4. INSTALLATION
Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards.
5. OPERATION
During fire conditions, the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb expands,
causing the glass to shatter, releasing the pip cap and sealing spring
assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the sprinkler
deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern to extinguish or control the fire.
6. INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE
Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements.
