1- General description
This TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III integrated fire protection
system by FIREFLEX Systems Inc. consists of a wet pipe
system trim totally pre-assembled, pre-wired and factory
tested. All electrical and mechanical components of the
system are contained in one single unit.
The only connections required for installation are the water
supply inlet, the water discharge outlet, the main drain, the
detection network, the electrical trouble, supervisory and
alarm connections, as well as the AC power line for the
release control panel. The discharge outlet is connected
to a fixed piping network. Water is the extinguishing
agent.
On system piping network, closed heat sensitive automatic
sprinklers are spaced and located in accordance with
recognized installation standards in order to detect a fire.
Only those sprinklers immediately over or near to fire
operate, minimizing water damage.
Wet pipe system with FIRECYCLE®III release uses closed
automatic sprinklers on the system piping network, which
is filled with water. The FIRECYCLE®rate compensated
temperature detector on detection network is installed in
parallel with the system piping network and is designed to
operate before a sprinkler head fuses. Detection system
operates first and gives an alarm signal.
Wet pipe system is designed so the flow control valve will
open when aFIRECYCLE®detector on the detection
network activates. When the flow control valve opens,
water will flow into the system piping network and out of
any open automatic sprinklers and any other opening on
the system.
The TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III wet pipe system allows
the discharge cycle to stop after a preset delay when all
FIRECYCLE®detectors had returned to their normal
condition.
Note: Every TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III unit is identified
with its unique serial number. This number is located on
an adhesive label inside the main door panel and is used
to maintain a record in our computerized data base. Have
this serial number handy when calling for information on
your unit (format is TOTX####).

6- Configuration description
TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III wet pipe system is built
around the Viking trim using straight through flow control
valve model J-1 (model J-2 is the Halar®coated version
for use in corrosive environments).
The valve is rated up to a maximum of 250 PSI WWP
(1724 kPa) and is available in the following diameters:
1½" (40 mm) 3" (80 mm) 6" (150 mm)
2" (50 mm) 4" (100 mm)
TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III wet pipe system is supplied
with groove/groove flow control valve.
6.1 Wet pipe system
The system piping network is pressurized with water,
supplied from a dependable source. Thewet pipe system
uses the Viking flow control valve which open when a
FIRECYCLE®detector from the detection network activates,
or anytime the handle of the emergency release valve is
pulled.
If a detector on the detection network activates, the flow
control valve will open but the water will remains trapped
inside the system piping network until an automatic
sprinkler fuses, flowing water.
7- System release
7.1 FIRECYCLE®III release
Wet pipe system with FIRECYCLE®III release requires an
electric detection network equipped with FIRECYCLE®
detectors. Release trim for the flow control valve requires
a normally closed solenoid valve controlled by an approved
releasing control panel (if provided with this system, see
section ECONTROLS SECTION and VFR-400 manual for
details).
In fire condition, the activation of a FIRECYCLE®detector on
the detection network is required to energize the solenoid
valve, causing the flow control valve to open. If automatic
sprinklers are still closed, water will remains trapped inside
the system piping network until an automatic sprinkler
fuses. If any automatic sprinkler fuses, water will flow from
the wet pipe system through opened sprinklers. Automatic
sprinkler must open to allow water to flow from the wet
pipe system.
The fire status is sensed by the FIRECYCLE®detectors.
When both FIRECYCLE®detectors had returned to their
normal state, a soak timer cycle starts. At the end of the
soak timer, if the detection condition is still normal, the
normally closed solenoid valve is de-energized, causing
the flow control valve to close, allowing the water flow to
stop automatically.
Should the fire rekindle, FIRECYCLE®detectors will be
reactivated, and the discharge sequence will be initiated
again. This feature - unique to the TOTALPAC®X
FIRECYCLE®III wet pipe system - will repeat as long as
power is available to the releasing control panel, helping to
minimize water usage or damage, and reduce the danger
of pollution to surrounding areas.

Mechanical Section - Wet Pipe System - FIRECYCLE®III Release
FM-076G-0-55A
1.3 Placing the system in service
1. Verify that the main water supply valve (D1) is CLOSED.
2. Verify that all system piping has been properly tested.
Note: For proper operation of the wet pipe system and to
minimize unwanted (false) alarms, it is important to
remove trapped air from the system when filling it with
water. Consider installation of auxiliary vents to facilitate
bleeding.
3. Verify that the manual emergency release valve (B10) is
OPEN.
4. If applicable, reset the release control panel (supplied
by others). Solenoid valve (F1) should CLOSE.
5. SLOWLY OPEN main water supply valve (D1) until fully
open.
Note: By opening the inspector's test valve and slowly fill
the system piping network, it can reduce the apparition of
false alarms during normal supervisory condition.
6. CLOSE the manual emergency release valve (B10).
Verify that the pressure indicated at the priming
pressure gauge (B11) is equal to, or greater than the
pressure indicated at the water supply pressure
gauge (B12).
7. Verify that valves are in their "normal" operating position
(see paragraph 2.1NORMAL CONDITION of the current
section).
8. Check and repair all leaks.
9. On new installation, system that has been placed out of
service, or where new equipment has been installed,
trip test the system to verify that all equipment functions
properly (see paragraph 1.7.1FULL FLOW TRIP TEST of
the current section).
10.Notify the AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION, remote
station alarm monitors, and those in the affected area
that the system is in service.
Note: When a valve has been removed from service and is
subject to freezing or will be out of service for an extended
period of time, all water must be removed from the priming
chamber, trim piping, water supply piping and any other
trapped areas.
1.4 System Operation
1.4.1 In the SET condition
System water supply pressure enters the priming chamber
of the flow control valve (A1) through the priming line which
includes strainer (B2), restricted orifice (B3) and spring
loaded check valve (B4).
Water pressure is trapped in the priming chamber of the
flow control valve (A1) by a spring loaded check
valve (B4), normally closed solenoid valve (F1), normally
open solenoid valve (F2) and manual emergency release
valve (B10). The pressure in the priming chamber holds
the flow control valve clapper closed.
The entire system piping network is filled with water.
1.4.2 In a fire condition
When aFIRECYCLE®detector is activated, the remote
release control panel energizes both the normally closed
solenoid valve (F1)and normally open solenoid valve (F2).
Pressure from the priming chamber of the flow control
valve (A1) is released faster than it is supplied through the
restricted orifice (B3). The flow control valve clapper
opens. When an automatic sprinkler fuses, water will flow
from the system piping network, causing the water flow
switch (C3) to activate.
Note: If the detection system operates due to mechanical
damage or malfunction, the flow control valve (A1) will
open. When an automatic sprinkler fuses, water will flow
from the system piping network, causing water flow water
flow switch (C3) to activate.
Note: If the system piping network or an automatic sprinkler
is damage, the water flow condition will activate the water
flow switch (C3). The release control panel will energize
the normally open solenoid valve (F2). The flow control
valve (A1) will close after a short delay.
1.4.3Cycling discharge stop
Water discharges until all FIRECYCLE®detectors have reset
(cooled below their set point). The release control panel
then activates a soak timer, allowing the system to flow
water for a preset period of time (soak timer).
When the soak timer has elapsed, the remote release
control panel de-energizes the normally closed solenoid
valve (F1), allowing it to close. The normally open
solenoid (F2) remains energized closed. It rebuilds
pressure in the priming chamber of the flow control
valve (A1), allowing it to close and stop discharge.
Should a FIRECYCLE®detector go into alarm, the remote
release control panel energizes once again the normally
closed solenoid valve (F1), and the entire discharge cycle
repeats.

TOTALPAC®X FIRECYCLE®III Page 3of 6
Integrated Fire Protection System
B
Mechanical Section - Wet Pipe System - FIRECYCLE®III Release
FM-076G-0-55A
1.4.4 Manual operation
Anytime the handle of the manual emergency release
valve (B10) is triggered, pressure is released from the
priming chamber of the flow control valve (A1) causing
flow control valve to open. When an automatic sprinkler
fuses, water will flow from the system piping network,
causing the water flow switch (C3)to activate.
1.4.5Supervisory condition
False alarm conditions could be caused by water pressure
surge or trapped air in the system piping network.
Bleeding as much air as possible from high point piping
can fix the problem.
1.4.6Fail-safe condition
If the remote release control panel is no longer powered
under supervisory condition, the system will operate as a
standard wet pipe system.
In case of power loss to solenoid valves (F1 and F2)
following a cycling discharge stop, if the main water supply
valve (D1) is still open while the batteries have reached
their cycle end, the normally open solenoid valve (F2) will
be de-energized, causing the flow control valve (A1) to
reopen.
1.5 Emergency instructions
To take system out of service
WARNING ! Placing a control valve or detection system out
of service may eliminate the fire protection capabilities of
the system. Prior to proceeding, notify all local

contaminated or corrosive water supply or corrosive
atmospheres. For minimum maintenance and inspection
requirements, refer to NFPA-25. In addition, the
AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION may have additional
maintenance, testing, and inspection requirements that
must be followed.
WARNING ! Any system maintenance that involves placing
a control valve or detection system out of service may
eliminate the fire protection capabilities of that system.
Prior to proceeding any testing, notify all local AUTHORITIES
HAVING JURISDICTION. Consideration should be given to
employment of a fire patrol in the affected areas.
1.7.1Full flow trip test
Performance of a full flow trip test is recommended
annually during warm weather. Consider coordinating this
test with operation testing of the releasing devices.
Caution !Performance of this test will cause the flow
control valve (A1) to open.
To trip test the FIRECYCLE®III release system
1. Trip the flow control valve (A1) by performing the
following paragraph “a” or “b”.
a) Energize both solenoid valve (F1 and F2)from the
remote release control panel (supplied by others).
b) Open the door of the manual emergency release
valve (B10) and trigger the handle.
2. The flow control valve (A1) should open. Open the
inspector's test valve. Water flow switch (C3)should

1. Remotely controlled configuration
The TOTALPAC ®X FIRECYCLE ® III remote controlled unit is
provided without an integrated control panel since all
internal supervisory and releasing devices are to be
connected and supervised from a remote Listed releasing
control panel.
The remote releasing control panel is to be wired to the
contractor wiring junction box and terminals provided
(TBA, TBB & optional TBC) as shown in figure 1, and be
compatible with supervisory and alarm system contact
devices as well as releasing solenoid valve.
Notes : No connection should be made directly in the trim
components as this would void warranty and might prevent
the normal operation of the unit.
To maintain the Listings and Approvals of the TOTALPAC ®X
FIRECYCLE ® III unit, the Viking VFR-400 is required as
remote releasing control panel.
Make sure the system will perform as required and is
tested to confirm it meets all requirements, as described in
section B MECHANICAL SECTION).
