General Description
The Model RD107 Commercial Flat Concealed Sprinklers are automatic
sprinklers of the compressed fusible solder type. These are decorative and fast
response. The frame of the sprinkler hides the deflector, gasket, etc., which is in turn
concealed above the ceiling by the cover plate assembly. The cover plate has a flat
profile, and its diameter is extremely small. The push-on/thread-on, thread-off design
of the concealed cover plate assembly allows easy installation of the cover plate.
Therefore, the Model RD107 should be your first choice when aesthetics is
the major consideration for ultimate appeal and unbeatable performance is desired.
They are to be used in wet pipe sprinkler systems per EN12845 or as required by
the Authority having jurisdiction.
The Model RD107 has a 80(5.6) K-factor. For extended installation flexibility, the Model RD107
provides 9.0mm (3/8 inch) vertical adjustment. This adjustment in installation decreases the need for precise cutting of
the pipe that drops to the sprinkler and allows for a perfect fit with a range of pipe lengths. The heat sensitivity and water
distribution design of Model RD107 allows for an increased chance of occupants' escape or evacuation in case
of fire. However, fire sprinkler systems are not a substitute for fire safety awareness or fire safety construction required
by building codes.
Warnings

compliance with the applicable standards of the National Fire Protection Association regulations and the standards of
any other authorities having jurisdiction.
