To Drain Condensation per NFPA 25:

1.  Close the supply valve (upper).
2.  Remove the drain plug, slide the Anti-Trip Plate into its highest position, and 

open the drain valve (lower) to release the collected condensation.

3.  Once the collected condensation has been drained, close the drain valve 

(lower), slide the Anti-Trip Plate to its lowest position, and open the supply 
valve (upper).

4.  Allow time for any remaining condensation in the system to accumulate. 

Then, repeat steps 1-3 until all of the condensation has been drained from 
the system.

5.  Once all condensation has been drained apply a proper sealant to the drain 

plug threads and make sure it is secured tightly into the bottom of the drain 
valve (lower).

6.  Close the drain valve (lower) and slide the Anti-Trip Plate down into its 

lowest position.

7.  Open the supply valve (upper). If equipped, install the anti-tamper lock.

Model 5100ALBV INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The Model 5100ALBV Water Detector operates on the principle of conductivity. 
It contains a probe that is attached to the piping system and when condensate 
collects in the piping and reaches the probe the electrical circuit is completed. 
When the circuit is completed the water detector sounds an audible alarm and 
flashes a visual red LED alert. The module will reset when the condensation is 
completely drained.

Retrofitting onto an Existing System:

1.  Isolate the auxiliary drain (drum drip, low-point drain) where the Model 

5100ALBV Water Detector is to be installed by closing the supply valve.

2.  Remove the drain plug and open the drain valve (lower) to empty any 

condensation in the auxiliary drain. Then, remove the existing drain valve 
(lower) from the auxiliary drain

3.  Apply a proper sealant to the Model 5100ALBV threads and install it on the 

auxiliary drain where the existing drain valve was just removed. Then, apply 
a proper sealant to the drain plug threads and make sure it is secured tightly 
into the bottom of the 5100ALBV.

4.  Make sure the Model 5100ALBV is closed and the drain plug is tight. Then, 

open the supply valve (upper).

5.  See Page 5-7 for wiring instructions.
