Product Description
The Reliable Models JL14 and JL17 are Early Suppression
Fast Response (ESFR) Sprinklers with nominal K-factors of 14.0
(200 metric) and 16.8 (240 metric), respectively. The sprinklers
use a levered fusible alloy solder link in either a 165°F (74°C) or a
212°F (100°C) temperature rating. These sprinklers are designed
to respond quickly to growing fires and will deliver a heavy water
discharge to "suppress" rather than "control" fires.
FM Approvals classifies the Model JL14 and JL17 as quick-
response sprinklers, storage and non-storage, when used in
accordance with FM Global Property Loss Prevention Data
Sheets.
Model JL14 and JL17 ESFR sprinklers are designed to be shorter
and more compact than other ESFR sprinklers, allowing greater
flexibility with regard to distance from ceilings and obstructions.
The JL14 and JL17 ESFR sprinklers are also less susceptible to
damage due to smaller deflector and frame design. The lighter
JL14 and JL17 ESFR sprinklers passed rough use and abuse
listing tests without plastic protectors
