REGULATED ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
The Regulated Actuator Assembly (Part No. 429850) contains the
regulator, pneumatic actuator, expellant gas hose for agent tank
hookup, and enclosure knockouts to facilitate installing expellant
piping. This assembly is used in multiple-tank systems and must
be mounted to a rigid surface.
The regulator contains two outlets 135° apart. One outlet is
used to interconnect the expellant gas hose to the enclosed
agent tank. The other outlet connects an expellant gas line to
an additional enclosure or bracket assembly. The regulator is
designed to allow a constant flow of expellant gas into each
agent tank at 110 psi (7.6 bar).
The pneumatic actuator is designed to puncture the expellant
gas cartridge seal upon receiving pressure from the regulated
release assembly actuation piping. The enclosure contains a
knockout to facilitate distribution piping hookup.

AGENT TANK ASSEMBLY
The agent tank shipping assembly (3 Gallon (Part No. 429862)
and 1.5 Gallon (Part No. 429864)) consists of a stainless steel
tank and an adaptor/tube assembly. The adaptor/tube assem-
bly contains a burst disc. The burst disc prevents agent leakage
due to significant temperature fluctuations in the area where
the tank is located. Under normal conditions, the tank requires
hydrostatic testing every twelve years. The date of manufacture
is stamped on the tank nameplate.
The tank is shipped uncharged and must be filled with only
ANSULEX Low pH Liquid Fire Suppressant during installation.

OEM RELEASE/BRACKET ASSEMBLY
(FOR OEM IN-CABINET USE ONLY)
The OEM Regulated Mechanical Release/Bracket Assembly
(Part No. 79493) contains the same regulated release mecha-
nism as the standard AUTOMAN Regulated Release Assembly.
The OEM Regulated Electrical Release/Bracket Assembly (Part
No. 437324*), is identical to the mechanical version except that
it contains a factory installed 120 VAC solenoid and electrical
switch. These release/bracket assemblies must be installed in
a suitable equipment enclosure either horizontally or vertically.
They contain all the necessary mounting and conduit holes
needed to fully install the assembly. The agent tank is installed
separately and need not be bracketed once it is piped and filled.
Note: OEM Release/Bracket Assembly must be installed high
enough in cabinet so that there is sufficient room to install and
remove cartridge.
* Note: OEM Regulated Electrical Release/Bracket Assembly (Part No. 437324) is
not intended to be used with electric detection.
