Installation
TYCO Model TY3201, Quick Response,
Standard Coverage, 80K Pendent
Sprinklers must be installed in accor-
dance with this section.
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 sprin-
kler held horizontally, a small air bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1,6 mm.
Install pendent sprinklers only in the
pendent orientation with the deflector
parallel to the mounting surface.
General Instructions
A leak-tight 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint
should be obtained with a torque of
9.5 to 19,0 N·m. Higher levels of torque
may distort the sprinkler inlet with con-
sequent leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
Do not attempt to compensate for
insufficient adjustment of an escutch-
eon plate by under- or over-tightening
the sprinkler. Readjust the position of
the sprinkler fitting to suit.
Step 1. After installing an escutcheon,
as applicable, over the sprinkler pipe
threads, and with pipe thread sealant
applied to the pipe threads, hand-
tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler
fitting.
Step 2. Wrench-tighten pendent sprin-
klers using only the W-Type 6 (End A)
Sprinkler Wrench. The wrench recess
of the sprinkler wrench (Ref. Figure 2)
is to be applied to the sprinkler wrench
flats (Ref. Figure 1).

main control valve for maintenance

Sprinklers that have been exposed to
corrosive products of combustion, but

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
damage to the sprinklers before,
during, and after installation. Sprin-
klers damaged by dropping, striking,
wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must
be replaced. Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb. (Refer to Installa-
tion Section).
