Model RFC Series residential sprinklers are flat cover plate,
concealed pendent sprinklers intended for installation in
accordance with NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, or NFPA 13D. The
sprinklers are cULus Listed as Residential Sprinklers in ac-
cordance with UL 1626. In addition, Model RFCLL Series
sprinklers are cULus Certified for Health Effects to NSF/ANSI
standard 61 Annex G (LL) and Australian WaterMark Certified
(WMCS).
Model RFC30 sprinklers have a 165°F (74°C) temperature
rated fusible-link operating element. Model RFC43, RFC49,
RFC58, and RFC76 sprinklers are offered with either a 165°F
(74°C) or 212°F (100°C) temperature rated fusible-link oper-
ating element. Sprinklers with a 165°F (74°C) temperature
rating are ordinary temperature classification and are listed
for use with a 135°F (570C) temperature rated cover plate.
Sprinklers with a 212°F (100°C) temperature rating are inter-
mediate temperature classification and are listed for use with
a 165°F (74°C) temperature rated cover plate.
Model RFC Series sprinklers are installed with a Model RFC
cover plate. Model RFC cover plates may be installed by ei-
ther pushing or threading the cover plate into the sprinkler
cup. Model RFC30, RFC30LL, RFC43, RFC43LL, RFC49 and
RFC49LL sprinklers allow 1/2" (13 mm) of cover plate adjust-
ment. Model RFC58 and RFC76 sprinklers allow 3/4" (19 mm)

For use with 165°F (74°C) temperature rated sprinklers where the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 100°F (381C). For use with 212°F (100°C) temperature rated sprinklers where the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 150°F (66°C).
Installation
Model RFC series sprinklers are intended to be installed in ac-
cordance with NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, or NFPA 13D, as well as the
requirements of applicable authorities having jurisdiction. Mod-
el RFC series sprinklers must not be installed in ceilings with
positive pressure in the space above. Ensure that the 4 slots in
the cup are open and unobstructed following installation. Model
RFC series sprinklers are shipped with a wrench-able protec-
tive cap that should remain on the sprinkler until the sprinkler
system is placed in service following construction.
Model RFC series sprinklers can be installed without removing
the wrench-able protective cap using the Model W3 wrench.
Alternatively, Model RFC series sprinklers can be installed us-
ing the Model FC wrench by temporarily removing the protec-
tive cap during installation of the sprinkler. The use of any other
wrench to installed Model RFC series sprinklers is not permit-
ted and may damage the sprinkler. Fully insert the Model W3
wrench over the cap until it reaches the bottom of the cup, or
the Model FC wrench over the sprinkler until the wrench engag-
es the body. Do not wrench any other part of the sprinkler/cup
assembly. The Model W3 and FC wrenches are designed to be
turned with a standard 1/2" square drive. Tighten the sprinkler
into the fitting after applying a PIFE based thread sealant to the
sprinkler's threads. Recommended installation torque is 8 to 18
ft-lbs (11 to 24 N-m) for 1/2" thread sprinklers and 14 to 20ff-lbs
(19 to 27 N-m) for 3/4" thread sprinklers.
Bulletin 006

The Model FP escutcheon assembly consists of an unfinished galvanized cup with a finished escutcheon ring.
Installation
Models Fl Res sprinklers are to be installed as shown in this
bulletin. Model Fl, F2, FV, and FP recessed escutcheons
are the only recessed escutcheons to be used with Model
F1 Res sprinklers. Not all F1 Res sprinklers may be used with
all recessed escutcheons offered. Confirm listing of escutch-
eon type for use with individual sprinklers. Use of any other
recessed escutcheon will void all approvals and warranties.
For installing Model F1 Res sprinklers, use only the Model W2 sprinkler Wrench; for installing Models F1 Res Recessed
Pendent, Sidewall, Conical Concealed Pendent (CCP), and
Sidewall Concealed (SWC and SWC-2) sprinklers use only the Model GFR2 sprinkler wrench. Use of wrenches other than
those specified may damage these sprinklers.
Model GFR2
Installation of Fl Res sprinklers in a wall or ceiling will require
a hole diameter of 2-1/4" (57 mm) for Fl or F2 recessed
escutcheons; or 2-5/8" (67 mm) for FP recessed escutcheons,
CCP, SWC, and SWC-2 cover plates.
Install Fl Res HSW sprinklers with a ceiling to deflector dis-
tance that complies with the hydraulic design criteria tables in
this bulletin. The flow arrow on deflector must point away from
near wall and "Top" marking must face the ceiling.
A 'leak tight" sprinkler joint can be obtained with the following
torque:
1/2" NPT and IS07-1R1/2: 8-18 ft-lbs (11 -24 N-m)
3/4" NPT and lS07-1R3/4: 14-20 ft-lbs (19-27 N-m)
Do not tighten sprinklers over maximum recommended torque.
This may cause leakage or impairment of the sprinklers.
Do not install any glass bulb sprinklers where the bulb is
cracked or there is a loss of liquid from the bulb.
Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors to mini-
mize bulb damage during shipping, handling and installation.
Remove this protection at the time the sprinkler system is
placed in service. Removal of the protectors before this time
may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. RASCO wrenches
are designed to install sprinklers when protectors are in place.
Remove protectors by undoing the clasp by hand. Do not use
tools to remove the protectors.
Maintenance
Reliable Model F1 Res Sprinklers should be inspected and the
sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25, 13,
13D, and 13R, 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 vacuum-
ing without touching the sprinkler.
Replace any sprinkler which has been painted (other than
factory applied). Properly installed CCP, SWC, and SWC-2 cover plates will have an air gap that is required for proper
operation, do not seal the gap or paint the cover plates.
Model W2
Bulletin 135
Page 14 of 15 May 2019
www.reliablesprinkler.com
Replace any sprinkler which has been damaged, where
cracks are observed in the glass bulb, or when liquid has
been lost from the glass bulb.
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 inadver-
tent operation or non-operation during a fire event.

Product Description
Model RFC Series residential sprinklers are flat cover plate,
concealed pendent sprinklers intended for installation in
accordance with NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, or NFPA 13D. The
sprinklers are cULus Listed as Residential Sprinklers in ac-
cordance with UL 1626. In addition, Model RFCLL Series
sprinklers are cULus Certified for Health Effects to NSF/ANSI
standard 61 Annex G (LL) and Australian WaterMark Certified
(WMCS).
Model RFC30 sprinklers have a 165°F (74°C) temperature
rated fusible-link operating element. Model RFC43, RFC49,
RFC58, and RFC76 sprinklers are offered with either a 165°F
(74°C) or 212°F (100°C) temperature rated fusible-link oper-
ating element. Sprinklers with a 165°F (74°C) temperature
rating are ordinary temperature classification and are listed
for use with a 135°F (57°C) temperature rated cover plate.
Sprinklers with a 212°F (100°C) temperature rating are inter-
mediate temperature classification and are listed for use with
a 165°F (74°C) temperature rated cover plate.
Model RFC30 & RFC30LL Model RFC43 & RFC43LL

prior to installation. A 1/2" x 1/2" brass nipple extension (Reliable P/N 6999991900) is available where necessary for replacement of existing
sprinklers.
For use with 165°F (74°C) temperature rated sprinklers where the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 100°F (380C).
For use with 212°F (100°C) temperature rated sprinklers where the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 150°F (66°C).
Installation
Model RFC series sprinklers are intended to be installed in
accordance with NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, or NFPA 13D, as well as
the requirements of applicable authorities having jurisdiction.
Model RFC series sprinklers must not be installed in ceilings with
positive pressure in the space above. Ensure that the 4 slots in
the cup are open and unobstructed following installation. Model
RFC series sprinklers are shipped with a wrench-able protective
cap that should remain on the sprinkler until the sprinkler system
is placed in service following construction.
Model RFC series sprinklers can be installed without removing
the wrench-able protective cap using the Model W3 wrench.
Alternatively, Model RFC series sprinklers can be installed using
the Model FC wrench by temporarily removing the protective cap
during installation of the sprinkler. The use of any other wrench to
installed Model RFC series sprinklers is not permitted and may
damage the sprinkler. Fully insert the Model W3 wrench over
the cap until it reaches the bottom of the cup, or the Model FC
wrench over the sprinkler until the wrench engages the body.
Do not wrench any other part of the sprinkler/cup assembly. The
Model W3 and FC wrenches are designed to be turned with a
standard 1/2" square drive. Tighten the sprinkler into the fitting
after applying a PTFE based thread sealant to the sprinkler's
threads. Recommended installation torque is 8 to 18 ft-lbs (11
to 24 N-m) for 1/2" thread sprinklers and 14 to 20 ft-lbs (19 to 27
N-m) for 3/4" thread sprinklers.
Bulletin 006
January 2020
Do not exceed the maximum recommended torque. Exceeding
the maximum recommended torque may cause leakage or
impairment of the sprinkler. Use care when inserting or removing
the wrench from the sprinkler to avoid damage to the sprinkler.
Install the cover plate by hand by pushing the cover plate into the
cup and turning the cover in the clockwise direction until it is tight
against the ceiling.
Application
Model RFC series sprinklers are intended for installation where
residential sprinklers are permitted or required by NFPA 13,
NFPA 13R, and NFPA 13D. The sprinklers are concealed
pendent residential sprinklers.
Model RFC 30 and RFC30LL sprinklers are available in
ordinary temperature classification for installation where
the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 100°F
(380C). Model RFC43, RFC43LL, RFC49, RFC49LL, RFC58,
and RFC76 sprinklers are available in either ordinary or
intermediate temperature classification for installation where
the Maximum Ceiling Temperature does not exceed 100°F
(38°C) or 150°F (660C), respectively.

Maintenance
Model RFC series 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 fluids. Remove dust by gentle vacuuming. Replace
any sprinkler cover plate assembly which has been painted
(other than factory applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of
spare sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick replace-
ment 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-oper-
ation.

The Model FP escutcheon assembly consists of an unfinished galvanized cup with a finished escutcheon ring.
Installation
Models Fl Res sprinklers are to be installed as shown in this
bulletin. Model Fl, F2, FV, and FP recessed escutcheons
are the only recessed escutcheons to be used with Model
F1 Res sprinklers. Not all F1 Res sprinklers may be used with
all recessed escutcheons offered. Confirm listing of escutch-
eon type for use with individual sprinklers. Use of any other
recessed escutcheon will void all approvals and warranties.
For installing Model F1 Res sprinklers, use only the Model
W2 sprinkler Wrench: for installing Models Fl Res Recessed
Pendent, Sidewall, Conical Concealed Pendent (CCP), and
Sidewall Concealed (SWC and SWC-2) sprinklers use only
the Model GFR2 sprinkler wrench. Use of wrenches other than
those specified may damage these sprinklers.
Model W2
Model GFR2
Installation of Fl Res sprinklers in a wall or ceiling will require
a hole diameter of 2-1/4" (57 mm) for Fl or F2 recessed
escutcheons: or 2-5/8" (67 mm) for FP recessed escutcheons,
CCP, SWC, and SWC-2 cover plates.
Install F1 Res HSW sprinklers with a ceiling to deflector dis-
tance that complies with the hydraulic design criteria tables in
this bulletin. The flow arrow on deflector must point away from
near wall and "Top" marking must face the ceiling.
A 'leak tight" sprinkler joint can be obtained with the following
torque:
1/2" NPT and 1S07-1R1/2: 8-18 ft-lbs (ii —24 N-m)
3/4" NPT and 507-1 R3/4: 14-20 ft-lbs (19-27 N-m)
Do not tighten sprinklers over maximum recommended torque.
This may cause leakage or impairment of the sprinklers.
Do not install any glass bulb sprinklers where the bulb is
cracked or there is a loss of liquid from the bulb.
Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors to mini-
mize bulb damage during shipping, handling and installation.
Remove this protection at the time the sprinkler system is
placed in service. Removal of the protectors before this time
may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. RASCO wrenches
are designed to install sprinklers when protectors are in place.
Remove protectors by undoing the clasp by hand. Do not use
tools to remove the protectors.
Maintenance
Reliable Model F1 Res Sprinklers should be inspected and the
sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25, 13,
13D, and 13R, 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 vacuum-
ing without touching the sprinkler.
Replace any sprinkler which has been painted (other than
factory applied). Properly installed CCP, SWC, and SWC-2
cover plates will have an air gap that is required for proper
operation, do not seal the gap or paint the cover plates.
Bulletin 135 Page 14 of 15
October 2019 www.reliablesprinkler.com
Replace any sprinkler which has been damaged, where
cracks are observed in the glass bulb, or when liquid has
been lost from the glass bulb.
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 inadver-
tent operation or non-operation during a fire event.
