Product Description
Reliable Model F1FR series sprinklers
are quick-response automatic sprin-
klers with a glass bulb thermal element.
Model F1FR series sprinklers are Stan-
dard Spray sprinklers, with the excep-
tion of the Model F1FR56 Conventional
sprinkler which is an Old-style/Conven-
tional sprinkler.
The Model F1FR Series automatic sprinklers utilize a 3.0
mm frangible glass bulb. These sprinklers have demonstrat-
ed response times in laboratory tests which are five to ten
times faster than standard response sprinklers. This quick
response enables the Model F1FR Series sprinklers to apply
water to a fire faster than standard-response sprinklers of the
same temperature rating.
The glass bulb consists of an accurately controlled amount
of special fluid hermetically sealed inside a precisely man-
ufactured glass capsule. This glass bulb is specially con-
structed to provide fast thermal response.
