9. Drain concentrate from the level gauge by closing Valve
No. 9 and open slowly Valves No. 7 and No. 3.

Step 5: After concentrate is completely drained, close valve No.s 3 and 7.


ATC CONCENTRATE LEVEL CHECK (Refer to Schematic on Page V851f)

Steps 1-3: The same as above.

Step 4: When water has completely stopped draining,


open Valve No.s 9 and 3. Observe the sight
gauge level (because of the thick viscosity of ATC,
allow time for level to rise).
Step 5: Repeat (a) and (b), as above.
d: Drain concentrate from the level gauge by closing
Valve No. 9, then slowly open Valve No.s 7 and 3 (Figure 7). 3

7
Step 6: After concentrate is completely drained, close Valve
No.s 3 and 7. Figure 7

NOTE: BECAUSE OF THE THICK VISCOSITY OF ATC FOAM, THE SIGHT GLASS MAY NOT ACCU-
RATELY MEASURE THE LEVEL. TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF CONCENTRATE INSIDE THE UNIT,
CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE ON "CONCENTRATE LEVEL CHECK," BUT MEASURE THE
AMOUNT OF WATER DRAINED FROM THE SHELL.

EXAMPLE: THE DESIGNED CAPACITY OF A 6000 HORIZONTAL UNIT IS 6000 LITERS, THE ACTUAL
CAPACITY IS 6300 LITERS. IF 600 LITERS OF WATER IS DRAINED FROM THE SHELL, 5700 LITERS
OF CONCENTRATE REMAIN. CONSULT VIKING FOR ACTUAL CAPACITIES OF TANKS.
