Installations per VdS CEA 4001, Annex E, LH/OH1
Page 1 of 6 MARCH 2014 TFP288
IMPORTANT
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the “INSTALLER
WARNING” that provides cau-
tions with respect to handling
and installation of sprinkler sys-
tems and components. Improp-
er handling and installation can
permanently damage a sprin-
kler system or its components
and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.
General
Description
The Model EC-HS, 80 K-factor, Ex-
tended Coverage Horizontal Sidewall
Sprinklers are extended coverage,
decorative 3 mm glass bulb type spray
sprinklers. They are to be installed per
VdS CEA 4001 under smooth ceil-
ings in Light or Ordinary Hazard 1, as
well as in accordance with Annex E of
VdS CEA 4001 (e.g., commercial oc-
cupancies such as churches, restau-
rant seating areas, hotels, educational
facilities, offices, etc.). With their cov-
erage up to 21 m2, they are designed
for installation along a wall or the side
of a beam and just beneath a smooth
and level ceiling. Horizontal sidewall
sprinklers are commonly used instead
of pendent or upright sprinklers due
to aesthetics or building construction
considerations, where piping across
the ceiling is not desirable.
The recessed version of the Model
EC-HS Extended Coverage Horizon-
tal Sidewall Sprinkler utilizes the Style
10 Recessed Escutcheon with 13 mm
of recessed adjustment or up to 19
mm of total adjustment from the flush
sidewall position, or a two-piece Style
20 Recessed Escutcheon with 6 mm
of recessed adjustment or up to 13
mm of total adjustment from the flush
sidewall position. The adjustment pro-
vided by the Recessed Escutcheon
reduces the accuracy to which the
fixed pipe lengths to the sprinklers
must be cut.
NOTICE
The Model EC-HS Sprinklers de-
scribed herein must be installed and
maintained in compliance with this
document and with the applicable
standards recognized by the Approval
agency (VdS recognizes VdS EA4001),
in addition to the standards of any oth-
er authorities having jurisdiction. Fail-
ure to do so may impair the perfor-
mance of these devices.
The owner is responsible for maintain-
ing their fire protection system and
devices in proper operating condition.
The installing contractor or sprinkler
manufacturer should be contacted
with any questions.

Operation
The glass bulb contains a fluid which
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.

Installation
The Model EC-HS Sprinklers must
be installed in accordance 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 bub-
ble should be present. The diameter
of the air bubble is approximately 1,6
mm.
A 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint should
be obtained with a minimum to maxi-
mum torque of 9,5 to 19,0 Nm. Higher
levels of torque may distort the sprin-
kler inlet and cause leakage or impair-
ment of the sprinkler.
Do not attempt to make-up for insuf-
ficient adjustment in the escutcheon
plate by under- or over-tightening the
sprinkler. Re-adjust the position of the
sprinkler fitting to suit.
Series Model EC-HS Sidewall
Sprinklers
The Series Model EC-HS Sidewall
Sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance with the following instructions.
Step 1. Horizontal sidewall sprinklers
are to be installed with their center-
line perpendicular to the back wall and
parallel to the ceiling. The word “TOP”
on the deflector is to face towards the
ceiling.
Step 2. With pipe thread sealant ap-
plied 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 (Ref. Figure 2).
With reference to Figures 1, the W-
Type 6 Sprinkler Wrench is to be ap-
plied to the sprinkler wrench flats.
Series Model EC-HS Recessed
Sidewall Sprinklers
The Model EC-HS Recessed Sidewall
Sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance with the following instructions.
Step A. Horizontal sidewall sprinklers
are to be installed with their center-
line perpendicular to the back wall and
parallel to the ceiling. The word “TOP”
on the deflector is to face towards the
ceiling.
Step B. After installing the Style 10
or 20 Mounting Plate, as applicable,
over the sprinkler threads and with
pipe thread sealant applied to the pipe
threads, hand tighten the sprinkler into
the sprinkler fitting.
Step C. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
7 Recessed Sprinkler Wrench (Ref.
Figure 3). With reference to Figure
1, the W-Type 7 Recessed Sprinkler
Wrench is to be applied to the sprin-
kler wrench flats.
Step D. After the wall has been in-
stalled or the finish coat has been ap-
plied, slide on the Style 10 or 20 Clo-
sure over the Model EC-HS Sprinkler
and push the Closure over the Mount-
ing Plate until its flange comes in con-
tact with the wall.
Care and
Maintenance
The Model EC-HS Sprinklers must
be maintained and serviced in accor-
dance with this section.
Before closing a fire protection sys-
tem main control valve for mainte-
nance work on the fire protection sys-
tem that it controls, permission to shut
down the affected fire protection sys-
tem must be obtained from the prop-
er authorities and all personnel who
may be affected by this action must
be notified.
The owner must assure that the sprin-
klers are not used for hanging of any
objects; otherwise, non-operation in
the event of a fire or inadvertent op-
eration may result.
Absence of an escutcheon, which is
used to cover a clearance hole, may
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 dam-
age to the sprinklers - before, during,
and after installation. Sprinklers dam-
aged 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. (Ref. Installa-
tion Section).
The owner is responsible for the in-
spection, testing, and maintenance
of their fire protection system and de-
vices in compliance with this docu-
ment, as well as with the applicable
standards of the authorities having ju-
risdiction. The installing contractor or
sprinkler manufacturer should be con-
tacted relative to any questions.
It is recommended that automatic
sprinkler systems be inspected, test-
ed, and maintained by a qualified In-
spection Service in accordance with
local requirements and/or national
codes.
