ity glass-bulb and low profile decorative design. The Fl Res
Horizontal Sidewall sprinklers (Figs. 5, 6 & 7) are equally attrac-
tive when above ceiling piping cannot be used.
The 3mm glass-bulb pendent sprinklers permit the efficient use
of residential water supplies for sprinkler coverage in residential
fire protection design.
The low flow Fl Res sprinklers are specially engineered for fast
thermal response to meet the sensitive fire protection applica-
tion needs of the latest residential market standards (UL 1626
Standard). Upon fire conditions, rising heat causes a sprinkler's
heat-sensitive element, glass bulb or link to actuate, releasing the
waterway for water flow onto the deflector, evenly distributing the
discharged water to control a fire.
Technical Data:
Application
Model El Res Sprinklers are used for Residential Fire Pro-
tection according to UL 1626 Standard*. Be sure that ori-
fice size, temperature rating, deflector style and sprinkler
type are in accordance with the latest published standards
of The National Fire Protection Association or the approving
authority having jurisdiction.
Installation
Models Fl Res sprinklers are to be installed as shown.
Model Fl F2 and FP Escutcheons, illustrated herewith,
are the only recessed escutcheons to be used with Model
Fl Res sprinklers. Use of any other recessed escutcheon
will void all approvals and warranties. For installing Model
Fl Res Pendent sprinklers use only the Model D sprinkler
Wrench; for installing Models Fl Res Recessed Pendent,
CCP & SWC sprinklers use only the Model GFR2 sprinkler
wrench; for installing Model Fl Res Recessed HSW sprin-
klers use only the Model GFR2 Sprinkler Wrench. Use of
wrenches other than those specified may damage these
sprinklers. Install Fl Res 44 with a ceiling to deflector dis-
tance of 4" - 12". Flow arrow on deflector must point away
from near wall and 'Top" marking must face ceiling.

Res 44 Sprinklers should be inspected quarterly, and th
sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFP
25, 13, 13D, and 13R. Do not clean sprinkler with soa
and water, Ammonia or any other cleaning fluids. Remov
dust by using a soft brush or gentle vacuuming. Remov
any sprinkler which has been painted (other than factor
applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare sprir
klers should be maintained to allow quick replacemer
of damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installatior
sprinklers should remain in the original cartons and pad
aging until used. This will minimize the potential for dad

Product Description
Model RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 Concealed Residen-
tial Sprinklers are fast response residential fusible solder
link automatic sprinklers. Residential sprinklers differ
from standard sprinklers primarily in their response time
and water distribution patterns.
Model RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 sprinklers discharge
water in a hemispherical pattern below the sprinkler de-
flector. Residential distribution patterns are higher and
generally contain a finer droplet size than standard sprin-
kler patterns.
The combination of speed of operation and high dis-
charge pattern required for residential sprinklers has
demonstrated, in fire testing, an ability for controlling
residential fires, and thereby providing significant evacu-
ation time for occupants.
The RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 Sprinklers provide the
best form of fire protection by combining an attractive ap-
pearance and ½" (13mm) of cover adjustment for ease
of installation. The small diameter cover plate is easily
and positively attached and blends into the ceiling, con-
cealing the most dependable fire protection available, an
automatic sprinkler system.
The RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 are UL Listed Residen-
tial Sprinklers to be installed in the residential portions
of any occupancy in accordance with NFPA 13, 13R, &
13D.
The RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 can reduce the need
for precise cutting of drop nipples. The threaded cover
plate assembly can be adjusted without tools to fit ac-
curately against the ceiling. The fire protection system
need not be shut down to adjust or remove the cover
plate assembly.
The Reliable Automatic Sprinkler Co., Inc., 103 Fairview Park Drive, Elmsford, New York 10523
Application and Installation
The RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49, for residential instal-
lations, use a 165°F (74°C) fusible solder link in a tun-
ing fork style sprinkler frame with a drop-down deflector.
This assembly is recessed into the ceiling and concealed
by a flat cover plate. The cover plate is attached to the
skirt, using 135°F (57°C) ordinary temperature classifica-
tion solder. When the ceiling temperature rises, the solder
holding the cover plate releases the cover allowing the
deflector to drop into position and exposing the sprinkler
inside to ceiling temperature. The subsequent operation
of the solder link opens the waterway and causes the de-
flector to drop into position to distribute the discharging
water in a hemispherical pattern below the sprinkler de-
flector. Any adjustment of thread engagement between
the cover plate and cup will assure that the drop-down
deflector is properly located below the ceiling. The resi-
dential distribution pattern contains a finer droplet size
than a standard sprinkler, and the pattern produces sig-
nificantly higher wall wetting.
After a 2 /8 inch diameter hole is cut in the ceiling, the
sprinkler is to be installed with the Model FC Wrench.
When installing a sprinkler, the wrench is first positioned
into the sprinkler/cup assembly and around the hexago-
nal body of the sprinkler frame. The Wrench must bottom
out against the cup in order to ensure proper, safe instal-
lation. The sprinkler is then tightened into the pipe fitting.
When inserting or removing the wrench from the sprin-
kler/cup assembly, care should be taken to prevent dam-
age to the sprinkler. DO NOT WRENCH ON ANY OTHER
PART OF THE SPRINKLER/CUP ASSEMBLY. MODEL
RFC30, RFC43 AND RFC49 CONCEALED SPRINKLERS
MUST BE INSTALLED ONLY WITH 135°F RATED COV-
ERS.
Note: A leak tight 1/2" NPT (R1/2) sprinkler joint can be ob-
tained with a torque of 8-18 ft-lbs (10,8 - 24,4 N-m). Do not
tighten sprinklers over maximum recommended torque. It
may cause leakage or impairment of the sprinklers.
Cover assemblies provide up to 1/2 (13mm) of adjust-
ment. Turn the cover clockwise until the flange is in con-
tact with the ceiling. For the push-on/thread-off option,
the cover assembly is pushed onto the cup and final ad-
justment is made by turning the cover clockwise until the
skirt flange makes full contact with the ceiling. Cover re-
moval requires turning in the counter-clockwise direction.
In ceilings that have a plenum space above the sprin-
kler, the plenum space may have neutral or negative
pressurization but must not be positively pressurized.
Inspect all sprinklers after installation to ensure that the
gap between the cover plate and ceiling and the 4 slots
in the cup are all open and free from any air flow impedi-
ment.

Maintenance
Model RFC30, RFC43 and RFC49 Concealed Sprin
klers should be inspected quarterly and the sprinkle
system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25. Do no
clean sprinklers with soap and water, ammonia or an
other cleaning fluids. Remove dust by using a soft brusF
or gentle vacuuming. Remove any sprinkler cover plat
assembly which has been painted (other than factory ap
plied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare sprin
klers should be maintained to allow quick replacemen
of damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installation
sprinklers should be maintained in the original carton
and packaging until used to minimize the potential fo
damage to sprinklers that would cause improper opera
