Pressure Gauge for FK-5-1-12 System

The pressure gauge indicates the internal pressure of FK-5-1-12 fire suppression containers. It can be removed and replaced without removing the agent first. The gauge is installed at the factory before the container is filled and should read 500 psig at 70°F, with temperatures other than 70°F referenced in a chart correlating temperature and pressure.

DATA SHEET

PRESSURE GAUGE FOR FK-5-1-12

DESCRIPTION

Fike Clean Agent Fire Suppression containers with FK-5-1-12 agent are
provided with a pressure gauge (P/N 02-15807) to indicate the internal
container pressure.
The pressure gauge scale is calibrated to show the actual pressure and is
color-coded to show operating range, under-pressure range, and over-
pressure range.
This gauge can be removed or replaced on a charged container without
removing the agent first. This port works by allowing a small controlled
amount of leakage past its internal threads. This provides enough flow to
operate the pressure gauge while being small enough to allow the gauge to
be removed safety.
APPROVALS:
The pressure gauge is installed on the container at the factory before the  UL Listed
container is filled / shipped.  ULC Listed
The container pressure is checked as a part on the installation procedure.  FM Approved
The gauge should read 500 psig at 70°F (34.5 bar at 21°C). For temperatures
other than 70°F (21°C), reference Figure 1 – Temperature vs. Pressure Chart.
