<br />Series TY-FRB - 2.8, 4.2, 5.6, and 8.0 K-Factor
<br />Upright, Pendent, and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
<br />Quick Response, Standard Coverage
<br />General
<br />Description
<br />The TYCO Series TY-FRB 2.8, 4.2, 5.6,
<br />and 8.0 K-factor Upright, Pendent,
<br />and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
<br />described in herein are quick response,
<br />standard coverage, decorative 3 ram
<br />glass bulb -type spray sprinklers. They
<br />are designed for use in light or ordinary
<br />hazard, commercial occupancies such
<br />as banks, hotels, and shopping malls.
<br />The TY-FRB Recessed Pendent Sprin-
<br />kler, where applicable, is intended for
<br />use in areas with a finished ceiling. This
<br />recessed pendent sprinkler uses one of
<br />the following Recessed Escutcheons:
<br />• A two-piece Style 10 (1/2 in. NPT)
<br />or Style 40 (3/4 in. NPT) Recessed
<br />Escutcheon with 1/2 in. (12,7 mm) of
<br />recessed adjustment or up to 3/4 in.
<br />(19,1 mm) of total adjustment from
<br />the flush pendent position.
<br />• A two-piece Style 20 (1/2 in. NPT)
<br />or Style 30 (3/4 in. NPT) Recessed
<br />Escutcheon with 1/4 in. (6,4 mm) of
<br />recessed adjustment or up to 1/2 in.
<br />(12,7 mm) of total adjustment from
<br />the flush pendent position.
<br />The adjustment provided by the
<br />Recessed Escutcheon reduces the
<br />accuracyto which the fixed pipe drops
<br />to the sprinklers must be cut.
<br />Corrosion -resistant coatings, where
<br />applicable, are utilized to extend the
<br />life of copper alloy sprinklers beyond
<br />what would be obtained when exposed
<br />IMPORTANT
<br />Refer to Technical Data Sheet
<br />TFP2300 for wamings pertaining to
<br />regulatory and health information.
<br />Always refer to Technical Data
<br />Sheet TFP700 for the "INSTALLER
<br />WARNING" that provides cautions
<br />with respect to handling and instal-
<br />lation of sprinkler systems and com-
<br />ponents. Improper handling and
<br />installation can permanently damage
<br />a sprinkler system or its compo-
<br />nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
<br />to operate in a fire situation or cause
<br />it to operate prematurely.
<br />to corrosive atmospheres. Although
<br />corrosion -resistant coated sprinklers
<br />have passed the standard corrosion
<br />tests of the applicable approval agen-
<br />cies, the testing is not representative
<br />of all possible corrosive atmospheres.
<br />Consequently, it is recommended that
<br />the end user be consulted with respect
<br />to the suitability of these coatings for
<br />any given corrosive environment. The
<br />effects of ambient temperature, con-
<br />centration of chemicals, and gas/
<br />chemical velocity, should be consid-
<br />ered, as a minimum, along with the cor-
<br />rosive nature of the chemical to which
<br />the sprinklers will be exposed.
<br />An intermediate level version of the
<br />Series TY-FRB Pendent Sprinklers
<br />is detailed in Technical Data Sheet
<br />TFP356. Sprinkler Guards are detailed
<br />in Technical Data Sheet TFP780.
