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.
Installation
The Series TY-B Sprinklers must
be installed in accordance with this
section.
General Instructions
Do not install any bulb type sprinkler
if the bulb is cracked or there is a loss
of liquid from the bulb. With the sprin-
kler held horizontally, a small air bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1,6 mm for
the 57°C to 2,4 mm for the 141°C tem-
perature ratings.
A leak tight 1/2 in. NPT sprinkler joint
should be obtained with a torque of
9 to 19 N∙m. A leak tight 3/4 in. NPT
sprinkler joint should be obtained with
a torque of 13 to 27 N∙m. Higher levels
of torque may distort the sprinkler inlet
and cause leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
