Product Description
Model RFC30 LL, RFC43 LL and RFC49 LL Concealed
Residential Sprinklers are fast response residential fusible
solder link automatic sprinklers. Residential sprinklers dif-
fer from standard sprinklers primarily in their response time
and water distribution patterns. Model RFC30 LL, RFC43
LL and RFC49 LL sprinklers discharge water in a hemi-
spherical pattern below the sprinkler deflector. Residen-
tial distribution patterns are higher and generally contain

Model RFC30 LL (SIN RA3211)
Model RFC43 LL (SIN RA3212)
Model RFC49 LL (SIN RA3216)
Residential Flat Concealed
Sprinklers
with
2
a finer droplet size than standard sprinkler patterns. The
combination of speed of operation and high discharge pat-
tern required for residential sprinklers has demonstrated,
in fire testing, an ability for controlling residential fires, and
thereby providing significant evacuation time for occu-
pants. The RFC30 LL, RFC43 LL and RFC49 LL Sprinklers
provide the best form of fire protection by combining an at-
tractive appearance and ½" (13mm) of cover adjustment
for ease of installation. The small diameter cover plate is
easily and positively attached and blends into the ceiling,
concealing the most dependable fire protection available,
an automatic sprinkler system. The RFC30 LL, RFC43 LL
and RFC49 LL are UL Listed and NSF Certified Residen-
tial Sprinklers to be installed in the residential "potable"
water applications of any occupancy in accordance with
NFPA 13, 13R, & 13D and meets all applicable low lead
standards, .25% or less. The cover plate adjustability of
the RFC30 LL, RFC43 LL and RFC49 LL can reduce the
need for precise cutting of drop nipples. The threaded
cover plate assembly can be adjusted without tools to fit
accurately against the ceiling. The fire protection system
need not be shut down to adjust or remove the cover plate
assembly.
