Product Description
The Reliable Models JL-14 and JL-17 are Early Suppression
Fast Response (ESFR) Sprinklers with nominal K-factors of 14.0
(200 metric) and 16.8 (240 metric), respectively. The sprinklers
use a levered fusible alloy solder link in either a 165°F (74°C)
or a 212°F (100°C) temperature rating. These sprinklers are
designed to respond quickly to growing fires and will deliver a
heavy water discharge to "suppress" rather than "control" fires.
FM Approvals classifies the Model JL-14 and JL-17 as quick-
response sprinklers, storage and non-storage, when used in
accordance with FM Global Property Loss Prevention Data
Sheets.
The JL-14 and JL-17 sprinklers are available with 3/4" NPT or
ISO7-1R3/4 (BSPT) threads, and the JL-17 is also available with
the Victaulic® IGS™ Style V9 Sprinkler Coupling*.
Model JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers are designed to be
shorter and more compact than other ESFR sprinklers, allowing
greater flexibility with regard to distance from ceilings and
obstructions. The JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers are also
less susceptible to damage due to smaller deflector and frame
design. The lighter JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers passed
rough use and abuse listing tests without plastic protectors
