This provides sprinkler operation approxi- ;�' r�,s . /� <br /> mately six times faster than ordinary sprinklers. While the Quick �, �' ", �� <br /> Response Sprinkler provides an aesthetically pleasing appearance, it �. �? l i� ' <br /> can be installed wherever standard spray sprinklers are specified when �� `��_"�`� <br /> _ - � ��,., _ . <br /> allowed by the applicable standards. It offers the additional feature of - <br /> greatly increased safety to life and is available in various styles, _. � <br /> orifices, temperature ratings and finishes to meet many varying design ., � �; ,, ,, , , <br /> requirements. Quick Response Sprinklers should be used advisedly UPRIGHT CONVENTIONAL <br /> and under the direction of approving authorities having jurisdiction. <br /> The heart of Globe's GL Series sprinkler proven actuating ,. __ -� —_. <br /> assembly is a hermetically sealed frangible glass ampule that contains -�` �'� <br /> a precisely measured amount of fluid. When heat is absorbed, the ��"` �� ' <br /> , =# <br /> liquid within the bulb expands increasing the internal pressure. At the � F ,� <br /> prescribed temperature the internal pressure within the ampule ex- ��, �; ,'i� .� . <br /> ceeds the strength of the glass causing the glass to shatter. This results ;k �� � _ <br /> in water discharge which is distributed in an approved pattern depend- _.r-� <br /> ing upon the deflector style used. <br /> ,�: <br /> TECHNICAL DATA PENDENT VERTICAL <br /> See reverse side for Approvals and Specifications. sloEwA�� <br /> Temperature Ratings - 135°F (57°C), 155°F (68°C), <br /> 175°F (79°C), 200°F (93°C), 286°F (141 °C) <br /> ,��,w=:� „� �, <br /> Water Working Pressure Rating - 175 psi (12 Bars) ��,% ,: ,���� <br /> Factory tested hydrostatically to 500 psi (34 Bars) �,� " �; �. ; ���� y <br /> Maximum low temperature glass bulb rating is -67°F (-55°C) �``� ��=-�-s���� <br /> Frame - bronze Deflector - brass � Screw - brass <br /> Bulb seat - copper Spring - nickel alloy �- Seal - teflon �-''� �`;° ,- <br /> Bulb - glass with alcohol based solution, 3mm size HORIZONTAL SIDEWALL <br /> SPRINKLER TEMPERATURE RATING/CLASSIFICATION and COLOR CODING <br /> CLASSIFICATION AVAILABLE SPRINKLER gUL6 COLOR N.F.P.A.
