DRY PIPE VALVE & SYSTEM

摘要

A differential control valve and method of operation as a residential dry pipe fluid control valve which provides for a high liquid to gas trip ratio. The valve includes a housing having an interior surface defining an internal chamber with a central axis. The valve further includes a first port; a second port and a third port, each in communication with the internal chamber. A first valve seat is disposed along the interior surface of the housing circumscribed about the central axis and a second valve seat is circumscribed about the first valve seat. A sealing member defines a sealed position and an open position with respect to the valve seats. A spring member biases the seal member toward the open position and is disposed between the sealing member and the interior of the housing.
