Series TY-FRB — 5.6 K-factor
Upright and Pendent Intermediate Level Sprinklers
Quick Response
General
Description
The Series TY-FRB, 5.6 K-factor Up-
right and Pendent Intermediate Level
Sprinklers described in this data sheet
are automatic sprinklers of the "quick
response" 3 mm frangible bulb type.
They are "standard spray" sprinklers
intended for use in fire sprinkler sys-
tems designed in accordance with the
standard installation rules recognized
by the applicable Listing or Approval
agency (e.g., UL Listing is based on
NFPA requirements). Both the Up-
right and Pendent Sprinklers produce
a hemispherical water distribution pat-
tern below the deflector.
Intermediate Level Sprinklers are pri-
marily designed for use in rack stor-
age sprinkler systems where their
thermally sensitive elements must be
shielded from the water spray of high-
er elevation sprinklers that could op-
erate earlier during a fire. Intermediate
Level Sprinklers are also used in oth-
er applications such as beneath open
gridded catwalks.
For additional Series TY-FRB Sprin-
kler information, see Technical Data
Sheet TFP172. For additional Guard
and Shield information, see Technical
Data Sheet TFP780.
NOTICE
The Series TY-FRB Sprinklers de-
scribed herein must be installed and
maintained in compliance with this

cable standards of the National Fire

nents and cause the sprinkler to fail

Operation
The glass bulb contains a fluid which
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
fluid expands sufficiently to shatter
the glass bulb, allowing the sprinkler
to activate and water to flow.
