"THE INCH" <br /> G �,.. QUICK RESPONSE <br /> AUTOMATIC SPRINKLERS <br /> FIRE SPRINKLER CORPORATION GL SERIES DRY TYPE <br /> ONE INCH ADJUSTABLE <br /> FLAT PLATE CONCEALED PENDENT <br /> DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION <br /> The Globe Quick Response GL Series Dry Type Adjustable Concealed Pendent Sprinkler is designed <br /> for use in special applications such as freezing environments and conditions where sediment or foreign <br /> materials might accumulate in ordinary drop nipples. All that is seen at the ceiling is a 3 5/16" diameter <br /> ceiling plate color finished to match the specifier's exact requirements. The Quick Response GL Series Dry <br /> Adjustable Concealed Sprinkler may be virtually invisible as it does not interrupt the "smooth flow" of the <br /> ceiling. The quick response sprinkler with operation approximately six times faster than ordinary sprinklers, <br /> should be used advisedly and under the direction of approving authorities having jurisdiction. Globe's Dry <br /> Adjustable Concealed Sprinkler utilizes its frangible 3mm glass bulb type sprinkler which is located above <br /> the ceiling and concealed from view by the ceiling plate. The plate is soldered to the sprinkler special upper <br /> support assembly in three places. Upon the application of sufficient heat,the plate falls to the floor exposing <br /> the pendent spray sprinkler. At the ampule's rated temperature, the sprinkler opens releasing the bulb seat, <br /> causing the inner tube assembly to move allowing the spring assembly to pivot alongside the inner tube. <br /> At this time, water flows through the sprinkler and is distributed by the deflector in an approved discharge <br /> pattern. <br /> The provided protective cap needs to be removed in order to install the sprinkler with the proper wrench. <br /> The protective cap must be replaced on the sprinkler until the time the cover plate is to be installed. The <br /> "push on-screw off'designed cover plate is easily installed and with a nominal 1"inch of adjustment makes <br /> it easier to get a proper fit at the ceiling. <br /> TECHNICAL DATA <br /> -See reverse side for Approvals and Specifications. <br /> ®Temperature Ratings - ' <br /> 135°F (57°C)Sprinkler, 1350F (57°C) Cover Plate <br /> 155°F (68°C) Sprinkler; 1350F (57°C) Cover Plate <br /> 1750F (79°C) Sprinkler; 1550F (68°C) Cover Plate <br /> 200OF (93°C) Sprinkler; 1550F (68°C) Cover Plate i <br /> -Water Working Pressure Rating - 175 psi (12 Bars) <br /> ®Factory tested hydrostatically to 500 psi (34 Bars) , <br /> -Maximum low temperature glass bulb rating is -670F (-55°C) =_ <br /> Frame- bronze o Deflector- brass- Screw- brass - Bulb Seat- brass <br /> -Spring - nickel alloy-Seal -teflon ° Retainer- brass° Pin -stainless steel <br /> Torsion Spring -stainless steel o Lodgement Wire -stainless steel <br /> -Bulb - glass with alcohol based solution, 3mm size• Orifice Insert- brass QUICK RESPONSE <br /> °1"NPT- Outer Tube - galvanized steel pipe • Inner Tube - stainless steel FLAT PLATE DRY <br /> -Cover Plate - brass •Upper Escutcheon Assembly- plated steel <br /> CONCEALED PENDENT <br /> NOTE: Globe's wrench P/N 337014 must be used to install this sprinkler. <br /> •SPRINKLER TEMPERATURE RATING/CLASSIFICATION and COLOR CODING <br /> CLASSIFICATION AVAILABLE SPRINKLER BULB COLOR N•F.P.A.MAXIMUM CEILING <br /> TEMPERATURES TEMPERATURE <br /> ORDINARY 135'F/155°F 57°C/68°C ORANGE/RED 100°F 36°C <br /> INTERMEDIATE 1751F/200°F 79°C/93°C YELLOW/GREEN 150°F 66°C <br /> JULY 2014 A-54 BULLETIN GL5634,REV.#1 <br />
