General
Description
TYCO Series DS-ECC Dry Type Sprin-
klers, 5.6K Pendent Concealed, Quick
Response (3 mm Bulb), Extended Cov-
erage (TY3539), are decorative bulb-
type sprinklers featuring a flat cover
plate designed to conceal the sprinkler.
This type of sprinkler is typically used
to provide a sprinkler drop from an
unheated attic into an area where aes-
thetics is a concern, such as nursing
homes, restaurants, and schools.
They are intended for use in auto-
matic sprinkler systems designed in
accordance with standard installation
rules, for example, NFPA 13. The fast
response thermal sensitivity rating of
Series DS-ECC Dry Type Sprinklers
(TY3539) provides for a quick response
extended coverage (QREC) rating up to
an 18 ft x 18 ft coverage area.
Each unit includes a Cover Plate
Assembly that conceals the sprin-
kler operating components above
the ceiling. The separable two-piece
design of the Cover Plate and Support
Cup Assemblies allows installation of
the sprinklers and pressure testing
of the fire protection system prior to
installation of a suspended ceiling or
application of the finish coating to a
fixed ceiling. They also permit removal
of suspended ceiling panels for access
to building service equipment without
having to first shut down the fire pro-
tection system and remove sprinklers.
Also, the separable two-piece design
of the Sprinkler provides for 1/2 in.
(12,7 mm) of vertical adjustment.
Each Series DS-ECC Dry Type Sprin-
kler is shipped with a Disposable Pro-
tective Cap. The Protective Cap is
temporarily removed for installation,
and then it can be replaced to help
protect the sprinkler while the ceiling
is being installed or finished. The tip of
the Protective Cap can also be used to
mark the center of the ceiling hole into
plaster board and ceiling tiles by gently
pushing the ceiling product against the
Protective Cap. When the ceiling instal-
