Operation
The glass Bulb contains a fluid which
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 Series TY-B Pendent and Upright
Sprinklers are intended for fire protection systems designed in accordance
with the standard installation rules recognized by the applicable Listing or
Approval agency (e.g., UL Listing is
based on the requirements of NFPA
13, and FM Approval is based on the
requirements of FMs Loss Prevention
Data Sheets). Only the Style 10 or 40
Recessed Escutcheon, as applicable,
is to be used for recessed pendent
installations.

NOTES
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 1/16 inch
(1,6 mm) for the 135F/57C to 3/32
inch (2,4 mm) for the 360F/182C
temperature 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 make-up for insufficient adjustment in the escutcheon
plate by under- or over-tightening the
TFP151
NOTES
Only retouching of the wax coating applied to the wrench flats and frame
arms is permitted, and the retouching
is to be performed only at the time of
the initial sprinkler installation.
The steel rod should be heated only to
the point at which it can begin to melt
the wax, and appropriate precautions
need to be taken, when handling the
heated rod, in order to prevent the
installer from being burned.

Care and
Maintenance
The Series TY-B Sprinklers must be
maintained and serviced in accordance with the following instructions:
NOTES
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 fire protection system must be
obtained from the proper authorities
and all personnel who may be affected
by this action must be notified.
The owner must assure that the sprinklers are not used for hanging of any
objects; otherwise, non-operation in
the event of a fire 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 fire 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
altered after leaving the factory. Modified 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 damage to the sprinklers - before, during,
