Upright and Pendent Intermediate
Level Sprinklers described in this data
sheet are automatic sprinklers of the
"quick response" 3 mm frangible bulb
type. They are "standard spray" sprin-

the Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
produce a hemispherical water distri-
bution pattern below the deflector.
Intermediate Level Sprinklers are pri-
marily designed for use in rack storage
sprinkler systems where their thermally
sensitive elements must be shielded
from the water spray of higher ele-
vation sprinklers that could operate
earlier during a fire. Intermediate Level
Sprinklers are also used in other appli-
cations such as beneath open gridded
catwalks.
