Page 4 of 6 <br />TFP176 <br />Installation <br />The Series TY-FRB Sprinklers must <br />be installed in accordance with the fol- <br />lowing instructions: <br />NOTES <br />Do not install any bulb type sprinkler if <br />the bulb is cracked or there is a loss of <br />liquid from the bulb. With the sprinkler <br />held horizontally, a small air bubble <br />should be present. The diameter of the <br />air bubble is approximately 1116 inch <br />(1,6 mm) for the 135°F/57°C to 3132 <br />inch (2,4 mm) for the 286°F/141°C <br />temperature ratings. <br />A leak tight 112 inch NPT sprinklerjoint <br />should be obtained with a torque of 7 <br />to 14 ft lbs. (9,5 to 19, 0 Nm). A maxi- <br />mum of 21 ft. lbs. (28,5 Nm) of torque <br />may be used to install sprinklers with <br />112 NPT connections. Higher levels of <br />torque may distort the sprinkler and <br />cause leakage or impairment of the <br />sprinkler. <br />Do not attempt to make-up for insuffi- <br />cient adjustment in the escutcheon <br />plate by under- or over -tightening the <br />sprinkler. Readjust the position of the <br />sprinkler fitting to suit. <br />The Series TY-FRB Horizontal and <br />Vertical Sidewall Sprinklers must be <br />installed in accordance with the follow- <br />ing instructions. <br />Step 1. Horizontal sidewall sprinklers <br />are to be installed in the horizontal <br />position with their centerline of water- <br />way perpendicular to the backwall and <br />parallel to the ceiling. The word "TOP" <br />on the Deflector is to face towards the <br />ceiling. <br />Vertical sidewall sprinklers are to be <br />installed in the pendent or upright po- <br />sition with the arrow on the Deflector <br />pointing away from the wall. <br />Step 2. With pipe thread sealant ap- <br />plied to the pipe threads, hand tighten <br />the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting. <br />Step 3. Tighten the sprinkler into the <br />sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type <br />6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 5), <br />With reference to Figure 1 or 2, the <br />W-Type 6 Sprinkler Wrench is to be <br />applied to the wrench flats. <br />The Series TY-FRB Recessed Hori- <br />zontal Sidewall Sprinklers must be <br />installed in accordance with the follow- <br />ing instructions. <br />Step A. Recessed horizontal sidewall <br />sprinklers are to be installed in the <br />horizontal position with their centerline <br />of waterway perpendicular to the back <br />wall and parallel to the ceiling. The <br />word 'TOP" on the Deflector is to face <br />towards the ceiling. <br />ARROW MUST <br />POINT AWAY <br />7/16" FROM AND BE O <br />ESCUTCHEON (11,1 mm) PERPENDICULAR <br />1/2„ PLATE SEATING NOMINAL TO THE BACK <br />SURFACE MAKE -IN WALL SURFACE <br />NPT <br />6 <br />5 <br />2-3/16" 2-3/16" <br />(55,6mm) 55,6mm) 4 <br />1-1/2" WRENCJJ7 <br />2 <br />(38,1 mmFLATS <br />3 <br />1 <br />SHOWN SHOWN CROSS <br />PENDENT UPRIGHT SECTION <br />1 - Frame 3- Sealing 4- Bulb 6- Deflector <br />2- Button Assembly 5- Compression 7- Ejection Spring <br />Screw <br />" Temperature rating is indicated on deflector or adjacent to orifice seat on frame. <br />""Pipe thread connections per ISO 7/1 can be provided on special request. <br />FIGURE 2 <br />5.6 K-FACTOR QUICK RESPONSE <br />SERIES TY-FRB VERTICAL SIDEWALL (TY3431) SPRINKLERS <br />Step B. After installing the Style 10 or <br />20 Mounting Plate over the sprinkler <br />threads, hand tighten the sprinkler into <br />the sprinkler fitting. <br />Step C. Tighten the sprinkler into the <br />sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type <br />7 Recessed Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. <br />Figure 6). With reference to Figure 1, <br />the W-Type 7 Recessed Sprinkler <br />Wrench is to be applied to the sprinkler <br />wrench flats. <br />Step D. After the ceiling has been in- <br />stalled or the finish coat has been ap- <br />plied, slide on the Style 10 or 20 Clo- <br />sure over the Series TY-FRB Sprinkler <br />and push the Closure over the Mount- <br />ing Plate until its flange comes in con- <br />tact with the ceiling <br />Care and <br />Maintenance <br />The Series TY-BFR Sprinklers must <br />be maintained and serviced in accord- <br />ance with the following instructions: <br />NOTES <br />Before closing a fire protection system <br />main control valve for maintenance <br />work on the fire protection system that <br />it controls, permission to shut down <br />the affected fire protection system <br />must be obtained from the proper <br />authorities and all personnel who may <br />be affected by this action must be no- <br />tified. <br />The owner must assure that the sprin- <br />klers are not used for hanging of any <br />objects; otherwise, non -operation in <br />the event of a fire or inadvertent opera- <br />tion may result. <br />Absence of an escutcheon, which is <br />used to cover a clearance hole, may <br />delay the time to sprinkler operation in <br />a fire situation. <br />Sprinklers that are found to be leaking <br />or exhibiting visible signs of corrosion <br />
