Quick Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
The TYCO Series TY-FRB, 5.6 K-factor,
Upright (TY313) and Pendent (TY323)
Sprinklers described in this data sheet
are quick response, standard coverage,
decorative 3 mm glass bulb-type spray
sprinklers designed for use in light or
ordinary hazard, commercial occupan-
cies such as banks, hotels, and shop-
ping malls.
The recessed version of the Series TY-
FRB Pendent Sprinkler, where applica-
ble, is intended for use in areas with a
finished ceiling. This recessed pendent
sprinkler uses one of the following:
• A two-piece Style 15 Recessed
Escutcheon with recessed adjust-
ment up to 5/8 inch (15,9 mm) from
the flush pendent position.
• A two-piece Style 20 Recessed
Escutcheon with recessed adjust-
ment up to 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) from
the flush pendent position.
The adjustment provided by the
Recessed Escutcheon reduces the
accuracy to which the fixed pipe drops
to the sprinklers must be cut.
Intermediate level versions of Series
TY-FRB Sprinklers are described in
Technical Data Sheet TFP357. Sprin-
kler guards and shields are described
in Technical Data Sheet TFP780.
IMPORTANT
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 dam-
age 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.
