Description
The Central Model WS™ Window
Sprinkler is the first sprinkler ever to
be specifically Listed to provide
protection for heat strengthened or
tempered glass windows using
closed sprinklers. As part of the
testing, the gas flow required to
achieve the time/temperature
relationship specified in ASTM E119
was maintained for two hours and
the window maintained integrity
without visible damage or cracking.
These sprinklers were tested in
accordance with the Canadian
Construction Materials Centre
Technical Guide for Sprinkler
Protected Glazing Systems. The
Model WS™ is the only listed option
to protect the integrity of an interior
window.
The Model WS™ Window Sprin-
klers incorporate specially designed
deflectors that ensure that the spray
pattern wets the entire surface of the
window.
The Window Sprinkler can be
used as interior protection of win-
dows or glazing in a sprinklered
building or non sprinklered building.
Also, the Model WS™ can be used
as an exterior sprinkler for exposure
protection.
The Model WS™ is a quick
response pendent or sidewall
sprinkler that is available in either
155°F or 200°F. As with any
specific application sprinkler, follow
the installation instructions included
in this data sheet.
™
Note: If NES and CCMC guide-
lines apply, consult the specific
approval report.
The Model WS™ is available in
three standard finishes, brass,
chrome plated and white painted.
