WFDTN Series

Waterflow Detector
System Sensor WFDTN T-Tap Waterflow detectors are
designed for primary signaling in residential systems and
branch line signaling.

Features
New directional cover allows installers and inspectors to
easily see the direction of flow
UL-listed models are NEMA 4 rated
New cover provides a better seal, is lighter weight, not painted
and corrosion resistant
Sealed retard mechanism immune to dust and other contaminants
Less exposed metal reduces shock hazard, plastic cover acts
as insulator and is resistant to arcing
Visual switch activation

The new WFDTN Series waterflow detectors from System


Sensor consists of a rugged, NEMA 4-rated enclosure that is
more damage resistant than previous metal designs. The waterflow
detector is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, with the widest
available temperature range, from 32F to 150F.
Both the WFDTN with incorporated timer and WFDTNRN with
immediate activation fit any tee that has a 1 in. NPT branch,
including: 1in., 1in., 1 in. and 2in. NPT threaded ferrous and
brass tees; 1in., 1in., 1in. and 2in. copper sweat tees; Tyco,
Spears, NIBBCO brand 1 in. CPVC tees. Twelve different clearly
marked plastic paddles are available to fit different installation
configurations.

Audible switch activation (73 dBA)


Field-replaceable timer/switch assembly
Accommodates up to 12 AWG wire
Switch Synchronization activates both alarm panel
and local bell or horn strobe
Tamper-resistant cover screws
Improved water sealing

UL-listed models are equipped with tamper-resistant cover screws


to prevent unauthorized entry. Inside, two sets of SPDT (Form C)
synchronized switches are enclosed in a durable terminal block with
new layout designed to make wiring easy with wire ready terminals,
COM terminals are on a different elevation, large barrier between
switches and easy to read raised textured lettering all make wiring
easy. An optional cover tamper switch is available, securely snaps
into place, no tools required.

The WFDTN incorporates a mechanical time delay feature, which


minimizes the risk of false alarm due to pressure surges or air
trapped in the fire sprinkler system. The larger and easy to turn timer
dial makes setting the waterflow detector easy with high contrast
pad printed markings. The dial offers three tabs to help with turning,
with one larger tab located on the dial position for approximately 60
seconds, a notch is also indicated on the dial to locate approximately
30 seconds making setting the detector in dimmly lit locations easy.
The WFDTN series is designed for accuracy and repeatability. The
detector also offers improved performance during vibration in riser
applications where detectors are exposed to a large in rush of water.

Waterflow Detector Specifications


Engineering Specifications
Model shall be WFDTN or WFDTNRN as manufactured by System Sensor. T-Tap waterflow detectors shall be installed on a tee that has a 1in.
NPT branch including: 1in., 1in., 1in. and 2in. NPT threaded ferrous and brass tee; 1in., 1in., 1in. and 2in. copper sweat tees; Tyco,
Spears, NIBBCO brand 1in. CPVC tees as designed on the drawing and /or as specified herein. Detectors shall mount on any clear pipe span
of the appropriate nominal size, either a vertical upflow or horizontal run at least 6 from any fittings or valves that may change water direction,
flow rate, or pipe diameter or no closer than 24in. from a valve or drain. Detectors shall have a sensitivity in the range of 4 to 10 gallons per
minute and a static pressure rating of 375 psi. The WFDTN detector with incorporated time delay mechanism shall respond to waterflow in the
specified direction after a preset time delay that is field adjustable. The delay mechanism shall be a sealed mechanical pneumatic unit with visual
and audible indication of actuation. The actuation mechanism shall include a ethylene vinyl acetate vane inserted through a hole in the pipe
and connected by a mechanical linkage to the delay mechanism. Outputs shall consist of dual SPDT switches (Form C contacts). Two conduit
entrances for standard fittings of commonly used electrical conduit shall be provided on the detectors. A grounding provision is provided. Unless
noted, enclosures shall be NEMA 4 listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. All detectors shall be listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. for
indoor or outdoor use.
