ABSTRACT:
In the embodiments described in the specification, a deluge and preaction control system supplies water to a sprinkler line through a solenoid control valve which may be actuated by a control panel receiving electrical signals from detectors or from an emergency switch. A preaction riser assembly is arranged to bypass the solenoid control valve to supply water to the sprinkler line through a manual valve and to permit testing of the system. An optional compressor supplying air pressure of at least 2 psi to the sprinkler line and detects damage to the sprinkler line by loss of pressure.
