OPERATION <br />During fire conditions, when the temperature around the sprinkler approaches its operating temperature, the cover plate detaches, <br />releasing the deflector. Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the heat -sensitive liquid in the glass bulb to expand, <br />causing the glass to shatter, releasing the yoke and pip cap and sealing spring assembly.. Water flowing through the sprinkler <br />orifice strikes the deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern over a specific area of coverage determined by the water supply pres- <br />sure at the sprinkler to extinguish or control the fire. <br />6. INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE <br />Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements. <br />7.
