Operation
When TYCO Series DS-1 Stainless
Steel Dry-Type Sprinklers, 5.6K Pen-
dent, Horizontal Sidewall (HSW), and
Extended Coverage HSW, Standard
(5 mm bulb) and Quick (3 mm bulb)
Response are in service, water is pre-
vented from entering the assembly by
the Plug with Sealing Assembly in the
Inlet of the sprinkler. Refer to Figures 1
through 3.
The glass bulb contains a uid that
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
uid expands sufciently to shatter
the glass bulb then release the Bulb
Seat.
The compressed Spring is then able
to expand and push the Water Tube as
well as the Guide Tube outward. This
outward action simultaneously pulls
inward on the Yoke, withdrawing the
Plug with Sealing Assembly from the
Inlet and allowing the sprinkler to acti-
vate and ow water effectively.

TYCO Series DS-1 Stainless Steel Dry-
Type Sprinklers, 5.6K Pendent, Hori-
zontal Sidewall (HSW), and Extended
Coverage HSW, Standard (5 mm bulb)
and Quick (3 mm bulb) Response are
intended for use in re sprinkler sys-
tems designed in accordance with the
standard installation rules recognized
by the applicable Listing or Approval
agency (e.g., UL Listing is based on
NFPA 13 requirements).

tended Coverage Sprinklers are in-
tended for use in re sprinkler systems
designed in accordance with extend-
ed coverage installation guidelines
provided by NFPA 13 and the installa-
tion criteria provided by Table B.

Physical Characteristics
With the exceptions of the bulb, the
Insert, the Deector, and the Seal-
ing Assembly, all components of the
Series DS-1 Stainless Steel Dry-Type
Sprinkler are constructed with Type
316 Stainless Steel.
• The bulb is glass.
• The Insert is 300 Series Stainless
Steel.
• The Deector is Type 316L Stainless
Steel.
The Sealing Assembly consists of a
Disc Spring that is sealed on both its
inside and outside faces with a TEF-
LON gasket. The Disc Spring is 1/2
Hard Beryllium Nickel.
Refer to Figures 1 through 3 for com-
ponent assemblies.
• cast bronze threaded tee ttings
that meet the dimensional require-
ments of ANSI B16.15 (Class 125)
• stainless steel threaded tee ttings
that meet the dimensional require-
ments of MSS SP-114.
Do not install the Series DS-1 Stain-
less Steel Dry-Type Sprinklers into
elbow ttings. The inlet of the sprinkler
can contact the interior of the elbow,
potentially damaging the Inlet seal.
The unused outlet of the threaded tee is
plugged as shown in Figures 4 and 5.
You can also install the Series DS-1
Sprinklers in the 1 Inch NPT outlet of
a GRINNELL Figure 730 Mechanical
Tee. However, the use of the Figure
730 Tee for this arrangement is limited
to wet-pipe systems.
The conguration shown in Figure 4 is
only applicable for wet-pipe systems
where the sprinkler tting and water-
lled pipe above the sprinkler tting
are not subject to freezing and where
the length of the Stainless Steel Dry-
Type Sprinkler has the minimum
exposure length depicted in Figure 6.
Refer to the Exposure Length section.
For wet-pipe system installations of
the 1 Inch NPT Series DS-1 Stainless
Steel Dry-Type Sprinklers connected
to CPVC piping, use only the following
TYCO CPVC ttings:
• 1” x 1” NPT Female Adapter
(P/N 80145)
• 1” x 1” x 1” NPT Sprinkler Head
Adapter Tee (P/N 80249)
For dry-pipe system installations, use
only the side outlet of maximum 2-1/2
inch reducing tee when locating the
Series DS-1 Stainless Steel Dry-Type
Sprinklers directly below the branch
line. Otherwise, use the conguration
shown in Figure 5 to assure complete
water drainage from above the Series
DS-1 Stainless Steel Dry-Type Sprin-
klers and the branchline. Failure to
do so may result in pipe freezing and
water damage.
NOTICE
Do not install the Series DS-1
Stainless Steel Dry-Type Sprinklers
into any other type fitting without first
consulting the Technical Services
Department. Failure to use the
appropriate fitting can result in one of
the following:
• failure of the sprinkler to operate
properly due to formation of ice
over the Inlet Plug or binding of the
Inlet Plug
• insufficient engagement of the In-
let pipe threads with consequent
leakage
