Description
The TYCO Series TY-L, 5.6 and
8.0 K-factor, Upright, Pendent,
and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
described in this data sheet are stan-
dard response, standard coverage,
solder type spray sprinklers designed

hazard, commercial occupancies such
as banks, hotels, shopping malls, fac-
tories, refineries, chemical plants, etc.
The recessed version of the Series
TY-L Pendent Sprinkler, where appli-
cable, is intended for use in areas with
a finished ceiling. It uses a two-piece
Style 20 (1/2 inch NPT) or Style 30 (3/4
inch NPT) Recessed Escutcheon. The
Recessed Escutcheon provides 1/4 in.
(6,4 mm) of recessed adjustment or up
to 1/2 in. (12,7 mm) of total adjustment
from the flush pendent position. The
adjustment provided by the Recessed
Escutcheon reduces the accuracy to
which the fixed pipe drops to the sprin-
klers must be cut.
Corrosion resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend the life
of copper alloy sprinklers beyond that
which would otherwise be obtained
when exposed to corrosive atmo-
spheres. Although corrosion resistant
coated sprinklers have passed the
standard corrosion tests of the appli-
cable approval agencies, the testing is
not representative of all possible cor-
rosive atmospheres. Consequently,
it is recommended that the end user
be consulted with respect to the suit-
ability of these coatings for any given
IMPORTANT

Sheet TFP700 for the "INSTALLER

nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
