Description
The Pressure Switch is of three pole double throw type and is activated by the FM-200TM pressure in the system piping at the time of system discharge. It is used to signal the fire control panel that discharge is occurring so that the panel will perform its assigned shutdown/interlock functions in the event of manual mechanical release of the system. It can also be used to perform shutdown/interlock functions directly, if desired. Actuating pressure is obtained from the outlet of a tee located anywhere in the discharge piping. Connection from the tee to the pressure switch can be made with ¼ inch O.D. copper tubing and tubing fittings or with 1/8 or ¼ inch schedule 40 pipe and 300 pound class malleable iron or ductile iron fittings. The maximum length of connecting tubing or pipe is 100 feet.
Architect Specifications
A Pressure Switch shall be provided to operate upon actual discharge of FM- 200TM into the system piping. The pressure switch shall be so connected with the fire control panel that the panel will perform its assigned shutdown/interlock functions in the event of manual mechanical release of the system.
