Product Description

Reliable Model F1 series sprinklers are standard-response

standard spray automatic re sprinklers utilizing a 5.0 mm glass

bulb thermal element.

Pendent and horizontal sidewall sprinklers may be installed

exposed or surface mounted using escutcheons such as the

Reliable Models B, C, or HB (reference Technical Bulletin 204).

When installed recessed, the Model F1-56 series sprinklers

are specically listed with and may only be installed with listed

Reliable escutcheons. Refer to the technical information on the

following pages for specic listings for recessed installations and

refer to Figures 7 and 8 for dimensional information.

When tted with an approved water shield, these sprinklers may

considered intermediate sprinklers for use in racks, below grated

walkways, and other areas where intermediate level sprinklers are

required.

Table A provides a summary of the approvals and availability

of specic Model F1 series sprinkler congurations. Additional

technical information for each sprinkler model is provided on the

following pages.

Installation

Model F1 Series sprinklers must be installed in accordance with

NFPA13 and the requirements of all applicable authorities having

jurisdiction. Model F1 Series sprinklers must be installed with the

Reliable sprinkler installation wrench identied in the Design and

Installation Information table in this Bulletin. Any other wrench may

damage the sprinkler. A leak tight sprinkler joint can be obtained

with a torque of 8 to 18 lb-ft (11 to 24 N.m). Do not tighten

sprinklers over the maximum recommended installation torque.

Exceeding the maximum recommended installation torque may

cause leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.

Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors or protective

caps to minimize bulb damage during shipping, handling and

installation. Reliable sprinkler installation wrenches are designed

to install sprinklers with bulb protectors in place. Remove the bulb

protector at the time when the sprinkler system is placed in service

for re protection. Removal of the bulb protector before this time

may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. Remove bulb protectors

by undoing the clasp by hand. Do not use tools to remove bulb

protectors.

3. cULus Listed as corrosion resistant.

4. FM Approved as corrosion resistant.

5. For 200°F (93°C) maximum temperature rated sprinklers only.

6. LPCB and VDS approved for SIN RA1314 and RA1325.

7. Clear wax used on ordinary temperature rated sprinklers; brown wax used on intermediate temperature rated sprinklers. Brown wax may be used on

high temperature rated sprinklers where the ambient temperature does not exceed 150°F (66°C).

8. Not available for 500°F (260°C) temperature rated sprinklers.

Sprinkler and Escutcheon Finishes(1) Table B

Maintenance

Reliable Model F1 series sprinklers should be inspected and the

sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25, as well

as the requirements of any Authorities Having Jurisdiction.

Prior to installation, sprinklers should remain in the original

cartons and packaging until used. This will minimize the potential

for damage to sprinklers that could cause improper operation or

non-operation.

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

any other cleaning fluids. Remove dust by gentle vacuuming

without touching the sprinkler.

Replace any sprinkler which has been painted (other than factory

applied). A stock of spare sprinklers should be maintained to

allow quick replacement of damaged or operated sprinklers.

Failure to properly maintain sprinklers may result in inadvertent

operation or non-operation during a re event.
