Diaphragm valve FP-400E-3D

electrically-operatedshut-offregulating

Product Overview
The BERMAD model FP-400E-3D is an elastomeric, hydraulic line pressure operated deluge valve designed for advanced fire-protection systems. It is actuated by a 3-way solenoid valve for electrical fire detection systems and can be supplied with electric components for hazardous locations. An optional valve position indicator may include a limit switch for Fire & Gas monitoring systems. The valve is intended for open-nozzle water or foam discharge systems.
