ppuicaiion
The Reliable Model 04
Concealer® is the most versatile
concealed sprinkler available. It
provides the best form of fire pro-
tection while offering an attractive
appearance and 1/21? (13mm) of
cover adjustment for ease of instal- -: -
lation. The adjustable 1" NPT inlet
versions have iy" (38mm) of total
adjustment and also eliminates the need for a reducing cou-
pling. The small diameter Push-on/Thread-off cover plate
assembly is easily attached and blends into the ceiling, con-
cealing the most dependable fire protection available, an
automatic sprinkler system.

The Concealer® is designed for use where aesthetic ap-
pearance is important. Offices, hospitals, motels and res-
taurants are but a few of the applications where it can be
used. It is available in different orifice sizes allowing the de-
signer to optimize system performance, thereby achieving a
most efficient installation.
The Concealer® can eliminate the need for precise cutting
of drop nipples. The Push-on/Thread-off cover plate assem-
bly can be adjusted without tools so it mates accurately with
the ceiling. The fire protection system need not be shut
down to adjust or remove the cover plate assembly.
Product Description
The Reliable Model 04 Concealer® uses the proven
Model 0 fusible element in a standard style sprinkler frame
with a drop-down deflector. This assembly is recessed into
the ceiling and concealed by a flat cover plate. The
Push-on/Thread-off cover plate and sprinkler cup assem-
blies are held tight by a flexible tooth engagement to the
threaded cup. This threaded engagement provides 1/2'?
(13mm) of cover adjustment. The flat cover plate is attached
to the skirt using an ordinary temperature classification sol-
der. This results in a strong cover plate assembly with an or-
dinary temperature rating, and an intermediate temperature
sprinkler which can be installed in 150°F (66°C) environ-
ments. When the ceiling temperature rises, the solder hold-
ing the cover plate to the skirt melts, the flat cover plate
released thus exposing the sprinkler inside to the rising am-
bient temperature.
The subsequent fusing of the sprinkler element opens the
waterway and causes the deflector to drop into position to
distribute the discharging water. Any secure engagement of
the threads between the cover plate and cup will assure that
the drop—down deflector is properly located below the ceil-
ing when a sprinkler operates.

Installation
Do not install The Concealers in ceilings which have positive
pressure in the space in the space above.
After a 2/ inch diameter hole is cut in the ceiling, the sprinkler
is to be installed with the Model G4 Wrench. The wrench has
drive tangs which insert into cup slots. When installing a sprin-
kler the wrench is first positioned into the sprinkler/cup assembly
until the wrench tangs engage drive slots in the top of the cup
(there are two sets of mating drive slots in the cup). The sprinkler
is then tightened into the pipe fitting. When inserting or removing
the wrench from the sprinkler/cup assembly care should be
taken to prevent damage to the sprinkler. DO NOT WRENCH
ON ANY OTHER PART OF THE SPRINKLER/CUP ASSEMBLY
The adjustable inlet versions are similar to the standard Model
G4 except that an addition 1" (25mm) of adjustment is provided
by means of a telescoping inlet section that threads in or out of a
stationary coupling reducer (either 1 male or 1 female) as shown
in Fig. 2 or Fig. 3. These sprinklers must be installed before the
ceiling is in place, by wrenching on only the coupling reducer

hex flats. After the ceiling has been installed with holes for the
sprinkler, each telescoping inlet section is to be adjusted with the
G4 Wrench. Install the push-on/thread-off cover plate assembly
over the sprinkler by holding and pressing it straight up into the
cup. Final adjustment of each cover assembly is made by hand
turning it clockwise until it is tight against the ceiling.
Maintenance
The Model G4 Concealer should be inspected quarterly 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 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 re-
placement of damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installa-
tion, sprinklers should be maintained in the original cartons and
packaging to minimize the potential for damage to sprinklers that
would cause improper operation or non-operation.

Product Description
Today's modern buildings demand that a sprin kler not
only provide the best fire protection but also achieve an
attractive appearance. Reliable's Model G Recessed
Sprinkler meets both criteria. It combines the fire fighting
ca pa bil ityof aproven sprin klerwith thesmall estpracti ca-
ble recessing unit. Its small profile does not disrupt the
overhead aesthetics, and yet one vertical glance upward
gives a visual assurance of the finest in fire protection, an
automatic sprinkler system.
The Model G Recessed Sprinkler's threaded
two-piece construction makes initial field installation a
very easy task. it allows ceilings panels to be removed
without shutting down the fire protection thus facilitating
maintenance of above ceiling services. The adjustable
one inch NPT in let versions have one and one half inches
of adjustment which eliminates both the normally re-
quired reducing coupling and the need to accurately cut
drop nip pies. This sprin klercan bead justed at terthe ceil-
ing is in place and even while the system is pressurized
eliminating the final corrections to pipe hangers or ceil-
ings that might otherwise be required.
The Reliable Model G Automatic Sprinkler is the heart
of the Recessed Sprinkler. This sprinkler utilizes the cen-
ter strut solder in compression principle of construction.
The fusible alloy, captured inthecyl inder of asmall solder
capsule by stainless steel ball, acts as the trigger of the
sprin kler. when the fusible alloy melts, the sprin kier op er-
ating parts sprinkler free from the sprinkler clearing the
waterway and allowing the deflector to distribute the dis-
charging water.

Installation
The Reliable Model G Recessed Sprinkler has been
designed with ease of installation in mind. A choice of
three inlets with up to one inch adjustment coupled with
the 1/2" (13mm) escutcheon adjustment enables most
system to be installed using pre-cut drop nipples. The
adjustment can be accomplished after the ceiling instal-
lation and while the system is pressurized thereby provid-
ing sprin klerprotection before con struction is completed.
The Non-Adjustable inlet version (Figure 1) Con sists of
the Reliable Model G Sprinkler with an attached cup re-
cessed in the ceiling. A ceiling hole of 21/2"(67mm) di am-
eter is recommended.
The Adjustablein letversion uses the same sprin Her as
the Non-Adjustable inlet version uses the same sprinkler
as the Non-Adjustable in lettype ex ceptthe 1 of additional
adjustment is provided by a telescoping sprinkler inlet
section that threads in or out of a stationary Coupling Re-
ducer (either 1 male or 1 female) as shown in fig ures 2 or
3. The Sprin Her-Cup as sem blyco mes attached to the in-
let Coupling Reducer Comes attached to the inlet Cou-
pling Reducer and is retained from separation past its
maximum adjustment length by a snap ring. This combi-
nation is simply installed after the system drop nipple, el -
bow or tee has been "roughed in" to the dimensions
shown in figures 2 or 3. Wrenching means are provided
by hex flats on the coupling reducer as depicted in the
figures-do not wrench on any other part of the sprinkler.
After the ceiling tiles have been cut and in stalled in place
(a 21/4" [57mm)hole is recommended), the sprinkler can
be adjusted using the RC-1 Concealed Wrench.
When using the wrench in this application, however,
do not over-torque beyond the adjustment stops.
Figure 4 shows a ½" NPT (R½) non-adjustable inlet
sprinkler, with the attached sprinkler cup combination in -
serted into the special Reliable Model RC-1 Installation
Wrench. This wrench must be used. The wrenching
pads of the sprinkler easily slip into the rectangular
cut-outsofthewrench as theoutside diameter locates the
threaded cup. A ½" (13mm) drive ratchet can then be
used for installation and tightening.
Figure 5 shows the removal of the wrench. Care
should be taken during this procedure to avoid hittingthe
deflector with the wrench. The wrench should be lowered
until it clears the sprinkler. The installation completed by
threading the escutcheon on until it contacts the ceiling.
To avoid leaving smudge marks on the ceiling, the Reli-
able Model FEA Flush Sprinkle Escutcheon Wrench
should be used. See Bulletin 205
Note:
1. Use hex wrench on Coupling Reducer to tighten Ad-
justable Sprinkler into fittings. Do not use RC-1
Wrench tor this purpose.
2 Do not install the Model G Recessed Sprinkler in ceil -
ings which have positive pressure in the space above.
Maintenance
The Model G Recessed Pendent Sprin Hers should be
inspected quarterly and the sprinkler system maintained
in ac cor dancewith N FPA 20. Do not clean sprinklers with
soap and water, ammo niaor anyother clean ing fluid. Re-
move any sprinkler that has been painted (other that fac -
tory applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare
sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick replace-
ment of dam agedorop er ated sprin Hers. Priorto instal Ia-
tion, sprinklers should be maintained in the original
cartons and packaging until used to minimize the poten-
tial for damage to sprinklers that would cause improper
operation or non-operation.
