1. DESCRIPTION
Viking QREC Concealed Horizontal Sidewall Sprinkler VK680 is a small high-
sensitivity solder link and lever sprinkler designed for installation on concealed pipe
systems, where the appearance of a smooth wall is desired. The fast response
operating element and special flow shaper characteristics meet the challenges of
quick response extended coverage standards.
The sprinkler is hidden from view by a low profile, small diameter cover plate installed
flush to the wall. The cover plate is available in several decorative finishes to meet
design requirements. The two-piece design allows installation and testing of the
sprinkler prior to installation of the cover plate. After the system has been tested and
wall finish has been applied, the push-on design of the cover plate assembly allows
easy installation of the cover plate with up to 1/4" (6.4 mm) adjustment.
