Pneumatic Actuation Deluge Valve

The Inbal Deluge Valve with Pneumatic Actuation Trim is specifically designed for fire protection systems actuated by a fire detection and release system of dry pilot sprinklers and/or pneumatic remote control.

The Inbal Automatic Water Control Valve used in this deluge system is a pressure operated, sleeve actuated, axial valve designed for use in fire protection systems. The Inbal Pneumatically actuated Deluge Valve is used for automatic or manual operation. The dry pilot line, which is pressurized with compressed air or nitrogen, functions as a thermal detector equipped with a fixed temperature release.

When one or more of the sprinkler heads located on the pilot line fuses, or when a manual release station is operated locally or remotely, the Inbal Deluge Valve opens and water flows from all open sprinklers and/or nozzles on the system. As soon as the releasing system and the sprinkler piping are reset, the Inbal Deluge Valve resetting is merely done by activating the reset knob. The control trim includes all the pilot valves, actuators, accessories, fittings, and gauges to provide for proper operation in either vertical or horizontal installation.

The standard material Inbal Deluge Valve is rated to 300 psi (21 bar) and is available in sizes 1½” (40 mm) to 12″ (300 mm). The valves have threaded, flanged, grooved, or wafer inlet and outlet ends. The only moving part in the Inbal Deluge Valve, when it operates, is the reinforced sleeve, which forms a driptight seal with the corrosion resistant core. It has a smooth opening to prevent any water hammer in the piping system.

The unique design and variety of materials and coatings make the Inbal Deluge Valve ideally suitable for use with brackish or sea water, similar to those found in chemical and petrochemical facilities or in offshore platforms.
