INSTALLATION WARNING:Viking sprinklers are manufactured and tested to meet rigid requirements of the approving agencies.The sprinklers are designed to be installed in accordance with recognized installation standards or FM Global Loss Prevention Data Sheets. System design must be based on ESFR design guidelines described in the latest edition of the applicable FM Global Loss Prevention Data Sheets, the latest NFPA Standards, the latest standards of Verband der Sachversicherer(VdS), Loss Prevention Council (LPCB), the Authorities Having Jurisdiction,and also with the provisions of governmental codes,ordinances, and standards whenever appli- cable. Deviation from the standards or any alteration to the sprinkler after it leaves the factory including, but not limited to: painting, plating, coating, or modification, may render the sprinkler inoperative and will automatically nullify the approval and any guarantee made by The Viking Corporation. A. Sprinklers must be handled with care.They must be stored in a cool, dry place in their original shipping container. Never install sprinklers that have been dropped or damaged in any way. Such sprinklers should be destroyed immediately. NOTE: Wet pipe systems must be provided with adequate heat. B.The sprinklers must be installed after the piping is in place to prevent mechanical damage. Before installing, be sure to have the appropriate sprinkler model and style, with the correct orifice size, temperature rating, and response characteristics. C. With the sprinkler contained in the plastic protective cap, apply a small amount of pipe-joint compound or tape to the male threads only, while taking care not to allow a build-up of compound in the sprinkler orifice. D. Use ONLY sprinkler wrench 10285W/B or 13635W/B (shown in Figure 1)for installing ESFR Sprinkler VK510! With the sprinkler contained in the protective cap, install the sprinkler onto the piping by applying the sprinkler wrench to the sprinkler wrench flats only,while taking care not to damage the sprinkler operating parts. • DO NOT use any other type of wrench, as this could damage the unit. • DO NOT use the sprinkler deflector or fusible element to start or thread the sprinkler into a fitting. • DO NOT exceed 50 ft. lbs. of torque (hand tight, plus approximately two full turns with the wrench) to install these sprinklers. Higher levels of torque may distort the sprinkler inlet with consequent leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.
