IMPORTANT
Refer to Technical Data Sheet
TFP2300 for warnings pertaining to
regulatory and health information.
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the “INSTALLER
WARNING” that provides cautions
with respect to handling and instal-
lation of sprinkler systems and com-
ponents. Improper handling and
installation can permanently damage
a sprinkler system or its compo-
nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.

General
Description
The TYCO Series TY-B (5 mm Bulb)
and TY-FRB (3 mm Bulb), 10 mm
orifice Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
are automatic sprinklers of the fran-
gible bulb type. They are spray sprin-
klers intended for use in fire sprinkler
systems designed in accordance with
the installation rules recognized by
the applicable approval agency. Both
the Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
produce a hemispherical water distri-
bution pattern below the deflector.
The recessed version of the Series
TY-B and TY-FRB Pendent Sprinklers,
where applicable, are intended for use
in areas with a finished ceiling. They
use a two-piece Style 70 (3/8 inch NPT)
Recessed Escutcheon with 12 mm of
recessed adjustment or up to 20 mm of
total adjustment from the flush pendent
position. The adjustment provided by
the Recessed Escutcheon reduces the
accuracy to which the fixed pipe drops
to the sprinklers must be cut.
NOTICE
The Series TY-B and TY-FRB Sprinklers
described herein must be installed
and maintained in compliance with
this document and with the applicable
standards recognized by the Approval
Agency, in addition to the standards of
any other authorities having jurisdiction.
Failure to do so may impair the perfor-
mance of these devices.
The owner is responsible for main-
taining their fire protection system
and devices in proper operating con-
dition. Contact the installing contrac-
tor or product manufacturer with any
questions.

Operation
The glass Bulb contains a fluid that
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
fluid expands sufficiently to shatter the
glass Bulb, allowing the sprinkler to
activate and water to flow.
Design
Criteria
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
10 mm Orifice Pendent and Upright
Sprinklers are intended for fire protec-
tion systems designed in accordance
with the standard installation rules
recognized by the applicable approval
agency. Only the Style 70 Escutcheon
is to be used for recessed pendent
installation.

Installation
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
Sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance with this section.
General Instructions
Do not install any bulb-type sprinkler
if the bulb is cracked or there is a loss
of liquid from the bulb. With the sprin-
kler held horizontally, a small air bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1/16 in.
(1,6 mm) for the 135°F (57°C) to 3/32 in.
(2,4 mm) for the 360°F (182°C) tempera-
ture ratings.
Do not attempt to compensate for
insufficient adjustment in the Escutch-
eon Plate by under- or over-tightening
the sprinkler. Re-adjust the position of
the sprinkler fitting to suit.
A leak-tight ISO 7-R 3/8 sprinkler joint
should be obtained by applying a
minimum to maximum torque of 8 to 16
N∙m. Higher levels of torque can distort
the sprinkler Inlet with consequent
leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.
The Series TY-B and TY-FRB Pendent
and Upright Sprinklers must be
installed in accordance with the fol-
lowing instructions.
Step 1. Pendent sprinklers are to be
installed in the pendent position, and
upright sprinklers are to be installed in
the upright position.
Step 2. With pipe-thread sealant
applied to the pipe threads, hand-
tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler
fitting.
Step 3. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type 6
Sprinkler Wrench (Figure 4). With refer-
ence to Figure 1, the W-Type 6 Sprinkler
Wrench is to be applied to the sprinkler
wrench flats.

Care and
Maintenance
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
must be maintained and serviced in
accordance with this section.
NOTICE
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance work
on the fire protection system that it con-
trols, obtain permission to shut down
the affected fire protection system
from the proper authorities and notify
all personnel who may be affected by
this action.
Absence of an escutcheon, which is
used to cover a clearance hole, can
delay the time to sprinkler operation in
a fire situation.
Sprinklers that are found to be leaking
or exhibiting visible signs of corrosion
must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
painted, plated, coated or other-
wise altered after leaving the factory.
Modified sprinklers must be replaced.
Sprinklers that have been exposed to
corrosive products of combustion, but
have not operated, should be replaced
if they cannot be completely cleaned
by wiping the sprinkler with a cloth or
by brushing it with a soft bristle brush.
Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the sprinklers before,
during, and after installation. Sprin-
klers damaged by dropping, striking,
wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must
be replaced. Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb. Refer to the Instal-
lation section for additional information.
The owner is responsible for the inspec-
tion, testing, and maintenance of their
fire protection system and devices in
compliance with this document, as well
as with the applicable standards of the
NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSO-
CIATION (e.g., NFPA 25), in addition to
the standards of any other authorities
having jurisdiction. Contact the install-
ing contractor or sprinkler manufac-
turer regarding any questions.
Automatic sprinkler systems are rec-
ommended to be inspected, tested,
and maintained by a qualified Inspec-
tion Service in accordance with local
requirements and/or national codes.
