The System Sensor WFD Series vane-type water flow detector, with a computer designed paddle, fits Schedule 10through Schedule 40 steel pipe sizes 2 through 8 . The design of this unit makes it easy to install and simple to maintain. It can be mounted in a vertical or horizontal position and is suitable for indoor and UL-listed outdoor wit-pipe sprinkler installations. Switch assembly and delay mechanism assembly are field replaceable. Advanced features include: Sealed Retard Assures that the adjustable retard is not contaminated by dust and dirt when the cover is removed. Visual Switch Activation Permits installer to accurately set the retard even under extremely noisy conditions Mechanical Delay Adjustment The pneumatic delay is preset at dial setting 2 in the factory.
