Upright and Pendent Intermediate Level Sprinklers
Standard Response
General
Description
The Series TY-L, 5.6 and 8.0 K-factor
Upright and Pendent Intermediate
Level Sprinklers described in this data
sheet are automatic sprinklers of the
"standard response" solder type. They
are "standard spray" sprinklers in-
tended for use in fire sprinkler systems
designed in accordance with the
standard installation rules recognized
by the applicable Listing or Approval
agency (e.g., UL Listing is based on
NFPA requirements). Both the Pen-
dent and Upright Sprinklers produce a
hemispherical water distribution pat-
tern below the deflector.
Intermediate Level Sprinklers are pri-
marily designed for use in rack storage
sprinkler systems where their ther-
mally sensitive elements must be
shielded from the water spray of higher
elevation sprinklers that could operate
earlier during a fire. Intermediate Level
Sprinklers are also used in other appli-
cations such as beneath open gridded
catwalks.
