(762 mm). The maxi- <br />mum permitted concrete tee length <br />is 32 ft (9,8 m). However, where the <br />concrete tee length exceeds 32 ft <br />(9,8 m), non-combustible baffles, <br />equal in height to the depth of the <br />tees, can be installed so that the <br />space between the tees does not <br />exceed 32 ft (9,8 m) in length. <br />2. The sprinkler deflectors are to be <br />located in a horizontal plane at or <br />above 1 in. (25,4 mm) below the <br />bottom of the concrete tee stems. <br />3. When the sprinkler deflectors are <br />located higher than a horizontal <br />plane 1 in. (25,4 mm) beneath the <br />bottom of the concrete tee stems, <br />the obstruction to sprinkler dis- <br />charge criteria requirements of <br />NFPA 13 for extended coverage <br />upright and pendent sprinklers <br />applies. <br />FM Approval Requirements <br />Series EC-11 and EC-14 Extended <br />Coverage Upright and Pendent Sprin- <br />klers are to be installed in accor- <br />dance with the applicable FM Loss <br />Prevention Data Sheet for limited use <br />in buildings of specific roof construc- <br />tion and for the protection of certain <br />specific ordinary hazard (non -storage <br />and/or non-flammable or combustible <br />liquid) occupancies. Information pro- <br />vided in the FM Loss Prevention Data <br />Sheets relates to, but is not limited to, <br />hydraulic design, ceiling slope, and <br />obstructions, minimum and maximum <br />allowable spacing, and deflector -to - <br />ceiling distance. <br />These criteria may differ from UL <br />and/or NFPA criteria. Therefore, the <br />designer should review and become <br />familiar with FM requirements before <br />proceeding with design. <br />
