Operation
The glass bulb contains a uid which
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
uid expands sufciently to shatter the
glass bulb, allowing the sprinkler to
activate and water to ow.

Installation
The Series TY-B 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 bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1,6 mm for
the 57°C to 2,4 mm for the 141°C tem-
perature ratings.
A leak tight ISO 7-1 R 3/8 sprinkler
joint should be obtained with a torque
of 8 to 16 N∙m. A leak tight 1/2 in. NPT
sprinkler joint should be obtained with
a torque of 9 to 19 N∙m. A leak tight
3/4 in. NPT sprinkler joint should be
obtained with a torque of 13 to 27 N∙m.
Higher levels of torque may distort the
sprinkler inlet and cause leakage or
impairment of the sprinkler.
Do not attempt to make up for insuf-
cient adjustment in the escutcheon
plate by under- or over-tightening the
sprinkler. Readjust the position of the
sprinkler tting to suit.
The Series TY-B Pendent and Upright
Sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance with the following instructions:
Step 1. Pendent sprinklers are to be
installed in the pendent position, and
upright sprinklers are to be installed in
the upright position.
Step 2. With pipe thread sealant
applied to the pipe threads, hand
tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler
tting.
Step 3. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler tting using only the W-Type
6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 4) or
W-Type 7 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure
5). With reference to Figures 1, 2, and
3, the W-Type 6 or W-Type 7 Sprinkler
Wrench is to be applied to the wrench
ats.
