Product Description
The Reliable Model F1FR/CCP Quick Response
Concealed Sprinkler is an attractive, low profile
concealed sprinkler assembly.
assembly utilizes a Model F1FR pendent sprinkler in
a Model CCP cup and cover plate assembly. The cup
is securely factory threaded on the sprinkler inlet
end. The assembly is shipped with a protective cap.
The sprinkler and cup are easily installed into the
drop nipple using the Model RC1 Sprinkler Wrench.
The cover plate assembly is attached to the sprinkler
cup using a cover plate assembly with flexible tabs
for threaded engagement. Simply push on the cover
plate, then turn to adjust or remove the cover plate
assembly.
The cover plate is attached to the skirt using 135°F
(57°C) or 165°F (74°C) ordinary temperature classification
solder. When the ceiling temperature rises, the solder
holding the cover plate melts, allowing the release of this
part and thus exposing the Model F1FR sprinkler inside to
the rising ambient temperature.
