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
installation can permanently dam-
age 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.

General
Description
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
Sprinklers described in this technical
data sheet are corrosion resistant sprin-
klers designed for use in commercial
occupancies where corrosive atmo-
spheres may exist. The TY-B with its 5
mm diameter heat sensitive glass bulb
is rated standard response, whereas the
TY-FRB with its 3 mm diameter heat sen-
sitive glass bulb is rated quick response.
The alternate materials of construction
for the TY-B and TY-FRB Sprinklers, that
is Stainless Steel, SMO, or Titanium, are
utilized to extend the life of a sprinkler
beyond that which might be expected
of copper alloy sprinklers exposed to
corrosive atmospheres. Although cor-
rosion resistant sprinklers have passed
the standard corrosion tests of the ap-
plicable approval agencies, the test-
ing is not representative of all possible
corrosive atmospheres. Consequently,
it is recommended that the end user be
consulted with respect to the suitability
of these alternate materials of construc-
tion for any given corrosive environment.
The effects of ambient temperature, con-
centration of chemicals, and gas/chemi-
cal velocity, should be considered, as a
minimum, along with the corrosive nature
of the chemical to which the sprinklers
will be exposed.

Pendent and Upright Sprinklers
The pendent and upright sprinklers are
standard coverage spray sprinklers avail-
able in either 5.6 or 8.0 K-factor. The
recessed version is intended for use in
areas with a nished ceiling. The two-
piece Style 10 (1/2 inch NPT) or Style 40
(3/4 inch NPT) Recessed Escutcheons
provide 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) of recessed
adjustment or 3/4 inch (19,1 mm) of to-
tal adjustment from the ush pendent
position. The adjustment provided by
the Recessed Escutcheon reduces the
accuracy to which the xed pipe drops
to the sprinklers must be cut.
Conventional Sprinklers
The 5.6 or 8.0 K-factor conventional
sprinklers are intended to be installed
either pendent or upright and, in either
position, they produce a spherical water
discharge pattern with approximately
50% of the discharge upwards and ap-
proximately 50% of the discharge di-
rected downwards.
Conventional sprinklers are generally
used with Ordinary and Extra High haz-
ard Class Systems as dened by the
automatic sprinkler system installation
rules of the country and authority hav-
ing jurisdiction. The NFPA permits the
use of conventional sprinklers (old style
sprinklers) where special construction
features require a unique water distri-
bution; for fur vaults; or, replacement of
similar sprinklers that had been installed
prior to 1955.
Sidewall Sprinklers
The horizontal and vertical sidewall sprin-
klers are designed for installation along
a wall or side of a beam and just beneath
a smooth ceiling. Sidewall sprinklers are
commonly used instead of pendent and
upright sprinklers due to aesthetics or
building construction considerations,
where piping across the ceiling is not
desirable.
A recessed version of the horizontal
sidewall sprinkler can be achieved by
using the Style 10 Recessed Escutcheon.
NOTICE
The Series TY-B and TY-FRB Sprinklers
described herein must be installed and
maintained in compliance with this docu-
ment and with the applicable standards
of the National Fire Protection Associa-
tion, 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 maintaining
their fire protection system and devices in
proper operating condition. Contact the
installing contractor or product manu-
facturer with any questions.

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 ac-
tivate and water to ow.
Design
Criteria
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
Sprinklers are intended for re protec-
tion systems designed in accordance
with the standard installation rules rec-
ognized by the applicable Listing or Ap-
proval agency (e.g., UL Listing is based
on the requirements of NFPA 13). Only

Installation
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance 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 1/16 inch
(1,6 mm) for the 135°F (57°C) and 3/32
inch (2,4 mm) for the 360°F (182°C) tem-
perature ratings.
A 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint should be
obtained with a minimum to maximum
torque of 7 to 14 ft.-lbs. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm).
A 3/4 inch NPT sprinkler joint should be
obtained with a minimum to maximum
torque of 10 to 20 ft.-lbs. (13,4 to 26,8
Nm). Higher levels of torque may distort
the sprinkler inlet and cause leakage or
impairment of the sprinkler.
Do not attempt to compensate for in-
sufcient adjustment in the Sprinkler by
under- or over-tightening the Sprinkler.
Re-adjust the position of the sprinkler
tting to suit.

Care and
Maintenance
The TYCO Series TY-B and TY-FRB
Sprinklers must be maintained and ser-
viced in accordance with this section.
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance
work on the fire protection system that
it controls, permission to shut down the
affected re protection system must be
obtained from the proper authorities and
all personnel who may be affected by
this action must be notied.
The owner must assure that the sprinklers
are not used for hanging of any objects;
otherwise, non-operation in the event of
a re or inadvertent operation may result.
Absence of an escutcheon, which is
used to cover a clearance hole, may
delay the time to sprinkler operation in
a re 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 otherwise al-
tered after leaving the factory. Modied
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 damaged by
dropping, striking, wrench twist/slippage,
or the like, must be replaced. Also, re-
place any sprinkler that has a cracked
bulb or that has lost liquid from its bulb.
(Ref. Installation Section).
Frequent visual inspections are recom-
mended to be initially performed for
corrosion resistant sprinklers, after the
installation has been completed, to verify
the integrity of the corrosion resistant ma-
terial of construction. Thereafter, annual
inspections per NFPA 25 should sufce;
however, instead of inspecting from the
oor level, a random sampling of close-
up visual inspections should be made, so
as to better determine the exact sprinkler
condition and the long term integrity of
the corrosion resistant material of con-
struction, as it may be affected by the
corrosive conditions present.
The owner is responsible for the inspec-
tion, testing, and maintenance of their
re protection system and devices in
compliance with this document, as well
as with the applicable standards of the
National Fire Protection Association (e.g.,
NFPA 25), in addition to the standards
of any other authorities having jurisdic-
tion. Contact the installing contractor or
product manufacturer with any questions.
Automatic sprinkler systems should be
inspected, tested, and maintained by a
qualied Inspection Service in accor-
dance with local requirements and/or
national codes.
