Installation
The Series TY -FRB Sprinklers must
be installed in accordance with the fol-
lowing instructions:
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 1116 inch
(1,6 mm) for the 135 °F157 °C to 3132
inch (2,4 mm) for the 2860F1141 °C
temperature ratings.
A leak tight 112 inch NPT sprinkler joint
should be obtained with a torque of 7
to 14 ft.lbs. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm). A maxi-
mum of 21 ft. lbs. (28,5 Nm) of torque
may be used to install sprinklers with
112 NPT connections. Higher levels of
torque may distort the sprinkler and
cause leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
Do not attempt to make -up for insuffi-
cient adjustment in the escutcheon
plate by under- or over - tightening the
sprinkler. Readjust the position of the
sprinkler fitting to suit.
The Series TY -FRB Horizontal and
Vertical Sidewall Sprinklers must be
installed in accordance with the follow-
ing instructions.
Step 1. Horizontal sidewalt sprinklers
are to be installed in the horizontal
position with their centerline of water-
way perpendicular to the back wall and
parallel to the ceiling. The word "TOP"
on the Deflector is to face towards the
ceiling.
Vertical sidewalt sprinklers are to be
installed in the pendent or upright po-
sition with the arrow on the Deflector
pointing away from the wall.
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
6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 5),
With reference to Figure 1 or 2, the
W -Type 6 Sprinkler Wrench is to be
applied to the wrench flats.
The Series TY -FRB Recessed Hori-
zontal Sidewall Sprinklers must be
installed in accordance with the follow-
ing instructions.
Step A. Recessed horizontal sidewalt
sprinklers are to be installed in the
horizontal position with their centerline
of waterway perpendicular to the back
wall and parallel to the ceiling. The
word 'TOP" on the Deflector is to face
towards the ceiling.

Step B. After installing the Style 10 or
20 Mounting Plate over the sprinkler
threads, hand tighten the sprinkler into
the sprinkler fitting.
Step C. Tighten the sprinkler into the

Figure 6). With reference to Figure 1,
the W -Type 7 Recessed Sprinkler
Wrench is to be applied to the sprinkler
wrench flats.
Step D. After the ceiling has been in-
stalled or the finish coat has been ap-
plied, slide on the Style 10 or 20 Clo-
sure over the Series TY -FRB Sprinkler
and push the Closure over the Mount-
ing Plate until its flange comes in con-
tact with the ceiling
Care and
Maintenance
The Series TY -BFR Sprinklers must
be maintained and serviced in accord-
ance 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 no-
tified.
The owner must assure that the sprin-
klers are not used for hanging of any
objects; otherwise, non - operation in
the event of fire orinadvertent opera-
tion 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
