1.  INTRODUCTION

Viking supervised VXD Single-Interlocked Preaction Systems utilize a Viking 

Model VXD Deluge Valve and a pneumatically pressurized automatic sprinkler 

system. This feature helps prevent undetected leaks. Single-Interlocked Preaction 

Systems are commonly used where the sprinkler system piping and/or sprinkler 

may be subject to damage. If the system piping or a sprinkler is damaged, 

supervisory pressure is reduced and a “low air” supervisory is activated. The 

electrically controlled preaction systems include an electric solenoid valve 

controlled by an approved release control panel (sold separately) with compatible 

detection system (sold separately). In fire conditions, when the detection system 

operates, the system release control panel energizes the solenoid valve open, 

causing the deluge valve to open. The sprinkler system fills with water. If any 

sprinklers have opened, water will flow from the system. If sprinklers have not 

opened, water will be in the sprinkler system piping when the sprinkler operates. 

A sprinkler must open before water flows from the system.
