Model ESFR-17
16.8 K-factor Pendent Sprinkler
Early Suppression, Fast Response
General
Description
TYCO Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprin-
klers are Early Suppression, Fast
Response (ESFR) sprinklers having a
nominal K-factor of 16.8 (See Figure 1).
They are suppression mode sprinklers
that are especially advantageous as a
means of eliminating in-rack sprinklers
when protecting high-piled storage.
The Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprinklers
are available in two temperature ratings
and Listed or Approved accordingly;
155°F (68°C) is UL and C-UL Listed
and FM Approval; and 200°F (93°C) is
UL and C-UL Listing only.
Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprinklers are
primarily used for ceiling-only sprinkler
protection of (but not limited to) the fol-
lowing storage applications:
• most encapsulated or non-encap-
sulated common materials including
cartoned, unexpanded plastics
• cartoned, expanded plastics
• uncartoned, unexpanded plastics
• uncartoned, expanded plastics
• some storage arrangements of
rubber tires, roll paper, and aerosols
For more specific criteria, refer to Table
A in this technical data sheet as well as
the applicable design standard.
The Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprin-
klers provide the system designer
with hydraulic and sprinkler place-
IMPORTANT
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.

ment options not presently available
to traditional ESFR Sprinklers having
a nominal K-factor of 14.0. In particu-
lar, Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprinklers
are designed to operate at substan-
tially lower-end head pressures, as
compared to ESFR Sprinklers having
a nominal K-factor of 14.0. This feature
offers flexibility when sizing system
piping, as well as possibly reducing or
eliminating the need for a system fire
pump.
Applications for the ESFR-17 Pendent
Sprinklers are expanding beyond cur-
rently recognized installation stan-
dards. For information on research fire
tests (with flammable liquids and aero-
sols, for example) that may be accept-
able to an authority having jurisdiction,
contact Technical Services.
WARNING
Orange protector must NOT be
removed until sprinkler is to be placed
in service. The W-Type 35 Sprinkler
Wrench MUST be used for proper
installation of the sprinkler. Failure to
do so may result in equipment damage
or failure.
NOTICE
The Model ESFR-17 Pendent Sprinklers
described herein must be installed and
maintained in compliance with this
document, as well as with the appli-
cable standards of the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), in addi-
tion to the standards of any authorities
having jurisdiction, such as FM Global.
Failure to do so may impair the perfor-
mance of these devices.
The owner is responsible for main-
taining their fire protection system
and devices in proper operating con-
dition. Contact the installing contrac-
tor or product manufacturer with any
questions.
In all cases, the appropriate NFPA or
FM Global installation standard, or
