Product Description
The Reliable Models F156 and F1FR56 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 F156 and F1FR56 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 F156 sprinklers are standard response sprinklers
and Model F1FR56 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 GFR2 Sprinkler Wrench specifically designed by
Reliable for use with these sprinklers.
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. Model D and GFR2 wrenches
are designed to install sprinklers when covers are in place.

Maintenance
The Models F156 and F1FR56 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.
