these coatings have been investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres
and are listed/approved as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval
Charts. (Note: FM Global approves ENT finish as corrosion resistant. FM
Global has no approval classification for PTFE and Polyester coatings as corro-
sion resistant.)

INSTALLATION
Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards.
OPERATION
During fire conditions, the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb expands, causing the glass to shatter, releasing the pip cap and
sealing spring assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the sprinkler deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern
to extinguish or control the fire.
INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE
Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements.
AVAILABILITY
The Viking Microfast® Quick Response Pendent Sprinkler VK302 is available through a network of domestic and international dis-
tributors. See The Viking Corporation web site for the closest distributor or contact The Viking Corporation.

2 Based on NFPA-13. Other limits may apply, depending on fire loading, sprinkler location, and other requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction.
Refer to specific installation standards.
3 The corrosion-resistant coatings have passed the standard corrosion test required by the approving agencies indicated in the Approval Charts. These
tests cannot and do not represent all possible corrosive environments. Prior to installation, verify through the end-user that the coatings are com-
patible with or suitable for the proposed environment. For automatic sprinklers, the coatings indicated are applied to the exposed exterior surfaces
only. Note that the spring is exposed on sprinklers with Polyester, PTFE, and ENT coatings. For ENT coated automatic sprinklers, the waterway is

DESCRIPTION
Viking Freedom® Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK494 is a small
thermosensitive, glass-bulb residential sprinkler designed for installation on concealed
pipe systems where the appearance of a smooth ceiling is desired. The orifice design,
with a K-Factor of 4.9 (70.6 metric*), allows the sprinkler's efficient use of available
water supplies for the hydraulically designed fire-protection system. The fast
response glass bulb operating element and special deflector characteristics meet
the challenges of residential sprinkler standards.
The sprinkler is pre-assembled with a threaded adapter for installation with a
low-profile small-diameter cover assembly installed flush to the ceiling. The two-
piece design allows installation and testing of the sprinkler prior to installation of
the cover plate. The "push-on", "thread-off' design of the concealed cover plate
assembly allows easy installation of the cover plate after the system has been
tested and the ceiling finish has been applied, while also providing up to 1/2" (13
mm) of vertical adjustment. The cover assembly can be removed and reinstalled,
allowing temporary removal of ceiling panels without taking the sprinkler system out
of service or removing the sprinkler. The Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coating
has been investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and is C-UL-US-EU
Listed as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval Charts. The ENT finish is
only available for the sprinkler assembly, the cover plate is not plated.
LISTINGS AND APPROVALS
UL Listed (C-UL-US-EU): Category VKKW
EU Refer to the Approval Charts and Design Criteria on for C-UL-US-EU Listing
requirements that must be followed.

Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards.
OPERATION
During fire conditions, when the temperature around the sprinkler approaches its operating temperature, the cover plate detaches,
releasing the deflector. Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb to expand,
causing the glass to shatter, releasing the yoke and pip cap and sealing spring assembly. . Water flowing through the sprinkler
orifice strikes the deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern over a specific area of coverage determined by the water supply pres-
sure at the sprinkler to extinguish or control the fire.
INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE
Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements.

2 Based on NFPA-13, NFPA 13R, and NFPA 13D. Other limits may apply, depending on fire loading, sprinkler location, and other requirements of the Authority Having
Jurisdiction. Refer to specific installation standards.
Maximum ambient temperature for cover assembly is 100 "F (38 "C).
Part number shown is the base part number. For complete part number, refer to current Viking price list schedule.
The corrosion resistant coatings have passed the standard corrosion test required by the approving agencies indicated in the Approval Charts, These tests cannot and
do not represent all possible corrosive environments. Prior to installation, verify through the end-user that the coatings are compatible with or suitable for the proposed
environment. For automatic sprinklers, the ENT coating is applied to all exposed exterior surfaces, including the waterway. For ENT coated sprinklers, the Belleville spring
is exposed.

DESIGN CRITERIA
(Also refer to the Approval Chart on page 3)
UL Listing Requirements (C-UL-US-EU):
When using Viking Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK494 for systems designed to NFPA 13D or NFPA 13R, apply the listed areas of cover-
age and minimum water supply requirements shown in the Approval Chart.
For systems designed to NFPA 13: The number of design sprinklers is to be the four contiguous most hydraulically demanding sprinklers. The minimum
required discharge from each of the four sprinklers is to be the greater of the following:
The flow rates given in the Approval Chart for NFPA 13D and NFPA 13R applications for each listed area of coverage, or
Calculated based on a minimum discharge of 0.1 gpm/sq. ft. over the "design area" in accordance with sections 8.5.2.1 or 8.6.2.1.2 of NFPA 13.
Minimum distance between residential sprinklers: 8 ft. (2.4 m).
NOTE: Concealed sprinklers must be installed in neutral or negative pressure plenums only.
