Scan the QR code or enter the URL in a web browser to access the most up-to-date electronic version of this document. Data rates may apply. General Description The TYCO Models BFV-300 and BFV300C Grooved End Butterfly Valves are indicating type valves designed for use in fire protection systems where a visual indication of open or closed valve condition is required. They are used, for example, as system, sectional and pump water control valves. They have grooved inlet and outlet connections that are suitable for use with grooved end pipe couplings listed or approved for fire protection systems. For applications requiring supervision of the open or closed state of the valve, the gear operators for the Model BFV-300/BFV-300C Butterfly Valves feature two sets of factory installed internal switches each having singlepole double-throw (SPDT) contacts as shown in Figure 3. The supervisory switches transfer their electrical contacts when there is movement from the open or closed disc position during the first two revolutions of the handwheel. Note: If the butterfly valve is required in a foam system, verify the valve is compatible by referring to the foam concentrate manufacturer technical literature for information about foam compatibility, and acceptable system equipment materials of construction. NOTICE The Model BFV-300/BFV-300C Grooved End Butter fly Valves described herein must be installed and maintained in compliance with this document, as well as with the applicable standards of the NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION, in addition to the standards of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair the performance of these devices. MODEL BFV-300 OPEN SUPERVISORY SWITCHES The owner is responsible for maintaining their fire protection system and devices in proper operating condition.

The disc position may need adjustment or realignment while in the disc open (parallel) or disc closed (perpendicular) positions. Adjustment scenarios may include the following: • Disc open left offset • Disc open right offset • Disc closed shortfall offset • Disc closed overreach offset Adjustment guidelines: This procedure applies to 8 in. (DN200) and larger valves that are equipped with segmented gear operators. The adjustments must be made only while the position of the valve disc can be observed —either prior to valve installation, or when the valve is removed for the purpose of adjusting...
