Series TY-B - 56 and 8.0 K-factor
Upright and Pendent Intermediate Level Sprinklers
Standard Response
General
Description
The Series TV-B, 5.6 and 8.0 K-factor
Upright and Pendent Intermediate
Level Sprinklers described in this data
sheet are automatic sprinklers of the
"standard response" 5 mm frangible
bulb type. They are "standard spray"
sprinklers intended for use in fire sprin-
kler systems designed in accordance
with the standard installation rules rec-
ognized by the applicable Listing or
Approval agency (e.g., UL Listing is
based on NFPA requirements). Both
the Pendent and Upright Sprinklers
produce a hemispherical water distri-
bution pattern below the deflector.
Intermediate Level Sprinklers are pri-
marily designed for use in rack storage
sprinkler systems, where their ther-
mally sensitive elements must be
shielded from the water spay of higher
elevation sprinklers which could oper-
ate earlier during a fire. Intermediate
Level Sprinklers are also used in appli-
cations such as beneath open gridded
catwalks.
Corrosion resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend the
life of copper alloy sprinklers beyond
that which would otherwise be ob-
tained when exposed to corrosive at-
mospheres. Although corrosion resis-
tant coated sprinklers have passed the
standard corrosion tests of the appli-
cable approval agencies, the testing is
not representative of all possible cor-
rosive atmospheres. Consequently, it
is recommended that the end user be
consulted with respect to the suitability
of these corrosion resistant coatings
for any given corrosive environment.
The effects of ambient temperature,
concentration of chemicals, and
gas/chemical velocity, should be con-
sidered, as a minimum, along with the
corrosive nature of the chemical to
which the sprinklers will be exposed.
WARNINGS
The Series TV-B Sprinklers described
herein must be installed and main-
tained in compliance with this docu-
ment, as well as with the applicable
standards of the National Fire Protec-
tion Association, in addition to the
standards of any other authorities hav-
ing jurisdiction. Failure to do so may
impair the integrity of these devices.
The owner is responsible for maintain-
ing their fire protection system and de-
vices in proper operating condition.
The installing contractor or sprinkler
manufacturer should be contacted
relative to any questions.

Operation
The glass Bulb contains a fluid which
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
fluid expands sufficiently to shatter the
glass Bulb, which then allows the
sprinkler to activate and water to flow.
Design
Criteria
The Series TY-B Pendent and Upright
Intermediate Level Sprinklers are in-
tended for fire protection systems de-
signed in accordance with the stand-
ard installation rules recognized by the
applicable Listing or Approval agency
(e.g., UL Listing is based on the re-
quirements of NFPA 13, and FM Ap-
proval is based on the requirements of
FM's Loss Prevention Data Sheets).
Installation
The Series TV-B Sprinklers must be
installed in accordance with the follow-
ing instructions:
NOTES
Do not install any bulb type sprinkler if
the bulb is cracked or there is a loss of
liquid from the bulb. With the sprinkler
held horizontally, a small air bubble
should be present. The diameter of the
air bubble is approximately 1/16 inch
(1,6 mm) for the 135°F/57°C to 3/32
inch (2,4 mm) for the 360°F/1820C
temperature ratings.
A leak tight 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint
should be obtained with a torque of 7
to 14 ft.lbs. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm). A max!-
mum of 21 ft. lbs. (28,5 Nm) of torque
may be used to install sprinklers with
1/2 NPT connections. A leak tight 3/4
inch NPT sprinkler joint should be ob-
tained with a torque of 10 to 20 ft.lbs.
(13,4 to 26,8 Nm). A maximum of 30
ft.lbs. (40,7 Nm) of torque is to be used
to install sprinklers with 3/4 NPT con-
nections. Higher levels of torque may
distort the sprinkler inlet with conse-
quent leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
- Upright Sprinklers -
The Series TV-B Intermediate Level
Upright Sprinklers must be installed in
accordance with the following instruc-
tions.
Step 1. With pipe thread sealant ap-
plied to the pipe threads, hand tighten
the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting.
Step 2. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 3),
except that an 8 or 10 inch adjustable
Crescent wrench is to be used for wax
coated sprinklers. With reference to
Figure 1 or 2, the W-Type 6 Sprinkler
Wrench or the Crescent wrench, as
applicable, is to be applied to the
wrench flats.
- Pendent Sprinklers -
The Series TV-B Intermediate Level
Pendent Sprinklers must be installed
in accordance with the following in-
structions.
Step 1. Thread the S2 Shield onto the
sprinkler threads with the stamped
markings toward the deflector and just
to the end of the threads. The final
assembly step is easier to accomplish
if the Shield is not disengaged by con-
tinuing to turn the Shield past the
threads.
Step 2. Roll the 0-Ring over the sprin-
kler threads until it seats against the
Shield.
Step 3. With pipe thread sealant ap-
plied to the pipe threads, hand tighten
the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting.
Step 4. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 3).
With reference to Figure 1 or 2, the
W-Type 6 Sprinkler Wrench is to be
applied to the wrench flats.
Step 5. Rotate the S2 Shield clockwise
(looking up) so that it slightly com-
presses the 0-Ring between the
Shield and sprinkler fitting.
—Wax Coated Sprinklers—
When installing wax coated sprinklers
with the adjustable Crescent wrench,
additional care needs to be exercised
to prevent damage to the wax coating
on the sprinkler wrench flats or frame
arms and, consequently, exposure of
bare metal to the corrosive environ-
ment. The jaws of the wrench should
be opened sufficiently wide to pass
over the wrench flats without damag-
ing the wax coating. Before wrench
tightening the sprinkler, the jaws of the
wrench are to be adjusted to just con-
tact the sprinkler wrenching flanges.
After wrench tightening the sprinkler,
loosen the wrench jaws before remov-
ing the wrench.
After installation, the sprinkler wrench
flats and frame arms must be in-
spected and the wax coating re-
touched (repaired) whenever the coat-
ing has been damaged and bare metal
is exposed. The wax coating on the
wrench flats can be retouched by gen-
tly applying a heated 1/8 inch diameter
steel rod to the areas of wax that have

been damaged, to smooth it back over
areas where bare metal is exposed.
NOTES
Only retouching of the wax coating ap-
plied to the wrench flats and frame
arms is permitted, and the retouching
is to be performed only at the time of
the initial sprinkler installation.
The steel rod should be heated only to
the point at which it can begin to melt
the wax, and appropriate precautions
need to be taken, when handling the
heated rod, in order to prevent the
installer from being burned.
If attempts to retouch the wax coating
with complete coverage are unsuc-
cessful, additional wax can be ordered
in the form of a wax stick (the end of
which is color coded). Only the correct
color coded wax is to be used, and
retouching of wrench flats and frame
arms is only permitted at the time of
initial sprinkler installation. With the
steel rod heated as previously de-
scribed, touch the rod to the area re-
quiring additional wax with the rod an-
gled downward, and then touch the
wax stick to the rod approximately one-
half inch away from the area requiring
retouching. The wax will melt and run
down onto the sprinkler.

Care and
Maintenance
The Series TV-B Sprinklers must be
maintained and serviced in accord-
ance with the following instructions:
NOTES
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance
work on the fire protection system that
it controls, permission to shut down the
affected fire protection system must be
obtained from the proper authorities
and all personnel who may be affected
by this action must be notified.
Sprinklers that are found to be leaking
or exhibiting visible signs of corrosion
must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
shipped or stored where their tempera-
ture will exceed 1000F/380C and they
must never be painted, plated, coated
or otherwise altered after leaving the
factory. Modified sprinklers must be re-
placed. Sprinklers that have been ex-
posed to corrosive products of com-
bustion, but have not operated, should
be replaced if they cannot be com-
pletely cleaned by wiping the sprinkler
with a cloth or by brushing it with a soft
bristle brush.
Care must be exercised to avoid dam-
age to the sprinklers - before, during,
and after installation. Sprinklers dam-
aged by dropping, striking, wrench
twist/slippage, or the like, must be re-
placed. Also, replace any sprinkler that
has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb. (Ref. Installation
Section).
Frequent visual inspections are rec-
ommended to be initially performed for
corrosion resistant coated sprinklers,
after the installation has been com-
pleted, to verify the integrity of the cor-
rosion resistant coating. Thereafter,
annual inspections per NFPA 25
should suffice; however, instead of in-
specting from the floor level, a random
sampling of close-up visual inspec-
tions should be made, so as to better
determine the exact sprinkler condi-
tion and the long term integrity of the
corrosion resistant coating, as it may
be affected by the corrosive conditions
present.
The owner is responsible for the in-
spection, testing, and maintenance of
their fire protection system and de-
vices in compliance with this docu-
ment, as well as with the applicable
standards of the National Fire Protec-
tion Association (e.g., NFPA 25), in
addition to the standards of any other
authorities having jurisdiction. The in-
stalling contractor or sprinkler manu-
facturer should be contacted relative to
any questions.
It is recommended that automatic
sprinkler systems be inspected,
tested, and maintained by a qualified
Inspection Service.
