Product Description
The F156, F142, F1XLH & F128 Series Glass Bulb
Sprinkler combines the durability of a standard sprinkler
with the attractive low profile of a decorative sprinkler.
Whether installed on exposed piping or in an office ceil-
ing, it is functional and attractive.
Beautifully versatile is the description for the Reliable
Models F156, F142, F1XLH & F128 Series Recessed
glass bulb sprinkler. Recessing the F156, F142, F1XLH &
F128 Series enhances its already low profile decorative
appearance, and facilitates a rapid and perfect installa-
tion.
The recessed escutcheon of the Models F156, F142,
F1XLH & F128 are highly adjustable. The two piece con-
struction makes field installation a very easy and rapid
task. This also allows ceiling panels to later be removed
without shutting down the fire protection system, thus fa-
cilitating maintenance of above ceiling services.

The F156, F142, F1XLH & F128 Series Automatic Sprin-
kler utilizes a 5.0 mm frangible glass bulb. The glass bulb
consists of an accurately controlled amount of special
fluid hermetically sealed inside a precisely manufactured
glass capsule. This glass bulb is specially constructed to
provide fast thermal response.
At normal temperatures, the glass bulb contains the
fluid in both the liquid phase and in the vapor phase. The
vapor phase can be seen as a small bubble. As heat is
applied, the liquid expands forcing the bubble smaller
and smaller as the liquid pressure increases. Continued
heating forces the liquid to push out against the bulb,
causing the glass to shatter, opening the waterway and
allowing the deflector to distribute the discharging water.
The F156, F142, F1XLH & F128 Series Sprinkler tem-
perature rating is identified by the color of the glass bulb
capsule as well as frame color where applicable.

Product Description
Reliable Model Fl FR series sprinklers
are quick-response automatic sprin-
klers with a glass bulb thermal element.
Model F1FR series sprinklers are Stan-
dard Spray sprinklers, with the excep-
tion of the Model Fl FR56 Conventional XLH Recessed
sprinkler which is an Old-style/Conven- Pendent FP
tional sprinkler.
The Model Fl FR Series automatic sprinklers utilize a 3.0
mm frangible glass bulb. These sprinklers have demonstrat-
ed response times in laboratory tests which are five to ten
times faster than standard response sprinklers. This quick
response enables the Model Fl FR Series sprinklers to apply
water to a fire faster than standard-response sprinklers of the
same temperature rating.
The glass bulb consists of an accurately controlled amount
of special fluid hermetically sealed inside a precisely man-
ufactured glass capsule. This glass bulb is specially con-
structed to provide fast thermal response.
Reliable Automatic Sprinkler Co., Inc., 103 Fairview Park Drive, Elmsford, New York 10523
At normal temperatures, the glass bulb contains the fluid
in both the liquid and vapor phases. The vapor phase can
be seen as a small bubble. As heat is applied, the liquid
expands, forcing the bubble smaller and smaller as the liq-
uid pressure increases. Continued heating forces the liquid
to push out against the bulb, causing the glass to shatter,
opening the waterway and allowing the deflector to distrib-
ute the discharging water.
Model Fl FR Series sprinklers provide a wide range of op-
tions where quick-response, glass bulb sprinklers are used:
Pendent, recessed pendent, upright, horizontal
sidewall, and vertical sidewall deflectors
K-factors of 2.8 (40 metric), 4.0 (57 metric), 4.2 (60
metric), and 5.6 (80 metric)
Flush, recessed, and concealed installations
See the Design and Installation Information table in this
Bulletin for information on the approvals and availability of
specific Model Fl FR series sprinkler configurations.
Model Fl FR Recessed Pendent and Recessed Horizon-
tal Sidewall sprinklers are required to be used with Reliable
Model Fl, F2, or FP recessed escutcheons. See the Re-
cessed Escutcheon Data table in this Bulletin for listing and
approval information with each specific Model Fl FR series
sprinkler. Model Fl and F2 recessed escutcheons, shown in
Fig. 1 and 3, are a friction fit assembly allowing for 3/4-inch
(19mm) and 1/2-inch (12.7mm) of adjustment, respectively.
Model FP recessed escutcheons, shown in Fig. 2, provide a
1/2-inch (12.7mm) threaded adjustment.
Model Fl FR56 Concealed Pendent and Model Fl FR56LL
Concealed Pendent sprinklers are required to be used with
Model COP cover plates. A standard profile Model COP cov-
er plate is available that provides up to 1/2-inch (12.7mm) of
cover plate adjustment. In addition, a low profile Model COP
cover plate is also available that provides up to 5/16-inch
(8.0mm) of cover plate adjustment. See the Design and In-
stallation Information and Listed and Approved Temperature
Ratings tables in this Bulletin for further information on ap-
proved cover plate options.
Application
Model F1FR Series sprinklers are intended for use in
accordance with NFPA 13, FM Property Loss Prevention
Data Sheets, and the requirements of the Authority Hav-
ing Jurisdiction. Care must be exercised that the k-factor,
temperature rating, deflector style, and sprinkler type are
in accordance with the requirements of the applicable
design and installation standards. In addition, Model
Fl FR Series sprinklers must be used in accordance with
their listings and approvals, as well as the information
provided in this Bulletin.
Installation
Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors or pro-
tective caps to minimize bulb damage during shipping, han-
dling and installation. Reliable sprinkler installation wrench-
es are designed to install sprinklers with bulb protectors in
place. Remove the bulb protector at the time when the sprin-
kler system is placed in service for fire protection. Removal
of the bulb protector before this time may leave the bulb vul-
nerable to damage. Remove bulb protectors by undoing the
clasp by hand. Do not use tools to remove bulb protectors.
Model Fl FR Series sprinklers must be installed with the
Reliable sprinkler installation wrench identified in the Design
and Installation Information table in this Bulletin. Any other
wrench may damage the sprinkler. A leak tight sprinkler joint
can be obtained with a torque of 8 to 18 lb-ft (11 to 24 N-m).
Do not tighten sprinklers over the maximum recommended
installation torque. Exceeding the maximum recommended
installation torque may cause leakage or impairment of the
sprinkler.
Recessed Sprinklers
Model Fl FR Series Recessed sprinklers are to be installed
as shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, or Fig. 3, as applicable to the spe-
cific model being installed. The Recessed Escutcheon Data
table in the Bulletin identifies the only recessed escutcheons
that are permitted to be used with each Model Fl FR Series
Recessed sprinkler. The use of any other recessed escutch-
eon will void all approvals and negate all warranties.
Concealed Sprink!ers
Model Fl FR Series Concealed Pendent sprinklers are to
be installed as shown in Fig. 4 or Fig. 5, as applicable to the
selected cover plate. Model Fl FR56 Concealed Pendent
and Model Fl FR56LL Concealed Pendent sprinklers have
a factory-installed Model CCP cup. A protective cap is in-
stalled at the factory that should remain on the sprinkler until
the sprinkler is installed and should then be reinstalled on
the sprinkler until the cover plate is installed. The concealed
sprinkler assemblies are completed by the installation of a
Model COP push-on/thread-off cover plate assembly. The
cover plate and sprinkler cup assemblies are joined using
a cover plate skirt with flexible tabs for threaded engage-
ment. A choice of two Model COP cover plate assemblies
provides either 1/2-inch (13mm) or 5/8-inch (8mm) of cover
adjustment. Do not install Model Fl FR Series Concealed
Pendent sprinklers in ceilings which have positive pressure
in the space above.
Model Fl FR Series Concealed Pendent sprinklers require a
2-5/8-inch (67mm) diameter hole to be cut in the ceiling. The
Model RC1 wrench is used to engage the sprinkler wrenching
surfaces and to install the sprinkler in the fitting. Remove the
protective cap to install the sprinkler, then reinstall the protective
cap until the cover plate is installed. When inserting or remov-
ing the wrench from the sprinkler/cup assembly care should be
taken to prevent damage to the sprinkler. Do not wrench any
other part of the sprinkler/cup assembly. Installation is com-
pleted by removing the protective cap from the sprinkler and
pushing the cover plate onto the cup. Final adjustment is made
by hand turning the cover plate until the skirt flange makes full
contact with the ceiling. Cover plate removal requires turning the
cover plate in the counter clockwise direction. After installation,
inspect all sprinklers to ensure that there is a gap between the
cover plate and ceiling and that the four cup slots are open and
free from any air flow impediment to the space above.
Concealed cover plate/cup assemblies are listed only for
use with specific sprinklers. The use of any concealed cover
plate/cup assembly other than the Reliable Model CCP with
Model Fl FR56 Concealed Pendent and Model Fl FRS6LL
Concealed Pendent sprinklers or the use of the Model COP
Concealed cover plate assembly on any sprinkler with
which it is not specifically listed my prevent good fire pro-
tection and will void all guarantees, warranties, listings and
approvals.

The Model Fl FR 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 using a soft brush
or gentle vacuuming. Replace any sprinkler which has been
painted (other than factory applied) or damaged in any way.
A stock of spare sprinklers should be maintained to allow
quick replacement of damaged or operated sprinklers.

Installation
Model G5 series sprinklers are intended to be installed in
accordance with NFPA 13, FM Global Property Loss Prevention
Data Sheets, and the requirements of other applicable
authorities having jurisdiction. Model G5 series sprinklers must
not be installed in ceilings with positive pressure in the space
above.
Model G5 series sprinklers are shipped with a protective cap
that should remain on the sprinkler until installed. The protective
cap should be replaced following installation of the sprinkler and
permanently removed only when the cover plate is installed
and the sprinkler system is placed in service following
construction.
Model G5 series sprinkler are installed with the Model FC wrench.
The use of any other wrench to installed Model G5 series sprinklers
is not permitted and may damage the sprinkler. Temporarily
remove the protective cap during installation of the sprinkler.
Insert 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 FC wrench is 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 specified in Table J.

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.
Model FC Wrench
Install the cover plate by hand, turning the cover in the
clockwise direction until it is tight against the ceiling. For Model
G5 QR Gasket and Model G5 SR Gasket cover plates, the
gasket should be attached to the flange of the cover plate skirt
only. Do not glue the gasket in place or allow the gasket to
overlap both the cover plate and the flange of the skirt.
Maintenance
Reliable Model G5 series sprinkler should be inspected and
the sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA
25, 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 vacuuming
without touching the sprinkler.
Replace any sprinkler or cover plate which has been painted
(other than factory applied). Properly installed Model G5
cover plates will have an air gap that is required for proper
operation, do not seal the gap or paint the cover plates. Model
G5 series sprinklers have holes in the cup that must remain
unobstructed.
Replace any sprinkler which has been damaged. A stock
of spare sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick re-
placement of damaged or operated sprinklers.
Failure to properly maintain sprinklers may result in inadvertent
operation or non-operation during a fire event.

*CAUTION*
RELIABLE DRY PENDENT AND DRY HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL SPRINKLERS MAY BE INSTALLED IN A LISTED
CPVC SPRINKLER FITTING, ONLY UPON VERIFICATION THAT THE FITTING DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE
SPRINKLER'S INLET.
Do not install dry sprinklers with standard inlets into CPVC fittings that have an internal obstruction; this will damag
the sprinkler, the fitting, or both.
Short inlet ("PL") versions of Reliable dry sprinklers are available that may or may not be compatible with fittings
having internal obstructions in existing installations. Sprinklers with the short inlet ("PL") should only be installed in
CPVC fittings of wet-pipe systems.
In all cases, verify sprinkler and fitting dimensions prior to installation to avoid interference.

kler's inlet (wet-pipe systems only) (gasket sealed

Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers must not be installed into el-
bows, welded outlets, or gasket sealed outlets. Installation of
the Model F3QR56 Dry sprinkler is not recommend in cop-
per pipe systems, as this may reduce the life expectancy of
the sprinkler.
In all dry-pipe system installations, the Model F3QR56 Dry
sprinkler must be installed with pbtrusion into the fitting in
accordance with Fig. 1 through Fig. 9 in this Bulletin. Do not
install Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers with the standard (long)
inlet fitting into CPVC fittings that have an internal obstruc-
tion (see Fig. 11); this will damage the sprinkler, the fitting,
or both. Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers are available with a
short "PL" inlet fitting for installation on CPVC fittings of wet-
pipe sprinkler systems only.
Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers connected to wet-pipe sys-
tems must be installed with the Exposed Minimum Barrel
Length required by Fig. 10 located in a Heated Area.
An orange protective clip is factory installed on the sprin-
kler to protect the glass bulb thermal element from dam-
age. The clip should remain in place during installation of
the sprinkler and be removed when the sprinkler system is
placed in service. Sprinklers with 3/4" NPT and 1S07-1 R3/4
inlets are supplied with a protective cap on the inlet that
must be removed before installation.
Use the following steps for installation:
Cut a hole in the wall or ceiling directly in-line with
the outlet of the fitting. See the Installation Data table
for the recommended hole diameter based on the es-
cutcheon or cover plate option selected.
Apply pipe joint compound or PTFE tape to the male
threads of the sprinkler's inlet fitting.
Install the sprinkler in the fitting using the installation
wrench specified in the Installation Data table. The
Model F3 and F3R wrenches are designed to be in-
serted into the groves in the sprinkler's wrench boss
as shown in Fig. 12. The Model XL02 wrench is de-
signed to fit into the cup and engage the wrench boss
as shown in Fig. 13. Do NOT wrench any part of the
sprinkler assembly other than the wrench boss. When
inserting or removing the wrench from the sprinkler,
care should be taken to prevent damage to the sprin-
kler. The sprinkler is then tightened into the pipe fitting
to achieve a leak free connection. The recommended
minimum to maximum installation torque is 22 - 30 lb-
ft (30-40 N-m) for 1" NPT and 1507-1 Ri sprinklers,
and 14- 20 lb-ft (19-27 N-m) for 3/4" NPT and IS07-
1R3/4 sprinklers.
3a. Alternatively, where access to the outer tube of
the sprinkler is available, the Model F3QR56 Dry
sprinkler may be installed using a pipe wrench.
The pipe wrench shall only be permitted to inter-
face with the galvanized steel outer tube portion of
the sprinkler (Item #8 in Fig. 16). Do NOT wrench
any other portion of the sprinkler assembly. A pipe
wrench can install the sprinkler into the fitting with
a large amount of torque; consideration should be
given to the need for future removal of the sprin-
kler because the installation torque will have to be
matched or exceeded to remove the sprinkler. The
recommended minimum to maximum installation
torque is 22 - 30 lb-ft (30 - 40 N-m) for 1" NPT
and lS07-1R1 sprinklers, and 14- 20 lb-ft (19-27
N-m) for 3/4" NPT and ISO7-1 R3/4 sprinklers.
Standard and Model HB escutcheons can be in-
stalled by slipping the escutcheon over the can until
the escutcheon is seated against the ceiling or wall.
Model Fl escutcheons are installed by pressing the
escutcheon onto the collar until the escutcheon is
seated against the ceiling or wall. The Model FP es-
cutcheon is installed by pressing or threading the es-
cutcheon into the cup by hand; the escutcheon can
be tightened against the ceiling or wall by turning the
escutcheon in a clockwise direction and removed by
turning the escutcheon in a counter-clockwise direc-
tion. To install the Model CCP cover plate, first remove
the protective clip. Install the Model CCP cover plate
on the sprinkler by pressing or threading the cover
plate into the cup by hand; the cover plate can be
tightened against the ceiling by turning the cover
plate in a clockwise direction and removed by turning
the cover plate in a counter-clockwise direction.
Remove the orange protective clip when placing the
sprinkler system in service.

Maintenance
The Model F3QR56 Dry Sprinklers should be inspected and the sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA 25.
Do not remove the factory applied thermally sensitive wax
fillet between the bulb supporting cup and the wrenching
boss. Do not replace this wax with a substitute substance.
An Alternate substance may interfere with proper operation
of the sprinkler. Do not clean sprinklers with soap and water,
ammonia or any other cleaning fluids. Remove dust by us-
ing a soft brush or gently vacuuming. Replace any sprin-
kler which has been painted (other than factory applied) or
damaged in any way. A stock of spare sprinklers should be
maintained to allow quick replacement of damaged or op-
erated 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-operation.
