Sprinklers for Corridors and Hallways
of Light Hazard Occupancies are dec-
orative, 3 mm bulb-type sprinklers
featuring a flat cover plate designed
to conceal the sprinkler. These sprin-
klers are specifically designed for use
in long, narrow spaces such as corri-
dors or hallways with a maximum cov-
erage area of 28 ft by 10 ft (8,5 m x 3,1
m). Fewer sprinklers and lower system
pressure demands are required as
compared to the traditional extended
coverage sprinklers.
The Series RFII-C sprinklers are
intended for use in automatic sprin-
kler systems designed in accor-
dance with standard installation rules
such as NFPA 13. The fast-response
thermal sensitivity rating of the Series
RFII-C sprinkler provides for a Quick
Response, Extended Coverage (QREC)
rating up to a 28 ft x 10 ft (8,5 m x
3,1 m) maximum coverage area.
Each sprinkler includes a cover plate/
retainer assembly and a sprinkler/
support cup assembly. The separable,
two-piece assembly design provides
the following benefits:
• Allows installation of the sprinklers
and pressure testing of the fire pro-

a suspended ceiling or application of
the finish coating to a fixed ceiling.
• Permits the removal of suspended
ceiling panels for access to building
service equipment without having
to first shut down the fire protection
system and remove sprinklers.
• Provides for 1/2 in. (12,7 mm) of ver-
tical adjustment to allow a measure
of flexibility in determining the length
of fixed piping to cut for the sprin-
kler drops.
The Series RFII-C sprinklers are
shipped with a disposable protective
cap. The protective cap is temporar-
ily removed during installation and
replaced to help protect the sprinkler
during ceiling installation or finish. The
tip of the protective cap can be used to
mark the center of the ceiling hole into
plaster board or ceiling tiles by gently
pushing the ceiling product against the
protective cap. When ceiling installa-
tion is complete, the protective cap is
removed and the cover plate/retainer
assembly is installed.
