General
Description
The Series TY-FRL, 2.8, 5.6, and 8.0
K-factor, Upright and Pendent Sprin-
klers described in this data sheet are
quick response - standard coverage,
solder type spray sprinklers designed
for use in light and ordinary hazard,
commercial occupancies such as
banks, hotels, shopping malls,
schools, hospitals, etc.
The recessed version of the 2.8 and
5.6 K-factor, Series TY-FRL Pendent
Sprinkler, where applicable, is in-
tended for use in areas with a finished
ceiling. It uses a two-piece Style 20
(1/2 inch NPT) Recessed Escutcheon.
The Recessed Escutcheon provides
1/4 inch (6,4 mm) of recessed adjust-
ment or up to 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) of
total adjustment from the flush pen-
dent position. The adjustment provided
by the Recessed Escutcheon reduces
the accuracy to which the fixed pipe
drops to the sprinklers must be cut
An intermediate level version of the 5.6
and 8.0 K-factor, Series TY-FRL Pen-
dent Sprinkler can be obtained by util-
izing the Series TY-FRL Pendent
Sprinkler in combination with the
Model S4 Shield.
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.
