Series TY-FRB — 5.6 K-factor
Horizontal and Vertical Sidewall Sprinklers
Quick Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
The Series TY-FRB, 5.6 K-factor, Hori-
zontal and Vertical Sidewall Sprinklers
described in this data sheet are quick
response -standard coverage, dec-
orative 3 mm glass bulb type spray
sprinklers designed for use in light and
ordinary hazard, commercial occu-
pancies such as banks, hotels, shop-
ping malls, etc. They are designed for
installation along a wall or the side of
a beam and just beneath a smooth
ceiling. Sidewall sprinklers are com-
monly used instead of pendent or
upright sprinklers due to aesthetics or
building construction considerations,
where piping across the ceiling is not
desirable.
The recessed version of the Series
TY-FRB Horizontal Sidewall Sprinkler
is intended for use in areas with a fin-
ished wall. It uses a two-piece Style
10 Recessed Escutcheon with 1/2 in.
(12,7 mm) of recessed adjustment or up
to 3/4 in. (19,1 mm) of total adjustment
from the flush sidewall position, or a
two-piece Style 20 Recessed Escutch-
eon with 1/4 in. (6,4 mm) of recessed
adjustment or up to 1/2 in. (12,7 mm)
of total adjustment from the flush side-
wall position. The adjustment provided
by the Recessed Escutcheon reduces
the accuracy to which the fixed pipe
nipples to the sprinklers must be cut.
Corrosion resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend the life

Refer to Technical Data Sheet
TFP2300 for warnings pertaining to
regulatory and health information.
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the "INSTALLER
WARNING" that provides cautions
with respect to handling and instal-
lation of sprinkler systems and com-
ponents. Improper handling and
installation can permanently damage
a sprinkler system or its compo-
nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.

of copper alloy sprinklers beyond that
which would otherwise be obtained
when exposed to corrosive atmo-
spheres. Although corrosion resistant
coated sprinklers have passed the
standard corrosion tests of the appli-
cable approval agencies, the testing is
not representative of all possible cor-
rosive atmospheres. Consequently,
it is recommended that the end user
be consulted with respect to the suit-
ability of these coatings for any given
corrosive environment. The effects of
ambient temperature, concentration of
chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity,
should be considered, as a minimum,
along with the corrosive nature of the
chemical to which the sprinklers will be
exposed.
