Product Description
The Reliable Models JL-14 and JL-17 are Early Suppression
Fast Response (ESFR) Sprinklers with nominal K-factors of 14.0
(200 metric) and 16.8 (240 metric), respectively. The sprinklers
use a levered fusible alloy solder link in either a 165°F (74°C)
or a 212°F (100°C) temperature rating. These sprinklers are
designed to respond quickly to growing fires and will deliver a
heavy water discharge to “suppress” rather than “control” fires.
FM Approvals classifies the Model JL-14 and JL-17 as quick-
response sprinklers, storage and non-storage, when used in
accordance with FM Global Property Loss Prevention Data
Sheets.
The JL-14 and JL-17 sprinklers are available with 3/4” NPT or
ISO7-1R3/4 (BSPT) threads, and the JL-17 is also available with
the Victaulic® IGS™ Style V9 Sprinkler Coupling*.
Model JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers are designed to be
shorter and more compact than other ESFR sprinklers, allowing
greater flexibility with regard to distance from ceilings and
obstructions. The JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers are also
less susceptible to damage due to smaller deflector and frame
design. The lighter JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR sprinklers passed
rough use and abuse listing tests without plastic protectors

Installation
Model JL-14 and JL-17 sprinklers are intended for installation in
accordance with NFPA 13 and FM Loss Prevention Data Sheets
2-0 and 8-9, as well as the requirements of any Authorities
Having Jurisdiction. See Table B for information on NFPA
and FM Global design criteria for the Model JL-14 and JL-17
sprinklers.
For threaded sprinklers only, use the Model J1 sprinkler wrench
for removal and installation. Any other type of wrench may
damage the sprinkler. A grooved wrench boss is provided on
the sprinkler to limit the potential for the wrench to slip during
installation.
When handling sprinklers, hold sprinklers only on frame arms
and do not apply any force on the link assembly. Model JL-14
and JL-17 sprinklers should be tightened between 14 - 40 ft-lbs
(19 - 54 N-m) torque. Sprinklers not tightened to recommended
torque may cause leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.
Damaged sprinklers must be replaced immediately.
For grooved sprinklers, push the IGS™ Style V9 Sprinkler
Coupling onto the grooved outlet until contact with the center
leg of the gasket occurs. Align the sprinkler frame arms and
the pads of the coupling with the sprinkler piping and tighten
the coupling until the pads of the coupling meet. For additional
information, please reference Victaulic® technical bulletin I-V9.
Caution: When handling sprinklers, hold sprinklers only by the
frame arms and do not apply any force on the link assembly.
Maintenance
Model JL-14 and JL-17 ESFR Sprinklers should be inspected
and the sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA
25. Do not clean sprinkler with soap and water, ammonia or
any other cleaning fluid. Replace any sprinkler that 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 operation or
non-operation.
Once operated, automatic sprinklers cannot be reassembled
and reused. New sprinklers of the same size, type and
temperature rating must be installed. A cabinet of replacement
sprinklers should be provided for this purpose.
