Assemble valve to a horizontal or vertical water supply that has an uninterrupted source of potable water. Use pipe sealant on

further injury.
OPERATION
This valve is activated one of two ways, depending on the model in question.
1. SE-911-PR: Valve is activated by pulling downward on the aluminum pull rod, and is deactivated by manually pushing
the pull rod back to the off position.
2. SE-911-CR: Valve is activated by pulling downward on the 8” dia. stainless steel ring, and is deactivated by pulling
downward on the 3” dia. stainless steel ring.
Both model valves will discharge water until they are manually shut off following the instructions above.
TESTING PROGRAM
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that all safety emergency equipment shall be activated on a weekly
basis to flush the line and verify proper operation. Speakman Company furnishes a testing record tag
(91-0635) with each unit. On this tag the date of inspection and the inspectors initials should be noted.
