ings table in this Bulletin for available temperature ratings.
Model F3QR80 Dry sprinklers are intended for installation
on wet-pipe, dry-pipe, or preaction sprinkler systems in ac-
cordance with NFPA 13.
Model F3QR80 Dry sprinklers are available with a vari-
ety of escutcheon options as illustrated in Figs. 1 through 3

dent sprinklers are also available with the Model CCP coni-
cal concealed cover plate as illustrated in Fig. 4. Available

eon, and Model CCP cover plate are the only recessed es-
