Quick c]utCK RESPONSE <br /> Response Sprinklers should be used advisedly and under the uPRI�HT CONVENTIONnL <br /> direction of approving authorities having jurisdiction. <br /> The heart of Globe's GL Series sprinkler proven actuating <br /> assembly is a hermetically sealed frangible glass ampule that <br /> contains a precisely measured amount of fluid. When heat is <br /> absorbed, the liquid within the bulb expands increasi,ig the internal <br /> pressure. At the prescribed temperature ihe interna! pressure <br /> within the ampule exceeds the strength of the glass causi� � the <br /> glass to shatter. This results in water discharge which is distribuled <br /> in an approved pattern depending upon the de(lector style used. qUICK RE PONs <br /> TECHNICAL DATA PENDEN7 VERTICAL <br /> •See reverse side for Approvals and Specifications. sioEwn�� <br /> .Temperature Ratings - 135°F (57°C), 155°F (68°C), <br /> 175°F (79°C), 200°F (93°C), 286°F (141°C) <br /> •Water Working Pressure Raling - 175 psi (12 Bars) <br /> •Factory tested hydrostatically to 500 psi (34 Bars) <br /> •Maximum low temperature glass bulb rating is -67"F (-55°C) QUICK RESPONSE <br /> •Frame - bronze • Deflector- brass • Screw- brass HORIZONTAL LPCI('E <br /> •Lodgement Wire - stainless steel • SIDEWALL HSIDIEWALLL <br /> •Bulb seat - copper • Spring - nickel alloy • Seal - teflon <br /> •Bulb - glass with alcohol based solution, 3mm size <br /> •SPRINKLER TEMPERATURE RATING/CLASSIFICATION and COLOR CODING <br /> CLASSIFICATION AVAILABLE SPRINKLER gULB COLOR N.F.P.A.
