Pendent and Horizontal Sidewall Sprinklers
Quick Response, Standard and Extended Coverage
General
Description
®
The Tyco RAVEN™ Institutional Pen-
dent and Horizontal Sidewall Sprin-
klers are quick response spray sprin-
klers designed for use in areas such
as correctional, detention, and mental
health care facilities, as well as other
commercial buildings. Both the pen-
dent and horizontal sidewall styles
are available for standard or extended
coverage applications.
Features:
• The RAVEN assembly increases
the difficulty of tampering with the
sprinkler that may cause a false
activation.
• The tamper resistant nature of the
RAVEN helps reduce the opportu-
nity for individuals to injure them-
selves or others with components of
a fire sprinkler.
• The RAVEN optimizes an aestheti-
cally appealing flush design that
conceals all of the operating parts.
