General
Description
The TYCO ILLUSION, 11.2 K-factor,
Extra Large Orifice Concealed Pendent
Sprinklers quick, response, standard
coverage, are decorative, fast response
solder type sprinklers featuring a flat
cover plate designed to conceal the
sprinkler. When limited water pres-
sure is available and a higher applied
water density is necessary, the ILLU-
SION sprinkler is the best choice for
architecturally sensitive areas such as
casinos, hotel lobbies, office buildings,
churches, and restaurants.
Each unit includes a cover plate assem-
bly that conceals the sprinkler operat-
ing components above the ceiling. The
separable two-piece design of the
cover plate and support cup Assem-
blies allows installation of the sprin-
klers and pressure testing of the fire
protection system prior to installation
of a suspended ceiling or application
of the finish coating to a fixed ceiling.
They also permit removal of suspended
ceiling panels for access to build-
ing service equipment without having
to first shut down the fire protection
system and remove sprinklers.
Also, the separable two-piece design
of the sprinkler provides for 3/4 in.
(19,1 mm) of vertical adjustment to
provide a measure of flexibility with
regard to which the length of fixed pipe
drops to the sprinklers must be cut.
The ILLUSION sprinklers are shipped
with a disposable protective cap. The
protective cap is temporarily removed
for installation, and it can be replaced
to help protect the sprinkler while the
ceiling is being installed or finished. The
tip of the protective cap can also be
used to mark the center of the ceiling
hole into plaster board, ceiling tiles, etc.
by gently pushing the ceiling product
against the protective cap. When the
ceiling installation is complete, the pro-
tective cap is removed and the cover
plate assembly installed.

As an option, the ILLUSION pendent
sprinklers may be fitted with a silicone
air and dust seal as shown in Figure 4.
The air and dust seal is intended for
sensitive areas where it is desirable
to stop air and dust travel through the
cover plate from the area above the
ceiling.
