PILOT LINE DETECTION

The GW-S sprinkler series offers high quality, European manufactured, modern compact design, that meet the rigid test requirements set out by the world leading approval authorities. The unique GW PTFE / double groove seal in combination with high end heat responsive frangible glass bulbs guarantee durable operation and reliable performance. The use of precisely CNC-machined hot forged frames eliminates the risk of porosity.

For improved corrosion resistance the GW-S series can be supplied (on request) in superior materials, such as: stainless steel SS316 or 254SMO, Nickel Aluminium Bronze and even in Titanium. Also available with ENP plating (electroless nickel plating). Consult GW Sprinkler for further options.

Download (pdf, 759 KB)

GW-S standard response detectors are used in fixed fire protection systems. The detector head is typically fitted in the pilot line of a deluge detection system. When exposed to heat from a fire the detector heat-sensitive glass bulb shatters and the detector head goes open. This in turn will release the air from the pilot line causing a pressure drop which will trip the deluge valve to discharge water through all open spray nozzles and control / extinguish the fire.

Available in temperature range 57°C, 68°C, 79°C, 93°C, 141°C, 182°C
