Series TY-B & TY-FRB, 10 mm Orifice, ISO 7-R 3/8
Upright, Pendent, and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
Standard and Quick Response
General
Description
The TYCO Series TY-B (5 mm Bulb) and
TY-FRB (3 mm Bulb), 10 mm orifice Up-
right and Pendent Sprinklers are auto-
matic sprinklers of the frangible bulb
type. They are spray sprinklers intend-
ed for use in fire sprinkler systems de-
signed in accordance with the installa-
tion rules recognized by the applicable
approval agency. Both the Upright and
Pendent Sprinklers produce a hemi-
spherical water distribution pattern be-
low the deflector.
The recessed version of the Series
TY-B and TY-FRB Pendent Sprinklers,
where applicable, are intended for use
in areas with a finished ceiling. They
use a two-piece Style 70 (3/8 inch NPT)
Recessed Escutcheon with 12 mm of
recessed adjustment or up to 20 mm of
total adjustment 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.
NOTICE
The Series TY-B and TY-FRB Sprin-
klers described herein must be installed
and maintained in compliance with this
document and with the applicable
standards recognized by the Approval
Agency, in addition to the standards of
any other authorities having jurisdiction.
Failure to do so may impair the perfor-
mance of these devices.
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 in-
stallation 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.

Operation

The glass Bulb contains a fluid that ex-
pands 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.
