WARNING: The COLLECTanDRAIN Anti-Trip Plate is designed to make sure
the auxiliary drain is operated in the proper manner and correct sequence as
per NFPA standards to avoid accidental tripping, improper maintenance, and
acts of vandalism. The 5100ALBV Water Detection Alarm detects the presence
of water in the COLLECTanDRAIN and alerts personnel when maintenance
is needed. COLLECTanDRAIN Models 5100 and 5200 are NOT designed
to prevent freezing or automatically drain condensation from the system.
FAILURE TO DRAIN CONDENSATION MAY RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC
SYSTEM FAILURE DUE TO FREEZING. SYSTEM MUST BE MAINTAINED
PER NFPA 25.

Model 5100/5200 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Retrofitting onto an Existing System:
1. Isolate branch line or zone where the COLLECTanDRAIN is to be installed.
2. Relieve air pressure from the branch line.
3. Remove existing auxiliary drain (drum drip, low-point drain).
4. Install the COLLECTanDRAIN by attaching the supply valve (upper) to the
re sprinkler system pipe in accordance with NFPA 13 standards pertaining
to low-point drains (auxiliary drains).
5. Conrm that the supply valve (upper) is in the open position and ready to
collect condensation, the drain valve (lower) is closed, and the plug is tight.
Installation into a New System:
1. Install the COLLECTanDRAIN by attaching the supply valve (upper) to the
re sprinkler system pipe in accordance with NFPA 13 standards pertaining
to low-point drains (auxiliary drains).
2. Conrm that the supply valve (upper) is in the open position and ready to
collect condensation, the drain valve (lower) is closed, and the plug is tight.
3. Activate the re sprinkler system for operation.
NOTE: The presence of a small amount of water in the COLLECTanDRAIN Model
5100 will activate the Model 5100ALBV water detector’s visual and audible alarms.
The COLLECTanDRAIN must be completely drained to silence the alarms. If the
Model 5100ALBV is wired directly to a re panel or BMS call or email AGF for
instructions on silencing the water detector’s local alarms.
Model 5100/5200 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To Collect Condensation per NFPA 25:
1. Close the drain valve (lower) by making sure the valve handle is
perpendicular to the collection assembly.
2. Apply a proper sealant to the drain plug threads and make sure it is secured
tightly into the bottom of the drain valve (lower).
3. Slide the Anti-Trip Plate to its lowest position.
4. Open the supply valve (upper). If equipped, install the anti-tamper lock.

To Drain Condensation per NFPA 25:
1. Close the supply valve (upper).
2. Remove the drain plug, slide the Anti-Trip Plate into its highest position, and
open the drain valve (lower) to release the collected condensation.
3. Once the collected condensation has been drained, close the drain valve
(lower), slide the Anti-Trip Plate to its lowest position, and open the supply
valve (upper).
4. Allow time for any remaining condensation in the system to accumulate.
Then, repeat steps 1-3 until all of the condensation has been drained from
the system.
5. Once all condensation has been drained apply a proper sealant to the drain
plug threads and make sure it is secured tightly into the bottom of the drain
valve (lower).
6. Close the drain valve (lower) and slide the Anti-Trip Plate down into its
lowest position.
7. Open the supply valve (upper). If equipped, install the anti-tamper lock.
Model 5100ALBV INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Model 5100ALBV Water Detector operates on the principle of conductivity.
It contains a probe that is attached to the piping system and when condensate
collects in the piping and reaches the probe the electrical circuit is completed.
When the circuit is completed the water detector sounds an audible alarm and
ashes a visual red LED alert. The module will reset when the condensation is
completely drained.
Retrofitting onto an Existing System:
1. Isolate the auxiliary drain (drum drip, low-point drain) where the Model
5100ALBV Water Detector is to be installed by closing the supply valve.
2. Remove the drain plug and open the drain valve (lower) to empty any
condensation in the auxiliary drain. Then, remove the existing drain valve
(lower) from the auxiliary drain
3. Apply a proper sealant to the Model 5100ALBV threads and install it on the
auxiliary drain where the existing drain valve was just removed. Then, apply
a proper sealant to the drain plug threads and make sure it is secured tightly
into the bottom of the 5100ALBV.
4. Make sure the Model 5100ALBV is closed and the drain plug is tight. Then,
open the supply valve (upper).
5. See Page 5-7 for wiring instructions.

Model 5100ALBV OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Power is supplied to the Model 5100ALBV by a 9V battery (default) or by installing
a 12-24VDC external hard wire (See page 6). Optional 110V plug is also available.
NOTE: The 5100ALBV can draw up to 100mA during operation. Ensure the power
supply is sized appropriately for this and any other loads on the same circuit.
Battery Operation:
1. Remove the four screws on the alarm box and
take the cover off.
2. For battery operation, check to make sure the
Voltage Jumper is on the front two pins as
shown in Image 1 (Fig. A).
3. Install a 9V battery as shown in Image 2.
NOTE: When the battery begins to run low the
alarm will chirp and the LED will double ash,
or ash yellow on older models.
4. Place the 9V battery under the circuit board
as shown in Image 3.
5. Replace the cover with the 4 screws.

External Hard Wire Operation:
1. Remove the four screws on the alarm box and
take the cover off.
2. For external power operation, place the
Voltage Jumper on the two rear pins as
shown in Image 4 (Fig. B).
3. While supporting the bottom of the alarm
enclosure remove the knockout using a
slotted screwdriver and a hammer (place a
clean rag underneath the knockout to prevent
debris from falling onto the circuit board).
4. Install ½”, watertight conduit tting or cord
grip into the knockout opening and run the
external power source into the alarm housing
as shown in Image 5.
5. Connect external power source to V+ and V-
terminals as shown in Image 6 (Fig. B). Ensure
DC is from a clean power supply and not full-
wave rectied without a capacitor.
6. Replace the cover with the four screws.
TEMPERATURE SENSING FUNCTION
When the Temperature Sensing Function is enabled and water is present in the
auxiliary drain the Model 5100ALBV will not activate the audible and visual alerts
if the ambient temperature is above 45° F. When water is present and the ambient
temperature falls below 45° F the Model 5100ALBV will activate the audible and
visual alerts. The Temperature Sensing Function helps extend battery life and
eliminates unwanted alarm conditions when the threat of freezing is not present.
By default, the Temperature Sensing Function is enable when shipped. The
Model 5100ALBV will not detect water unless the temperature is under 45° F.
See page 7 to disengage Temperature Sensing Function.

To Disengage the Temperature Sensing Function:
1. Remove the four screws on the alarm box and
take the cover off.
2. Remove Temperature Jumper from left/center
pins and reinstall on right/center pins as
shown in Image 7 (Fig. C).
3. Replace the cover with the four screws.
NOTE: If the Temperature Jumper only utilizes two pins call or email AGF for
instructions on how to engage/disengage the Temperature Sensing Function.
REMOTE NOTIFICATION FUNCTION
The Model 5100ALBV Water Detection Alarm also features a Remote Notication
Function. This function allows you to connect the unit directly to the re control
panel or BMS, so when water is detected in the auxiliary drain you will be notied
remotely.
Remote Operation Setup:
1. Remove the four screws on the alarm box and
take the cover off.
2. Connect wiring to the Common Terminal and
either the N.O. or N.C. terminal as shown in
Image 8 (Fig. D). Contact is rated for 2.0A @
30VDC.
3. Replace the cover with the four screws.
NOTE: Please call or email AGF for instructions on how to locally silence the
audible alert if directly wire to a re control panel or BMS.
