The minimum required discharge from each of the four sprinklers is to be the greater of the following: • The flow rates given in the Approval Charfon data page 145j for NFPA 13D and NFPA 13R applications for each listed area of coverage, o • Calculated based on a'minimum discharge of 0.1 gpm/sq. ft. over the "design area" in accordance with sections 8.5.2.1 or 8.6.2.1.2 of NFPA 13. •. Minimum distance between residential sprinklers: 8 ft. (2.4 m). BEAM CEILING,GUIDELINES cULas Llsted for Installation In residential occdpancfes-with beam ceilings (W#h horizc rital ceilings only), Refer to,the rovat Chart for rtinkler' areas of coven and li` drau c design. Sprinkler Locatlon: Locate sprinklers on the underside of the beams (not in the bays or pockets formed by the beams). Refer to Figure 3. The vertical distance from the sprinkler deflector to the bottom of the primary beam must be between 1/2 and 1-1/8" (12.7 to 28.5 mm). The horizontal distance from the centerline of the sprinkler to the primary beam cannot be more than 2" (51 mm) (Figure•3). NOTE: Consult with a structural engineer before drilling beams to allow the installation of sprinkler drops. Where drilling is not permitted, sprinkler posi- tion requirements allow for the sprinkler drop to be placed adjacent to the primary beam. Beam Position: Directly attached to the underside of a combustible or non-combustible smooth ceiling of any height. Beam Size and Shape (Cross section): . • Depth: Maximum 14" (355 mm) for primary beams. Secondary beam depth cannot be greater than the primary beam. Width: Unlimited. - Beam Shape: Rectangular to circular. - Beam Types: Combustible or non-combustible; solid surface, solid or hollow core. Beam Spacing: t A. For primary beams, the distance from the wall to the center of the nearest primary beam must be at least 3'-4" (1.0 m), and not more than one-half the listed sprinkler spacing. Note: Sprinklers may not be required to be located in the first beam nearest_ the wall. Center -to -center distance between primary beams is to be a maximum of 20'-0" (6.1 m). Refer to Figure 4A. B. When beam pockets created by the primary beams exceed 20'-0" (6.1 m) in length, secondary beams are required as follows (also refer to Figure 4B): 1. Secondary beam depth must be equal to primary beam depth. 2. Secondary beams must be placed so that the bays formed by the primary beams do not exceed 20'-0" (6,1 m) in length. C. When primary beam spans do not exceed 20'-0" (6.1 m), secondary beams (not required) may have any distance from wall to nearest secondary '- beam and any distance center to center between secondary beams. Refer to Figure 4C. Lintels: Must be present over doorways exiting the compartment. Lintel height must be at least 8" (203 mm), or at least the depth of the primary beams, whichever is greater. Beam and Soffit Arrangements: If a soffit is installed, beams may be arranged within the soffit. The cross section of the soffit may be any size, pro- vided it does not create an obstruction to water distribution per the obstruction rules of NFPA 13 for residential sprinklers. Where there is a soffit, beam spacing from the wall is to be measured from the face of the soffit rather than the wall. Refer to Figure 4D. NOTE: The sprinkler area of coverage is to be measured from the wall. Definitions: r ' • • Primary beams: The main beams that run primarily in one direction. • Secondary beams: The beams that run perpendicular to the main beams. IMPORTANT: Always refer toIBulletin Form No. F 091699 - Care and Handling of Sprinklers. Also refer to pages RES1-17 for general care, installation, and maintenance information. Viking sprinklers are to be installed in ac- cordance with the latest edition•of Viking technical data, the appropriate standards of NFPA and any other similar Authorities Having Jurisdiction, and also with the provisions of governmental codes, ordinances, and standards, whenever applicable. Final approval and acceptance of all residential sprinkler installations must be obtained from the Authorities Having Jurisdiction.

OPERATION During fire conditions, when the temperature around the sprinkler approaches its operating temperature, the cover plate detaches, releasing the deflector. Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the fusible element to disengage releasing the sealing assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern over a specific area of coverage determined by the water supply pressure at the sprinkler to extinguish or control the fire. 6. INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements. 7.

The F1 Res Horizontal Sidewall sprinklers are equally attractive when above ceiling piping cannot be used. The 3mm glass -bulb pendent sprinklers, with a K Factor of 4.9 & 5.8 for pendent and 4.4 for horizontal sidewall, permit the efficient use of residential water supplies for sprinkler coverage in residential fire protection design. The low flow F1 Res sprinklers are specially engineered for fast thermal response to meet the sensitive fire protec- tion application needs of the latest residential market stan- dards (UL 1626 Standard *). Upon fire conditions, rising heat causes a sprinkler's heat -sensitive glass -bulb to shat- ter, releasing the waterway for water flow onto the deflec- tor, evenly distributing the discharged water to control a fire.

Residential sprinklers differ from stan- dard'sprinklers primarily in their response time and water distribution patterns. Model RFC43 & RFC49 sprinklers discharge water in a hemispherical pattern below the sprinkler deflector. Resi- dential distribution patterns are higher and generally con- tain a finer droplet size than standard sprinkler patterns. The combination of speed of operation and high dis- charge pattern required for residential sprinklers has dem- onstrated, in fire testing, an ability for controlling residen- tial fires, and thereby providing significant evacuation time for occupants. The RFC43 & RFC49 Sprinkler provides the best form of fire protection by combining an attractive appearance and 1/2" (13mm) of cover adjustment for ease of installa- tion. The small diameter cover plate is easily and posi- tively attached and blends into the ceiling, concealing the most dependable fire protection available, an automatic sprinkler system. The RFC43 & RFC49 are UL Listed Residential Sprinkler to be installed in the residential portions of any occupancy in accordance with NFPA 13,13R, & 13D. The RFC43 & RFC49 can reduce the need for precise cutting of drop nipples. The threaded cover plate assem- bly 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. 2.

For systems designed in accordance with NFPA 13, 13D and 13R, where specific UL Listed flows are not required, consult with the local Authority Having Juris- diction regarding the number of design sprinklers for sloped ceilings having a pitch greater than (9.40). 2. Installation of UL Listed residential sprinklers under sloped ceilings shall be limited to a type of unob- structed construction consisting of smooth ceilings, as defined by NFPA 13, having a maximum pitch of 4/12 (18.41) or 8/12 (33.7°). 3. Spacing of residential sprinklers under sloped ceil- ings is measured along the slope when determining the distance off of walls and between sprinklers. 4. Measure listed areas of coverage along the sloped ceiling. The actual floor coverage area will be less than the listed area. 5. For coverage areas less than the listed coverage area shown in Tables 1 through 5, use the minimum flow requirement for the next largest listed coverage area. .:* 6. Minimum spacing between pendent type sprinklers is 8 ft. (2.4 m). Minimum distance from a pendent type sprinkler and an adjacent wall is 4" (102 mm). 7. Residential sprinklers located closest to the peak of the ceiling shall have the deflectors located not more than 3 ft (1m) vertically down from the peak. Align de- flectors parallel with the ceiling slope 1" to 4" (25mm to 102mm) below the sloped ceiling. 8. Hydraulic Requirements: a. For NFPA 13D Systems, the number of design sprinklers shall include all sprinklers within a compartment, up to a maximum of two sprinklers (where specific UL Listed flows are required) that requires the greatest hydraulic demand. b. For NFPA 13R Systems, the number of design sprinklers shall include all sprinklers within a com- partment, up to a maximum of four (4) sprinklers (where specific UL Listed flows are required), that requires the greatest hydraulic demand. c. For NFPA 13 systems, the design area shall be the area that includes the four (4) hydraulically most demanding sprinklers. The minimum re- quired discharge from each of the four hydrauli- cally demanding sprinklers shall be the greater of the following: (1) In accordance with the minimum flow rates in- dicated by the individual listings (that already will provide a minimum density of 0.1 gpm/ft2); or (2) A calculated value based on delivering a mini- mum of 0.1 gpm/ft2 over the design area. 9. Because of the varied nature of residential construc- tion features, there will be some compartment designs which cannot be fully sprinklered in accordance with NFPA 13, 13D, or 13R. In these instances, consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for guidance and approval. This includes sloped ceilings having a pitch greater than 8/12 (33.7). 10. Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors to minimize bulb damage during shipping, handling and installation. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION AT THE TIME THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS PLACE IN SER- VICE FOR FIRE PROTECTION. Removal of the pro- tectors before this time may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. RASCO wrenches are designed to install sprinklers when covers are in place. REMOVE PRO- TECTORS BY UNDOING THE CLASP BY HAND. DO NOT USE TOOLS TO REMOVE THE PROTECTORS.

For systems designed in accordance with NFPA 13, 13D and 13R, where specific UL Listed flows are not required, consult with the local Authority Having Juris- diction regarding the number of design sprinklers for sloped ceilings having pitch greater than (9.40). 2. Installation of UL Listed residential sprinklers under sloped ceilings shall be limited to a type of unobstruct- ed construction consisting of flat, smooth ceilings, as defined by NFPA 13, having a maximum pitch of 4/12 (18.40) or 8/12 (33.70). 3. Where listed, install horizontal sidewall sprinklers along the wall below the sloped ceiling when dis- charge is directed across the slope, and install at the peak below the sloped ceiling when discharge is directed down the slope. Always align the sprinkler deflector parallel with the direction of the sloped ceil- ing. 4. Residential HSW sprinklers located closed to the peak of the ceiling shall have the deflectors located not more than 3 ft. (1m) vertically down from the peak. 5. Spacing of residential HSW sprinklers under sloped ceilings is measured along the slope when determin- ing the distance off of walls and between sprinklers. 11. 6. Measure listed areas of coverage along the sloped ceiling. The actual floor coverage area will be less than the listed area. 7. For coverage areas less than the listed coverage area shown in Tables 1 through 6, use the minimum flow requirement for next largest listed coverage area. 8. Minimum spacing between horizontal sidewall sprin- klers is 8 ft. (2.4 m). Minimum distance from a hori- zontal sidewall sprinkler and an adjacent wall is 4" (102 mm). 9. Hydraulic Requirements: a. For NFPA 13D Systems, the number of design sprinklers shall include all sprinklers within a compartment, up to a maximum of two sprinklers (where specific UL Listed flows are required) that requires the greatest hydraulic demand. b. For NFPA 13R Systems, the number of design sprinklers shall include all sprinklers within a com- partment, up to a maximum of four (4) sprinklers (where specific UL Listed flows are required), that requires the greatest hydraulic demand.

For NFPA 13R Systems, the number of design sprinklers shall include all sprinklers within a com- partment, up to a maximum of four (4) sprinklers (where specific UL Listed flows are required), that requires the greatest hydraulic demand. For NFPA 13 systems, the design area shall be the area that includes the four (4) hydraulically most demanding sprinklers. The minimum re- quired discharge from each of the four hydrauli- cally demanding sprinklers shall be the greater of the following: (1) In accordance with the minimum flow rates in- dicated by the individual listings (that already will provide a minimum density of 0.1 gpm/ft2); or (2) A calculated value based on delivering a mini- mum of 0.1 gpm/ft2 over the design area. 10. Because of the varied nature of residential construc- tion features, there will be some compartment designs which cannot be fully sprinklered in accordance with NFPA 13, 13D, or 13R. In these instances, consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for guidance and approval. This includes sloped ceilings having a pitch greater than 8/12 (33.70). 11. Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors to minimize bulb damage during shipping, handling and installation. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION AT THE TIME THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS PLACE IN SER- VICE FOR FIRE PROTECTION. Removal of the pro- tectors before this time may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. RASCO wrenches are designed to install sprinklers when covers are in place. REMOVE PRO- TECTORS BY UNDOING THE CLASP BY HAND. DO NOT USE TOOLS TO REMOVE THE PROTECTORS.
