Upright and Pendent Sprinklers

Model E, K=5.6, 1/2" NPT

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Star Model E, 5.6 K-Factor, Upright and Pendent

Sprinklers are standard response - standard coverage,

solder type spray sprinklers designed for use in occupan-

cies where the ambient temperature necessitates the use

of extra high or very extra high temperature rated sprin-

klers.

Lead coatings are utilized to extend the life of copper al-

loy sprinklers beyond that which would otherwise be ob-

tained when exposed to corrosive atmospheres. Although

lead coated sprinklers have passed the standard corro-

sion tests of the applicable approval agencies, the testing

is not representative of all possible corrosive atmos-

pheres. Consequently, it is recommended that the end

user be consulted with respect to the suitability of these

corrosion resistant coatings for any given corrosive envi-

ronment. The effects of ambient temperature, concentra-

tion of chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity, should be

considered, as a minimum, along with the corrosive na-

ture of the chemical to which the sprinklers will be ex-

posed.

WARNINGS

The Model E Sprinklers described herein must be in-

stalled and maintained in compliance with this document,

as well as with the applicable standards of the National

Fire Protection Association, in addition to the standards

of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do

so may impair the integrity of these devices.

The owner is responsible for maintaining their fire protec-

tion system and devices in proper operating condition.

The installing contractor or sprinkler manufacturer should

be contacted relative to any questions.

OPERATION

A bronze tube sealed by a steel ball holds a fusible alloy.

The tube is compression loaded and via the tension

mechanism, the cap seals the sprinkler orifice. When the

rated temperature is reached, the alloy melts, the ball is

forced inward, and the tension mechanism releases the

cap, which then allows the sprinkler to activate and flow

water.

Physical Characteristics (Ref. Figure 1)

The Model E utilizes a dezincification resistant (DZR)

bronze frame with a brass deflector. The waterway is

sealed with copper gasket. The fusible assembly is con-

structed of bronze and stainless steel components.

DESIGN CRITERIA

The 5.6 K-Factor, Model E Upright and Pendent Sprin-

klers are intended for fire protection systems designed in

accordance with the standard installation rules recog-

nized by the applicable Listing or Approval agency (e.g.,

UL Listing is based on NFPA 13 requirements). Installa-

tion of Model E Sprinklers in recessed escutcheons will

void all sprinkler warranties, as well as possibly void the

sprinkler’s Approvals and/or Listings.

INSTALLATION

The 5.6 K-Factor, Model E Sprinklers must be installed in

accordance with the following instructions:

NOTES

A leak tight 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint should be ob-

tained with a torque of 7 to 14 ft.lbs. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm). A

maximum of 21 ft. lbs. (28,5 Nm) of torque may be used

to install sprinklers with 1/2 NPT connections. Higher lev-

els of torque may distort the sprinkler inlet with conse-

quent leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.

The Model E Pendent and Upright Sprinklers must be in-

stalled in accordance with the following instructions.

1. Pendent sprinklers are to be installed in the pendent

position, and upright sprinklers are to be installed in the

upright position.

2. With pipe thread sealant applied to the pipe threads, hand

tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting.

3. Tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting using only the

Model E Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 2). With reference

to Figure 1, the Model E Sprinkler Wrench is to be applied

to the sprinkler wrench flat area.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Model E Sprinklers must be maintained and serviced in

accordance with the following instructions:

NOTE

Before closing a fire protection system main control valve

for maintenance work on the fire protection system which

it controls, permission to shut down the affected fire pro-

tection systems must be obtained from the proper authori-

ties and all personnel who may be affected by this action

must be notified.

Sprinklers which are found to be leaking or exhibiting vis-

ible signs of corrosion must be replaced.

Automatic sprinklers must never be shipped or stored

where their temperature will exceed 100°F/38°C and they

must never be painted, plated, coated, or otherwise al-

tered after leaving the factory.

Care must be exercised to avoid damage to the sprinklers

— before, during, and after installation. Sprinklers dam-

aged by dropping, striking, wrench twist/slippage or the

like, must be replaced.

Frequent visual inspections are recommended to be in-

itially performed for lead coated sprinklers, after the instal-

lation has been completed, to verify the integrity of the

lead coating. Thereafter, annual inspections per NFPA 25

should suffice; however, instead of inspecting from the

floor level, a random sampling of close-up visual inspec-

tions should be made, so as to better determine the exact

sprinkler condition and the long term integrity of the lead

coating, as it may be affected by the corrosive conditions

present.

The owner is responsible for the inspection, testing, and

maintenance of their fire protection system and devices in

compliance with this document, as well as with the appli-

cable standards of the National Fire Protection Associa-

tion (e.g., NFPA 25), in addition to the standards of any

other authorities having jurisdiction. The installing contrac-

tor or sprinkler manufacturer should be contacted relative

to any questions.

It is recommended that automatic sprinkler systems be in-

spected, tested, and maintained by a qualified Inspection

Service.
