The TYCO Model RM-2 Riser Manifold features the necessary water-flow alarm, pressure gauge, alarm test orifice, drain, sight glass and check valve equipment in a single assembly for use in National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard NFPA 13* compliant commercial sprinkler systems. The riser manifold is available in a 2 in. to 6 in. range of sizes, and provides a cost effective and easy transition arrangement to control valves and system piping. The riser manifold may be installed in either a horizontal or vertical orientation, for both single sprinkler rises and floor control in high-rises. A TYCO Model TD-2 Test and Drain Valve installed on the riser manifold as shown in Figure 2 provides a simplified means for testing of waterflow alarm devices and draining for feed mains. The pressure relief valve, integrated in the TYCO Model TD-2 Test and Drain Valve, has an adjustable range of 100 psi (6,9 bar) to 310 psi (21,4 bar). Excess system pressure is exhausted internally through the TD-2 valve’s drain outlet. For more information about the Model TD-2 Test and Drain Valve, refer to Technical Data Sheet TFP965. * Although the Riser Manifold described in this technical data sheet is intended for the NFPA 13 sprinkler systems, it may be used for NFPA 13D or 13R residential sprinkler systems, where a test orifice of 2.8K or 4.2K is acceptable. The TYCO Model RM-2 Riser Manifold 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 (NFPA), in addition to the standards of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair the performance of these devices. The owner is responsible for maintaining their fire protection system and devices in proper operating condition. Contact the installing contractor or product manufacturer with any questions. Listed by California State Fire Marshall Note: Any alteration to the assembly voids UL approval and the product warranty.
