Series TY-FRL — 5.6 and 8.0 K-factor
Extended Coverage Horizontal Sidewall Sprinklers
Quick & Standard Response (Light Hazard)
General
Description
The Series TY-FRL, 5.6, and 8.0
K-factor, Extended Coverage Hori-
zontal Sidewall Sprinklers are solder
type spray sprinklers designed for use
in hydraulically calculated sprinkler
systems in light hazard, commercial
occupancies such as churches, res-
taurant seating areas, hotels, educa-
tional facilities, offices, etc. With their
coverage up to 16 ft (4,9 m) wide by 24
ft (7,3 m) long, they are designed for
installation along a wall or the side of a
beam and just beneath a smooth, flat,
horizontal ceiling. Horizontal sidewall
sprinklers are commonly used instead
of pendent or upright sprinklers due
to aesthetics or building construction
considerations where piping across the
ceiling is not desirable.
The fast response thermal sensitivity
rating of the Series TY-FRL provides
for a quick response extended cover-
age (QREC) rating for many of the cov-
erage areas detailed in Tables B and C.

Operation
The fusible link (heat collector) assem-
bly is comprised of two halves that
are joined together by a thin layer of
solder. When the rated temperature is
reached, the solder melts and the two
link halves separate, allowing the sprin-
kler to operate.
Design
Criteria
The Series TY-FRL Extended Coverage
Horizontal Sidewall Sprinklers must be
installed and utilized in Light Hazard
Occupancies, under smooth, flat, hori-
zontal ceilings as outlined in the appli-
cable installation standard recognized
by the Approval Agency (e.g., UL rec-
ognizes NFPA 13, and FM recognizes
the FM Loss Prevention Data Sheets).
Installation of the Series TY-FRL Hori-
zontal Sidewall Sprinklers in recessed
escutcheons will void all manufac-
turer's warranties, as well as possibly
void the sprinkler's Approvals and/or
Listings.
