Where is theTamper in Sprinkler system?

The Tamper switches for a fire sprinkler system are located on the main control valves which are located on either side of the backflow preventer for a wet type automatic fire sprinkler system. These switches are wired into the monitoring control system/alarm panel to ensure the valves remain open at all times (or not tampered with.) If the tamper switches are used they will show a supervisory trouble on the panel so the monitoring company or business will know there system is out of service.

What is a tamper switch?

When triggered, the tamper switch sends a signal to the control panel to alert of a possible breach or tampering attempt.


What is the role of a tamper switch on butterfly valve?

A tamper switch (in a burglar alarm system for example) is designed to stop un-authorised access to the inside of the control panel. It usually takes the form of a small micro-switch that activated when the cover is opened. Even if the alarm has been de-activated (by entering the correct code) the anti-tamper circuit is still active so long as there is power to the system. Cutting the lead to the external sounder, or the mains lead doesn't stop it either - there is usually an internal sounder, and a back-up battery.

# Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. # If the vehicle is so equipped, remove the tilt steering column lever. # Remove both the upper and lower shrouds from the steering column # Remove the lower fixed column shroud. # Move the upper fixed column shroud far enough to access the rear of the multi-function switch # Remove the tamper proof mounting screws (a Snap On tamper proof torx bit TTXR20B2 or equivalent is required) that secure the multi-function switch to the steering column. # Gently pull the switch away from the steering column far enough to access and remove the multi-function switch wire harness connector screw. # Unplug the wire harness connector from the multi-function switch. # Reverse the removal procedures to install. Tighten the fasteners as follows: #* Multi-function switch wire harness connector screw - 2 N·m (17 in. lbs.) #* Multi-function switch mounting screws - 2 N·m (17 in. lbs.)

How do you turn off a fire sprinkler tamper alarm?

First you locate the source of the alarm, undo the condition (e.g., valve closed, inadequate pressure, etc), then reset the alarm condition on the sprinkler control panel and reset the alarm on the fire alarm control panel (assuming they're connected, as required by many fire codes).
