Tyco Issue D Quartzoid TY3191 User manual

General
Description
The Tyco®Issue D, 5.6 and 8.0 K-fac-
tor, Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
described in this data sheet are stand-
ard response - standard coverage, 11
mm glass bulb type spray sprinklers
designed for use in light, ordinary, or
extra hazard, commercial occupan-
cies where high ambient temperatures
may be encountered.
Corrosion-resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend the
life of copper alloy sprinklers beyond
that which would otherwise be ob-
tained when exposed to corrosive at-
mospheres. Although corrosion-resis-
tant coated sprinklers have passed the
standard corrosion tests of the appli-
cable approval agencies, the testing is
not representative of all possible cor-
rosive atmospheres. Consequently, it
is recommended that the end user be
consulted with respect to the suitability
of these coatings for any given corro-
sive environment. The effects of ambi-
ent temperature, concentration of
chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity
should be considered, as a minimum,
along with the corrosive nature of the
chemical to which the sprinklers will be
exposed.
NOTICE
The Issue D Sprinklers described
herein must be installed and main-
tained in compliance with this docu-
ment, as well as with the applicable
standards of the National Fire Protec-
tion Association, in addition to the
standards of any authorities having ju-
risdiction. Failure to do so may impair
the performance of these devices.
The owner is responsible for maintain-
ing their fire protection system and de-
vices in proper operating condition.
The installing contractor or sprinkler
manufacturer should be contacted
with any questions.

IMPORTANT
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the “INSTALLER
WARNING” that provides cautions
with respect to handling and instal-
lation of sprinkler systems and com-
ponents. Improper handling and in-
stallation can permanently damage
a sprinkler system or its compo-
nents and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.

Operation
The glass Bulb contains a fluid that
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.
Design
Criteria
The Tyco®Issue D Pendent and Up-
right Sprinklers are intended for fire
protection systems designed in ac-
cordance with the standard installation
rules recognized by the applicable
Listing or Approval agency (for exam-
ple, UL Listing is based on the require-
ments of NFPA 13, and FM Approval
is based on the requirements of FM
Loss Prevention Data Sheets).
Installation
The Issue D Sprinklers must be in-
stalled in accordance with the follow-
ing instructions.
NOTICE
Do not install any bulb type sprinkler if
the bulb is cracked or there is a loss of
liquid from the bulb. With the sprinkler
held horizontally, a small air bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1/4 inch
(6,4 mm).
Obtain a leak-tight 1/2 inch NPT sprin-
kler joint by applying a minimum-to-
maximum torque of 7 to 14 ft.lbs. (9,5
to 19,0 Nm). Obtain a leak-tight 3/4
inch NPT sprinkler joint by applying a
minimum-to-maximum torque of 10 to
20 ft.lbs. (13,4 to 26,8 Nm). Higher
levels of torque can distort the sprin-
kler inlet and cause leakage or impair-
ment of the sprinkler.
Step 1. Install pendent sprinklers in
the pendent position and upright sprin-
klers in the upright position.
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
11 Sprinkler Wrench (refer to Figure
3). With reference to Figures 1 and 2,
apply the W-Type 11 Sprinkler Wrench
to the wrenching area.
Care and
Maintenance
The Tyco®Issue D Sprinklers must be
maintained and serviced in accord-
ance with the following instructions.
NOTICE
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance
work on the fire protection system that
it controls, obtain permission to shut
down the affected fire protection sys-
tem from the proper authorities and
notify all personnel who may be af-
fected by this action.
Exercise care to avoid damage to the
sprinklers before, during, and after in-
stallation. Never paint, plate, coat, or
otherwise alter automatic sprinklers
after they leave the factory.
Replace sprinklers that:
•were modified.
•were damaged by dropping, striking,
wrench twisting, wrench slippage, or
the like.
•are leaking or exhibiting visible signs
of corrosion.
•were exposed to corrosive products
of combustion but have not oper-
ated, if they cannot be completely
cleaned by wiping the sprinkler with
a cloth or by brushing it with a soft
bristle brush.
•have a cracked bulb or that have lost
liquid from the bulb (refer to the In-
stallation section).
Frequent visual inspections of random
samples are recommended to be in-
itially performed for corrosion-resis-
tant coated sprinklers to verify the in-
tegrity of the corrosion-resistant
coating. Thereafter, annual inspec-
tions per NFPA 25 should suffice. In-
spections of corrosion-resistant sprin-

klers are recommended to be at close
range (instead of inspecting from the
floor level per NFPA 25). Inspection at
close range can better determine the
exact sprinkler condition and the long-
term integrity of the corrosion-resis-
tant coating, which can be affected by
the corrosive conditions present.
Responsibility lies with the owner for
the inspection, testing, and mainte-
nance of their fire protection system
and devices in compliance with this
document, as well as with the applica-
ble standards of the National Fire Pro-
tection Association (for example,
NFPA 25), in addition to the standards
of any authorities having jurisdiction.
Contact the installing contractor or
sprinkler manufacturer regarding any
questions.
Automatic sprinkler systems are rec-
ommended to be inspected, tested,
and maintained by a qualified Inspec-
tion Service in accordance with local
requirements and/or national codes.
