Issue D Quartzoid
High Temperature, Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
Standard Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
The Issue D, 5.6 and 8.0 K-factor,
Upright and Pendent Sprinklers de-
scribed in this data sheet are standard
response - standard coverage, 11 mm
glass bulb type spray sprinklers de-
signed for use in light, ordinary, or
extra hazard, commercial occupan-
cies where high ambient temperatures
may be encountered.
Corrosion resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend the
life of copper alloy sprinklers beyond
that which would otherwise be ob-
tained when exposed to corrosive at-
mospheres. Although corrosion resis-
tant 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 suitability
of these coatings for any given corro-
sive environment. The effects of ambi-
ent temperature, concentration of
chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity,
should be considered, as a minimum,
along with the corrosive nature of the
chemical to which the sprinklers will be
exposed.
WARNINGS
The Issue D Sprinklers described
IMPORTANT
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the "INSTALLER
WARNING" that provides cautions
with respect to handling and instal-
lation of sprinkler systems and com-
ponents. Improper handling and in-
stallation can permanently damage
a sprinkler system or its compo-
nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.
