General
Description
The TYCO DV-5A Red-E Cabinet is a
pre-assembled fire protection valve
package enclosed within a free-stand-
ing cabinet designed to occupy minimal
floor space and to provide an aestheti-
cally pleasing enclosure for a fire pro-
tection valve riser. The entire package
is pre-wired and the water inlet and
outlets to the valve riser are grooved to
provide minimal installation time. The
valve package includes the system
(manual) shut-off control valve, auto-
matic water control valve, and water-
flow/supervisory switches. When dry
pilot actuation is utilized, a built-in air
compressor with associated controls
provides an automatic air supply for
the dry pilot lines.
Integral to the DV-5
A Red-E Cabinet is a
control panel and back-up batteries for
providing electrical alarm, supervisory,
and trouble functions. All switches
within the cabinet are pre-wired to the
control panel, making the electrical
connections for power, detection cir-
cuits (as applicable), and alarms the
only remaining connections to com-
plete the system.
In addition to the control panel being
integral to the DV-5
A Red-E Cabinet,
windows have been provided in the
door for viewing the releasing panel
functions and essential system pres-
sure gauges. A lock for the control
panel access door is standard, and a
lock for the cabinet door is optional.

Construction
The Red-E Cabinet is constructed of a
minimum thickness of 14 gauge steel,
and is free standing. The standard
paint finish is bright red and black. The
front doors of the enclosure are fully
hinged and removable and open nearly
to the cabinet floor level, allowing easy
access to the couplings when connect-
ing the water supply and drain.
The compressor is stored near the
bottom of the cabinet on a pull out
drawer for access through the double
doors. Pre-drilled holes on tabs along
the base provide an anchor point for the
cabinet to be secured to the floor when
required. Industrial grade rollers at the
bottom of the cabinet are standard.
Internal controls that provide functions
to reset a system after operation, for
example, alarm test valve, main drain
valve, are individually tagged for easy
identification. All prefabricated piping
is Schedule 40 steel.
