Dry pipe valve in horizontal oreintation
Dry pipe valve in horizontal oreintation
(OP)
Are there ANY dry pipe system valves designed/approved to be installed in the horizontal position.
We have a very unique challenge........horizontal dry pipe valve would be the best option; however, I cannot find any approved for horizontal oreintation!!
Thanks

1) Are you talking about the discharge coming from the side?
2) Are you talking about both supply and discharge from the sides
Option 2 does not exist for one specific reason.
It would required an extensive engineering and design process that can only to 1 out of 10 applications. No true sale value. Meaning these valve could sit in the warehouse for a while.
I know this because a close friend of mine and regional sales manager for victaulic had that conversation with me years back.
Those with discharges on the side are typically deluge dry valves.
