ICAF System with Electric Fail-safe Release
1. Description
The
ICAF
System utilizes a Flow Control valve
(B14)
to
control water flow into system piping equipped with open
rotating spray nozzles. The system piping remains empty
until the Flow Control Valve is activated by operation of the
release system.
In fire condition, when the detection condition is satisfied the
ARC-1 Control Panel energizes the Solenoid Valve
(R2)
open, the pneumatic control line is then pressurized causing
the water, air and foam pneumatically activated control
valves
(A1, B9
&
F1)
to open simultaneously and generate
the CAF through a piping system into the discharge devices
and to be discharged over the area served by the discharge
devices.
Electric Fail-Safe Release
means that if the AC Power fails
and the battery backup expires while the system is operating,
the system will fail-safe, and continue flowing until AC Power
is restored or the system is manually shut-off
2. Normal conditions

d) Flow test valve
(B6)
is CLOSED.
e) System main drain valves
(B16)
are CLOSED.
f) Alarm test valve

is CLOSED.
j) All gauge valves are OPEN.
3. Gauges:
a) Water supply
(B12)
- at water supply pressure
b) Priming chamber
