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.
