Model FSC 80 K-factor
Flush Sprinkler, Pendent
Quick Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
The TYCO Model FSC 80 K-factor
Flush Sprinkler is a quick response
standard coverage sprinkler designed
for use in areas such as offices, hos-
pitals, churches, schools, apartments,
and hotels.
For applications in poured concrete
ceiling/floor assemblies, a unique
Installation Cup is used to form the
recessed cavity into which the FSC
Sprinkler is installed.
For suspended ceiling applications, a
Dust Cap is used to protect the FSC
Sprinkler above the ceiling panel.
The flush design is made aesthetically
appealing by concealing the deflector
and other operating parts above the
Link Assembly. The FSC Sprinkler, with
a heat sensitive solder type release
element, is rated as a quick response
sprinkler.
