Series TY-FRL – 5.6 K-factor
Horizontal Sidewall Sprinkler
Quick Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
TYCO Series TY-FRL 5.6K Horizon-
tal Sidewall Sprinklers (HSW), Quick
Response, Standard Coverage are sol-
der-type spray sprinklers designed for
use in light and ordinary hazard com-
mercial occupancies such as banks,
hotels, shopping malls, offices, etc.
They are designed for installation along
a wall or the side of a beam and just
beneath a smooth ceiling. Horizontal
sidewall sprinklers are commonly used
instead of pendent or upright sprin-
klers due to aesthetics or building con-
struction considerations, where piping
across the ceiling is not desirable.

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
TYCO Series TY-FRL 5.6K HSW Sprin-
klers, Quick Response, Standard
Coverage are intended for fire pro-
tection systems designed in accor-
dance with the standard installation
rules recognized by the applicable
listing or approval agency (e.g., UL
Listing is based on NFPA 13 require-
ments); however, the minimum dis-
tance between sprinklers to prevent
cold soldering is 8 ft (2,4 m). The
Series T Y-FRL HSW Sprinklers
must be installed with a deflector-
to-ceiling distance of 4 in. to 6 in.
(100 mm to 150 mm). To meet this
requirement the centerline of the
sprinkler waterway must be located
4-5/16 in. to 6-5/16 in. (110 mm to
160 mm) below the ceiling. Installation
of the Series TY-FRL HSW Sprinklers
in recessed escutcheons will void all
manufacturer's warranties, as well as
possibly void the sprinkler's approvals
and/or listings.
