Model ESFR-1
Early Suppression, Fast Response Pendent Sprinklers
14.0 K-factor
General
Description
The Tyco
®
Model ESFR-1 Pendent
Sprinklers are "Early Suppression,
Fast Response Sprinklers" having
a nominal K-factor of 14.0. They are
suppression-mode sprinklers that are
especially advantageous as a means
of eliminating the use of in-rack sprin-
klers
when
protecting
storage.
The Model ESFR-1 is primarily de-
signed for protection of the following
storage arrangements:
• Most encapsulated or non-encap-
sulated common materials including
cartoned, unexpanded plastics
• Some storage arrangements of
rubber tires, roll paper, flammable
liquids
For specific criteria, refer to the tables
in this data sheet as well as the appli-
cable design standard.
®
Applications for the Tyco
ESFR Sprin-
klers are expanding beyond currently
recognized installation standards. For
information on research fire tests (with
flammable liquids and aerosols, for ex-
ample) that may be acceptable to an
Authority Having Jurisdiction, contact
the Technical Services department.
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
Installation can permanently dam-
age 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.
