EC sprinklers are intended for Light-Hazard occupancies with smooth, flat, horizontal ceil- ings unless otherwise specified In addition to the above markings, the sprinkler is marked "EC" QUICK RESPONSE (QR) SPRINKLER A spray sprinkler with a fast- actuating operating element The use of quick response sprinklers may be limited due to occupancy and hazard Refer to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) prior to installing QUICK RESPONSE EXTENDED COVERAGE (QREC) SPRINKLER A spray sprinkler designed to discharge water over an area having the maximum dimensions indicated in the individual listing This is a sprinkler with an operating element that meets the criteria for quick response QREC sprinklers are only intended for Light Hazard occupancies The sprinkler is marked "QREC". FLUSH SPRINKLER. A decorative spray sprinkler intended for installation with a concealed piping system. The unit is mounted flush with the ceiling or wall, with the fusible link exposed. Upon actuation, the deflector extends beyond the ceiling or wall to distribute water discharge The sprinkler is marked "SSP', "PEND", or"SIDEWALL" and "TOP" CONCEALED SPRINKLER A decorative spray sprinkler intended for installation with a concealed piping system The sprinkler is hidden from view by a cover plate installed flush with the ceiling or wall During fire conditions, the cover plate detaches, and upon sprinkler actuation, the deflector extends beyond the ceiling or wall to distribute water discharge The sprinkler is marked "SSP", 'PEND", or"SIDEWALL" and "TOP" RECESSED SPRINKLER A spray sprinkler assembly intended for installation with a concealed piping system The assembly con- sists of a sprinkler installed in a decorative adjustable recessed escutcheon that minimizes the protrusion of the sprinkler beyond the ceiling or wall without adversely affecting the sprinkler distribution or sensitivity Refer to the appropriate technical data page for allowable sprinkler models, temperature ratings, and occupancy classifications DO NOT RECESS ANY SPRINKLER NOT LISTED FOR USE WITH THE ESCUTCHEON CORROSION-RESISTANT SPRINKLER A special service sprinkler with non-corrosive protective coatings, or that is fabricated from non-corrosive material, for use in atmospheres that would normally corrode sprinklers DRY SPRINKLER A special-service sprinkler intended for installation on dry pipe systems or wet pipe systems where the sprinkler is subject to freezing temperatures. The unit consists of a sprinkler permanently secured to an extension nipple with a sealed inlet end to prevent water from entering the nipple until the sprinkler operates The unit MUST be installed in a tee fitting Dry upright sprinklers are marked with the "B" dimension [distance from the face of the fitting (tee) to the top of the deflector] Dry pendent and sidewall sprinklers are marked with the "A" dimension [the distance from the face of fitting (tee) to the finished surface of the ceiling or wall] LARGE DROP SPRINKLER A type of special application sprinkler used to provide fire control of specific high-challenge fire haz- ards Large drop sprinklers are designed to produce an umbrella-shaped spray pattern downward with a higher percentage of "large" water droplets than standard spray sprinklers The sprinkler has an extra-large orifice with a nominal K-Factor of 11 2 Marked "HIGH CHALLENGE" and "UPRIGHT" EARLY SUPPRESSION FAST-RESPONSE (ESFR) SPRINKLER A sprinkler intended to provide fire suppression of specific high- challenge fire hazards through the use of a fast response fusible link, 14 0, 16 8 or 25 2 nominal K-Factor,and special deflector ESFR sprinklers are designed to produce high-momentum water droplets in a hemispherical pattern below the deflector This permits penetration of the fire plume and direct wetting of the burning fuel surface while cooling the atmosphere early in the development of a high-challenge fire Marked "ESFR" and "UPRIGHT" or"PEND" INTERMEDIATE LEVELRACK STORAGE SPRINKLER A standard spray sprinkler assembly designed to protect its operating element from the spray of sprinklers installed at higher elevations The assembly consists of a standard or large orifice upright or pendent sprinkler with an integral upright or pendent water shield and guard assembly Use only those sprinklers that have been tested and listed for use with the assembly Refer to the technical data page for allowable sprinkler models RESIDENTIAL SPRINKLER A sprinkler intended for use in the following occupancies one-and two-family dwellings with the fire protection sprinkler system installed in accordance with NFPA 13D, residential'occupancies up to four stories in height with the fire protection system installed in accordance with NFPA 13R, and where allowed by the Authority Having Jurisdiction in resi- dential portions of any occupancy with the fire protection system installed in accordance with NFPA 13 Form No F_080814 18 12 06 Rev 14 1.P65
