Product Description

The Reliable Models F1 and F1FR Intermediate Level

Sprinklers include shields which protect the glass bulb from

water spray impingement caused by sprinklers located at a

higher elevation.

Typical applications are for storage racks which require multi–

level sprinklers and beneath open grid catwalks.

Application

Model F1 and F1FR Intermediate Level sprinklers are used

in ﬁxed ﬁre protection systems: Wet, Dry, Deluge or Preaction.

Care must be exercised that the oriﬁce size, temperature

rating, deﬂector style and sprinkler type are in accordance with

the latest published standards of the National Fire Protection

Association or the Authority Having Jurisdiction.

Installation

Model F1 sprinklers are standard response sprinklers and

Model F1FR are quick response sprinklers. Both types are

intended for installation as speciﬁed in NFPA 13. Upright

sprinklers must be installed with the Model D Sprinkler Wrench

speciﬁcally designed by Reliable for use with these sprinklers

and pendent sprinklers must be installed with the Model GFR1

Sprinkler Wrench speciﬁcally designed by Reliable for use with

these sprinklers.

Model F1

Pendent Intermediate

Model F1

Upright Intermediate

Glass bulb sprinklers have orange covers to protect the bulb

during the installation process. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION

ONLY AFTER THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN HYDROSTATICALLY

TESTED AND, WHEN APPLICABLE, THE ESCUTCHEONS

HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. RASCO wrenches are designed to

install sprinklers when covers are in place.

Maintenance

The Models F1 and F1FR Sprinklers should be inspected and

the sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25.

Do not clean sprinklers with soap and water, ammonia or any

other cleaning ﬂuid. Remove dust by using a soft brush or gentle

vacuuming. Remove any sprinkler which has been painted (other

than factory applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare

sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick replacement of

damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installation, sprinklers

should be maintained in the original cartons and packaging until

used to minimize the potential for damage to sprinklers that

would cause improper or non-operation.
