General

Description

The TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series

LFII Residential Pendent Sprinklers

(TY1234) are decorative, fast response,

frangible bulb sprinklers designed for

use in residential occupancies such as

homes, apartments, dormitories, and

hotels. When aesthetics and optimized

ﬂow characteristics are key consider-

ations, the Series LFII (TY1234) should

be the ﬁrst choice.

The 3.0 K-factor of the Series LFII Res-

idential Pendent Sprinkler has been

designed to optimize ﬂows (that is, to

avoid over discharging) specifically

for small coverage areas up to 14 ft x

14 ft (4,3 m x 4,3 m). The required resi-

dential ﬂow rates can then be delivered

with the use of smaller pipe sizes and

reduced water supply requirements.

The Series LFII Residential Sprinklers

are intended for use in the following

scenarios:

•

wet pipe residential sprinkler

systems for one-and two-family

dwellings and mobile homes per

NFPA 13D

•

wet pipe residential sprinkler

systems for residential occupan-

cies up to and including four stories

in height per NFPA 13R

•

wet pipe sprinkler systems for

the residential portions of any

occupancy per NFPA 13

The recessed version of the Series

LFII Residential Pendent Sprinkler is

intended for use in areas with ﬁnished

ceilings. It employs a two-piece Style

20 Recessed Escutcheon.

The Recessed Escutcheon provides

1/4 in. (6,4 mm) of recessed adjust-

ment or up to 1/2 in. (12,7 mm) of total

adjustment from the ﬂush ceiling posi-

tion. The adjustment provided by the

Recessed Escutcheon reduces the

accuracy to which the pipe drops to

the sprinklers must be cut.

The Series LFII Residential Pendent

Sprinkler has been designed with heat

sensitivity and water distribution char-

acteristics proven to help in the control

of residential ﬁres and to improve the

chance for occupants to escape or be

evacuated.

Corrosion-resistant coatings, where

applicable, are utilized to extend the life

of copper alloy sprinklers beyond that

which would otherwise be obtained

when exposed to corrosive atmo-

spheres. Although corrosion-resistant

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 suit-

ability of these coatings for any given

corrosive environment. The effects of

ambient 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.

NOTICE

The Series LFII Residential Pendent

Sprinklers (TY1234) described herein

must be installed and maintained in

compliance with this document and

with the applicable standards of the

NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSO-

CIATION (NFPA), in addition to the

standards of any authorities having

jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair

the performance of these devices.

The glass bulb contains a ﬂuid that

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 ﬂow water.

Installation

The TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series

LFII Residential Pendent Sprinklers

(TY1234) must be installed in accor-

dance with this section:

General Instructions

Do not install any bulb-type sprinkler

if the bulb is cracked or there is a loss

of liquid from the bulb. With the sprin-

kler held horizontally, a small air bubble

should be present. The diameter of the

air bubble is approximately 1/16 in.

(1,6 mm).

A leak-tight 1/2 in. NPT sprinkler joint

should be obtained by applying a min-

imum-to-maximum torque of 7 to 14

lb-ft (9,5 to 19,0 N∙m). Higher levels

of torque can distort the sprinkler inlet

with consequent leakage or impairment

of the sprinkler.

Do not attempt to compensate for

insufﬁcient adjustment in an Escutch-

eon Plate by under-or over-tightening

the Sprinkler. Re-adjust the position of

the sprinkler ﬁtting to suit.

Residential Sprinkler Design Guide

When conditions exist that are outside

the scope of the provided criteria, refer

to the Residential Pendent Sprinkler

Design Guide TFP490 for the manufac-

turer’s recommendations that may be

acceptable to the local authority having

jurisdiction.

System Type

Only wet pipe systems may be utilized.

Ceiling Types

Smooth ﬂat horizontal, or beamed, or

sloped, in accordance with the 2013

Edition of NFPA 13D, 13R, or 13 as

applicable.

Hydraulic Design

(NFPA 13D and 13R)

The minimum required sprinkler

flow rate for systems designed to

NFPA 13D or NFPA 13R are given in

Table A as a function of temperature

rating and the maximum allowable cov-

erage areas. The sprinkler ﬂow rate is

the minimum required discharge from

each of the total number of design

sprinklers as speciﬁed in NFPA 13D or

NFPA 13R.

Hydraulic Design

(NFPA 13)

For systems designed to NFPA 13, the

number of design sprinklers is to be

the four most hydraulically demanding

sprinklers. The minimum required dis-

charge from each of the four sprinklers

is to be the greater of the following:

•

The ow rates given in Table A for

NFPA 13D and 13R as a function of

TFP402 temperature rating and the

maximum allowable coverage area.

•

A minimum discharge of 0.1

gpm/ft2over the “design area”

comprised of the four most hydrau-

lically demanding sprinklers for

actual coverage areas protected by

the four sprinklers.

Obstruction to Water Distribution

Sprinklers are to be located in accor-

dance with the obstruction rules of

NFPA 13D, 13R, and 13 as applica-

ble for residential sprinklers as well as

with the obstruction criteria described

within the TYCO technical data sheet

TFP490.

Operational Sensitivity

Sprinklers are to be installed with

a deflector-to-ceiling distance of

1-1/4 in. to 4 in.

Sprinkler Spacing

The minimum spacing between sprin-

klers is 8 ft (2,4 m). The maximum

spacing between sprinklers cannot

exceed the length of the coverage

area being hydraulically calculated

(for example a maximum of 12 ft for a

12 ft x 12 ft coverage area, or 16 ft for a

16 ft x 16 ft coverage area.) See Table

Max.

Care and

Maintenance

The TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series

LFII Residential Pendent Sprinklers

(TY1234) must be maintained and ser-

viced in accordance with this section:

Before closing a ﬁre protection system

main control valve for maintenance

work on the ﬁre protection system

that it controls, obtain permission to

shut down the affected ﬁre protection

system from the proper authorities

and notify all personnel who may be

affected by this decision.

Absence of the outer piece of an

escutcheon,which is used to cover

a clearance hole, can delay sprinkler

operation in a ﬁre situation.

The owner must assure that the sprin-

klers are not used for hanging any

objects and that the sprinklers are only

cleaned by means of gently dusting

with a feather-duster. Otherwise, non-

operation in the event of a ﬁre or inad-

vertent operation may result.

Sprinklers which are found to be

leaking or exhibiting visible signs of

corrosion must be replaced.

Automatic sprinklers must never be

painted, plated, coated, or other-

wise altered after leaving the factory.

Modiﬁed 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

damage to the sprinklers - before,

during, and after installation. Sprin-

klers damaged by dropping, striking,

wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must

be replaced. Also, replace any sprinkler

that has a cracked bulb or that has lost

liquid from its bulb. See the Installation

section for additional information.

The owner is responsible for the

inspection, testing, and maintenance of

their ﬁre protection system and devices

in compliance with this document, as

well as with the applicable standards

of the NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION

ASSOCIATION, for example, NFPA 25,

in addition to the standards of any other

authorities having jurisdiction. Contact

the installing contractor or sprinkler

manufacturer regarding any questions.

Automatic sprinkler systems are rec-

ommended to be inspected, tested,

and maintained by a qualiﬁed Inspec-

tion Service in accordance with local

requirements and/or national codes.
