IC/SP valves are installed into a minimum 1" Tee with a 1" x 3/4" NPT reducer bushing or a 1-1/4" x ¾" x 1-1/4" NPT reducer Tee (no bushing) with adequate internal clearance to sense the water temperature in piping. The valve modulates open when the water temperature approaches the valve's set-point. Once the water temperature returns to the safe range, the valve modulates closed, preventing scalding temperatures and minimizing water loss.
A safety hazard for plant personnel will occur through solar radiation or overheating caused by steam or electric tracing resulting in extremely high temperatures at the point of use. The IC/SP valve prevents this safety hazard. When installed in safety showers, eyewash stations, and other locations exposed to the same source of overheating as the system, the IC/SP will be heated just as the pipe system. The valve will open to establish flow until the over-temperature water is eliminated and it will then modulate closed
