Johnson Controls, global manufacturer, has introduced the Tyco RM-2 Riser Manifold with Model TD-2 Test and Drain Valve. The UL and UL-C Listed, FM Approved system simplifies installation, testing, and operation for fire protection contractors by providing all the necessary components in a pre-assembled compact unit, including a unique linear shut-off function offering the ultimate sealing design.
The included Tyco Model TD-2 Test and Drain Valve with adjustable pressure relief simplifies operations for contractors and their customers, such as waterflow alarm device testing and feed main draining. The linear shut-off function reduces leakage over time due to debris in media.
The RM-2 Riser Manifold features all the necessary alarms, pressure gauges and check valve equipment to fully comply with NFPA 13 standards. The manifold may be installed horizontally or vertically for both single sprinkler rises and floor control in high rises. Additionally, all components can be rotated at the coupling joints to customize the product orientation for optimal installation.
The integrated pressure relief valve automatically bleeds system pressure exceeding 175 psi (12,1 bar) to the manifold drain to maintain proper system pressure. The TD-2 Test and Drain Valve also features test orifices equivalent to that of a 2.8K and 4.2K orifice sprinkler and is available in both 1.25-inch and 2-inch sizes.
