INSTALLATION NOTES FOR THE STYLE ABBA
BRACKET
For floor-above-mount and cantilever-mount configurations: The Style ABBA Bracket
can be installed in wood or concrete block wall or ceiling applications. Victaulic does not
supply the screws for attaching the mounting plate to the wall or ceiling. The installing
contractor shall select screws that are suitable for the wall or ceiling material. Screws
shall be tightened until the mounting plate is in full contact with the wall or ceiling
surface.
For temporary fire protection configurations (1 1/2-inch/48.3-mm size sprinkler piping
only): The Style ABBA Bracket requires a U-bolt and two nuts for installation. Victaulic
does not supply the U-bolt and two nuts for securing the mounting plate to the sprinkler
piping. Place the U-bolt around the sprinkler piping, then insert the ends into the two
inner holes located on the Style ABBA Bracket's mounting plate, as shown above. Torque
each nut to 20 inch-lbs/2.3 N•m.
For all configurations: Refer to the applicable "Connection to Sprinkler Piping,"
"Connecting the Sprinkler Reducing Nipple to the Flexible Hose," and "Sprinkler
Installation" sections for sprinkler piping, sprinkler reducing nipple, and sprinkler
installation instructions.
