General
Description
TYCO Series TY-FRL 5.6K Horizon-
tal Sidewall Sprinklers (HSW), Quick
Response, Standard Coverage are sol-
der-type spray sprinklers designed for
use in light and ordinary hazard com-
mercial occupancies such as banks,
hotels, shopping malls, offices, etc.
They are designed for installation along
a wall or the side of a beam and just
beneath a smooth ceiling. Horizontal
sidewall sprinklers are commonly used
instead of pendent or upright sprin-
klers due to aesthetics or building con-
struction considerations, where piping
across the ceiling is not desirable.
NOTICE
The Series TY-FRL Sprinklers
described herein must be installed
and maintained in compliance with this
document, as well as with the applica-
ble standards of the National Fire Pro-
tection Association (NFPA), in addition
to the standards of any other authori-
ties having jurisdiction. Failure to do so
may impair the performance 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 fusible link (heat collector) assem-
bly is comprised of two halves that
are joined together by a thin layer of
solder. When the rated temperature is
reached, the solder melts and the two
link halves separate, allowing the sprin-
kler to operate.
Design
Criteria
TYCO Series TY-FRL 5.6K HSW Sprin-
klers, Quick Response, Standard
Coverage are intended for fire pro-
tection systems designed in accor-
dance with the standard installation
rules recognized by the applicable
listing or approval agency (e.g., UL
Listing is based on NFPA 13 require-
ments); however, the minimum dis-
tance between sprinklers to prevent
cold soldering is 8 ft (2,4 m). The
Series TY-FRL HSW Sprinklers
must be installed with a deflector-
to-ceiling distance of 4 in. to 6 in.
(100 mm to 150 mm). To meet this
requirement the centerline of the
sprinkler waterway must be located
4-5/16 in. to 6-5/16 in. (110 mm to
160 mm) below the ceiling. Installation
of the Series TY-FRL HSW Sprinklers
in recessed escutcheons will void all
manufacturer’s warranties, as well as
possibly void the sprinkler’s approvals
and/or listings.

Installation
TYCO Series TY-FRL 5.6K HSW Sprin-
klers, Quick Response, Standard Cov-
erage must be installed in accordance
with this section.
General Instructions
A leak-tight 1/2 in. NPT sprinkler joint
should be obtained with a torque of 7 to
14 lb-ft. (9,5 to 19,0 N·m). A maximum
of 21 lb-ft. (28,5 N·m) of torque may be
used to install sprinklers with 1/2 NPT
connections. Higher levels of torque
may distort the sprinkler inlet and
cause leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
Do not attempt to make-up for insuf-
ficient adjustment in the escutcheon
plate by under- or over-tightening the
sprinkler. Readjust the position of the
sprinkler fitting to suit.
Horizontal Sidewall Sprinklers
Note: The Series TY-FRL HSW Sprin-
klers must be installed with their cen-
terline of waterway parallel to the
ceiling and perpendicular to the back
wall surface. The word “TOP” on the
deflector must face upwards toward
the ceiling.
Step 1. After installing an escutcheon
(as applicable) over the sprinkler pipe
threads and with pipe thread sealant
applied to the pipe threads, hand
tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler
fitting.
Step 2. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
9 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 2).
With reference to Figure 1, the W-Type
9 Sprinkler Wrench is to be applied to
the wrench area.

must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
painted, plated, coated or otherwise
altered after leaving the factory. Modi-
fied or over-heated sprinklers must be
replaced.
Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the sprinklers before,
during, and after installation. Sprinklers
damaged by dropping, striking, wrench
twist/slippage, or the like, must be re
placed.
The owner is responsible for the
inspection, testing, and maintenance of
their fire protection system and devices
