General
Description
The TYCO CPVC Hanger Head Set
Model SHB1 offers a time saving instal-
lation method for proper placement
of an automatic sprinkler before the
ceiling is installed.
The hanger head set is a re-designa-
tion for the Central Model SHB1 Hanger
Head Set.
The hanger head set in a side-mount
position, as shown in Figure 2, pro-
vides accurate vertical positioning of
the sprinkler thereby assuring a desir-
able uniform sprinkler deflector-to-ceil-
ing positioning of the sprinklers. Due to
the unique design of the Hanger Head
Set, “blocking” is not required to offset
the centerline of piping to accommo-
date the sprinkler escutcheon from the
side of the joist. With the fasteners pro-
vided, the hanger head set is intended
to be attached directly to the side of a
solid wood framing member or the side
of a structural composite wood joist of
minimum 3/8 in. thickness OSB (Ori-
ented Strand Board) web member or
equivalent.
Note: The TYCO CPVC Hanger Head
Set Model SHB1 is designed for use
with Johnson Controls “West Coast”
style Sprinkler Head Adapters.
For ordering information for the sprin-
kler head adapters, see the Ordering
Procedure section.
NOTICE
The TYCO CPVC Hanger Head Set
Model SHB1 described herein must
be installed and maintained in compli-
ance with this document and the appli-
cable standards of the NATIONAL FIRE
PROTECTION ASSOCIATION (NFPA),
in addition to the standards of any
authorities having jurisdiction. Failure
to do so may impair the performance
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.

Installation
The installation instructions for the
TYCO CPVC Hanger Head Set Model
SHB1 for different types of wood joist
are defined in the following sections:
• Hanger Head Set — Solid Wood
Joist
• Hanger Head Set — Composite
Wood Joist
NOTICE
The TYCO CPVC Hanger Head Set
Model SHB1 does not meet the UL
requirement for providing vertical
restraint that may result from a sprin-
kler activation. A number of hanger
techniques (not inclusive of the use
of a Hanger Head Set) as described
in Installation Handbook IH-1900 can
be used to provide vertical restraint.
Failure to provide vertical restraint may
result in vertical lift upon sprinkler acti-
vation and the inability of a sprinkler to
spray effectively in the event of a fire.
Installing sprinklers into the sprin-
kler adapter fittings prior to solvent
cementing the adapters to the drop is
unacceptable. Failure to allow sprin-
kler fitting joint to cure before install-
ing sprinklers may result in cement in
sprinkler waterway and inability of the
sprinkler to properly operate in the
event of a fire.
The hanger head set should not be
installed other than side-mount or
attached to anything other than the
side of a solid wood framing member
or structural composite wood joist, with
the fasteners provided, without prior
review and approval of the authority
having jurisdiction. Any other method
of installation may not comply with
NFPA or local requirements. If the
installer attaches the Hanger Head Set
to another type of structural member or
orients the Hanger Head Set in a posi-
tion other than side-mount, fasteners
and fastener methods shall comply
with applicable NFPA and local code
requirements.
Hanger Head Set - Solid Wood Joist

Step 4. Cut and install the CPVC sprin-
kler drop making sure the face of the
sprinkler head adapter is flush with the

the instructions provided in the tech-
nical data sheet for the sprinkler, and

against the composite wood joist web
member (side-mount).
Step 4. Set the depth using the grad-
uated markings of an offset gauge as
