Series TYFRB - 2.8.q 4.2 and 80 K-factor
Upright, Pendent, and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
Quick Response, Standard Coverage --
General
Description
The Series TY-FRB, 2.8, 4.2, 5.6, and
8.0 K-factor, Upright and Pendent
Sprinklers described in this data sheet
are quick response - standard cover-
age, decorative 3 mm glass bulb type
spray sprinklers designed for use in
light or ordinary hazard, commercial
occupancies such as banks, hotels,
shopping malls, etc.
The recessed version of the Series
TY-FRB Pendent Sprinkler, where ap-
plicable, is intended for use in areas
with a finished ceiling. It uses either a
two-piece Style 10 (1/2 inch NPT) or
Style 40 (3/4 inch NPT) Recessed Es-
cutcheon with 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) of
recessed adjustment or up to 3/4 inch
(19,1 mm) of total adjustment from the
flush pendent position, or a two-piece
Style 20(1/2 inch NPT) or Style 30(3/4
inch NPT) Recessed Escutcheon with
1/4 inch (6,4 mm) of recessed adjust-
ment or up to 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) of
total adjustment from the flush pen-
dent position. The adjustment provided
by the Recessed Escutcheon reduces
the accuracy to which the fixed pipe
drops to the sprinklers must be cut.
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 coatings for any given corro-
sive environment. The effects of ambi-
ent temperature, concentration of
chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity,
should be considered, as a minimum,
along with the corrosive nature of the
chemical to which the sprinklers will be
exposed.
An intermediate level versions of the
Series TY-FRB Pendent Sprinklers are
detailed in Technical Data Sheet
TFP356, and Sprinkler Guards are de-
tailed in Technical Data Sheet TFP780
WARNINGS
The Series TY-FRB Sprinklers de-
scribed herein must be installed and
maintained in compliance with this
document, as well as with the applica-
ble standards of the National Fire Pro-
tection 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, allowing the sprinkler to
activate and water to flow.

Care and
Maintenance
The Series TY-FRB 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.
Absence of an escutcheon, which is
used to cover a clearance hole, may
delay the time to sprinkler operation in
a fire situation.
Sprinklers that are found to be leaking
or exhibiting visible signs of corrosion
must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
painted, plated, coated or otherwise
altered after leaving the factory. Modi-
fied sprinklers must be replaced.
Sprinklers that have been exposed to
corrosive products of combustion, but
have not operated, should be replaced
if they cannot be completely 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-

Product Description
Model RFC43 Concealed Residential 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 RFC43 sprinklers discharge water in a
hemispherical pattern below the sprinkler deflector.
Residential distribution patterns are higher and generally
contain a finer droplet size than standard sprinkler patterns.
The combination of speed of operation and high discharge
pattern required for residential sprinklers has demonstrated,
in fire testing, an ability for controlling residential fires, and
thereby providing significant evacuation time for occupants.
The RFC43 Sprinkler provides the best form of fire
protection by combining an attractive appearance and 1/2"
(13rom) of cover adjustment for ease of installation. The
small diameter cover plate is easily and positively attached
and blends into the ceiling, concealing the most dependable
fire protection available, an automatic sprinkler system.
The RFC43 is a UL Listed Residential Sprinkler to be
installed in the residential portions of any occupancy in
accordance with NFPA 13,13R, & 13D.
The RFC43 can reduce the need for precise cutting of drop
nipples. The threaded cover plate assembly can be adjusted
without tools to fit accurately against the ceiling. The fire
protection system need not be shut down to adjust or remove
the cover plate assembly.
Application and Installation
The RFC43, for residential installations, uses a 165°F (74°C)
fusible solder link in a tuning 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
classification solder. When the ceiling temperature rises, the
solder helding the cover plate releases the cover allowing the
deflector to drop into position and exposing the sprinkler

Turn the cover clockwise until the flange is in contact with the
ceiling. The optional push-on cover plate may require a final
adjusting turn to contact the ceiling. Cover removal requires
turning in the counter-dockwise direction.
In ceilings that have a plenum space above the sprinkler,
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 impediment.
