glass bulb. The glass bulb consists of an accurately con-
trolled amount of special fluid hermetically sealed inside
of a precisely manufactured glass capsule. This glass
bulb is specially constructed to provide fast thermal re-
sponse.

At normal temperatures, the glass bulb contains the
fluid in both the liquid phase and in the vapor phase. The
vapor phase can be seen as a small bubble. As heat is
applied, the liquid expands forcing the bubble smaller
and smaller as the liquid pressure increases. Continued
heating forces the liquid to push out against the bulb,
causing the glass to shatter, opening the waterway and
allowing the deflector to distribute the discharging wa-
ter.
The F1 LO Sprinkler temperature rating is identified by
the color of the glass bulb capsule as well as frame color
where applicable.
