Badger® Universal Control Head - B-87-027 - Industry & Range Guard (wet & dry chemical)
B-87-027


A compact, versatile unit used to actuate agent cylinders.

The Badger Universal Control Head is a compact, versatile unit used to actuate agent cylinders on Badger Range Guard and Industry Guard Pre-Engineered fire suppression systems. The control head can be operated via:

  • Two Distinct Automatic Mechanical Detection Lines (fusible links or thermo-bulb links)
  • Optional Electrical Solenoid
  • Remote or Local Manual Mechanical Control

Upon actuation, the Universal Control Head discharges the nitrogen System Cartridge, pressurizing the actuation lines and System Valve Actuators (SVA) mounted on the cylinder valve(s). The SVA(s) open the cylinder valve(s), discharging the Range Guard wet chemical or Industry Guard dry chemical suppression agent. The UCH can be mounted on a wall or directly to an SVA mounted on the cylinder.

The Universal Control Head is UL and ULC Listed with Range Guard Wet Chemical and Industry Guard Dry Chemical Fire Suppression Systems. The UCH is FM approved with the Industry Guard Dry Chemical Systems.

The UCH comes ready to install, with three EMT connectors, one System Valve Actuator (SVA), two microswitches, one nitrogen System Cartridge, and one nitrogen test cartridge.
