1. DESCRIPTION
Viking Freedom® Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK494 is a small
thermosensitive, glass-bulb residential sprinkler designed for installation on
concealed pipe systems where the appearance of a smooth ceiling is desired. The
orifice design, with a K-factor of 4.9 (70.6 metric*), allows the sprinkler’s efficient
use of available water supplies for the hydraulically designed fire-protection
system. The fast response glass bulb operating element and special deflector
characteristics meet the challenges of residential sprinkler standards.
The sprinkler is pre-assembled with a threaded adapter for installation with a
low-profile small-diameter cover assembly installed flush to the ceiling. The two-
piece design allows installation and testing of the sprinkler prior to installation of
the cover plate. The “push-on” and “thread-on” designs of the concealed cover
plate assemblies allow easy installation of the cover plate after the system has
been tested and the ceiling finish has been applied, while also providing up to
1/2” (13 mm) of vertical adjustment. The cover assembly can be removed and
reinstalled, allowing temporary removal of ceiling panels without taking the sprinkler
system out of service or removing the sprinkler. The Electroless Nickel PTFE
(ENT) coating has been investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and
is C-UL-US-EU Listed as indicated in the Approval Charts. The ENT finish is only
available for the sprinkler assembly, the cover plate is not plated.
2. LISTINGS AND APPROVALS

Ordering Information: The sprinkler and cover plate must be ordered separately. Refer to Tables 1 and 2.
4. INSTALLATION
Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards.
5. OPERATION
During fire conditions, when the temperature around the sprinkler approaches the cover plate’s nominal temperature rating, the
cover plate detaches and releases the deflector. Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the heat-sensitive liquid in the
glass bulb to expand. When the temperature reaches the sprinkler’s nominal temperature rating, the glass bulb shatters releasing
the yoke, pip cap assembly and sealing spring. Water begins flowing through the sprinkler orifice and strikes the deflector form-
ing a uniform spray pattern over a specific area of coverage, which is determined by the water supply pressure at the sprinkler, in
order to extinguish or control the fire.

DESIGN CRITERIA
(Also refer to the Approval Chart.)
UL Listing Requirements (C-UL-US-EU):
When using Viking Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK494 for systems designed to NFPA 13D or NFPA 13R, apply the listed areas of cover-
age and minimum water supply requirements shown in the Approval Chart.
For systems designed to NFPA 13: The number of design sprinklers is to be the four contiguous most hydraulically demanding sprinklers. 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 Chart for NFPA 13D and NFPA 13R applications for each listed area of coverage, or
• Calculated based on a minimum discharge of 0.1 gpm/sq. ft. over the “design area” in accordance with sections 9.5.2.1 or 10.2.4.1.2 of the current
edition of NFPA 13.
• Minimum distance between residential sprinklers: 8 ft. (2.4 m).
NOTE: Concealed sprinklers must be installed in neutral or negative pressure plenums only.
IMPORTANT: Always refer to Bulletin Form No. F_080415 - Best Practices for Residential Sprinkler Handling and Installation. Also refer to Form No. F_080614 for general care, installation, and maintenance information. Viking sprinklers are to be in-stalled in accordance 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.

1. DESCRIPTION
Viking Freedom® Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK496 is a small
thermosensitive, glass-bulb residential sprinkler designed for installation on concealed
pipe systems where the appearance of a smooth ceiling is desired. The orifice design,
with a K-Factor of 3.0 (43.2 metric*), allows the sprinkler’s efficient use of available
water supplies for the hydraulically designed fire-protection system. The fast
response glass bulb operating element and special deflector characteristics meet
the challenges of residential sprinkler standards.
The sprinkler is pre-assembled with a threaded adapter for installation with a low-
profile small-diameter cover assembly installed flush to the ceiling. The two-piece
design allows installation and testing of the sprinkler prior to installation of the
cover plate. The “The “push-on” and “thread-on” designs of the concealed cover
plate assemblies allow easy installation of the cover plate after the system has
been tested and the ceiling finish has been applied, while also providing up to
1/2” (13 mm) of vertical adjustment. The cover assembly can be removed and
reinstalled, allowing temporary removal of ceiling panels without taking the sprinkler
system out of service or removing the sprinkler. The Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT)
coating has been investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and is C-UL-
US-EU Listed as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval Charts. The ENT
finish is only available for the sprinkler assembly, the cover plate is not plated.
2. LISTINGS AND APPROVALS
UL Listed (C-UL-US-EU): Category VKKW
Refer to the Approval Charts and Design Criteria on for C-UL-US-EU

UL Listing Requirements (C-UL-US-EU):
When using Viking Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK496 for systems designed to NFPA 13D or NFPA 13R, apply the listed areas of cover-
age and minimum water supply requirements shown in the Approval Chart.
For systems designed to NFPA 13: The number of design sprinklers is to be the four contiguous most hydraulically demanding sprinklers. 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 Chart for NFPA 13D and NFPA 13R applications for each listed area of coverage, or
• 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).
NOTE: Concealed sprinklers must be installed in neutral or negative pressure plenums only.
IMPORTANT: Always refer to Bulletin Form No. F_080415 - Best Practices for Residential Sprinkler Handling and Installation. Also refer to Form No. F_080614 for general care, installation, and maintenance information. Viking sprinklers are to be in-stalled in accordance 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.

1. DESCRIPTION
Viking Freedom® Residential Pendent Sprinkler VK470 is a thermosensitive, glass-bulb
residential sprinkler available in several different finishes and temperature ratings to meet
varying design requirements. The Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coating has been inves-
tigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and is C-UL-US-EU Listed as corrosion
resistant as indicated in the Approval Chart. The sprinkler orifice design, with a K-Factor
of 3.0 (43.2 metric*), allows efficient use of available water supplies for the hydraulically
designed fire-protection system. The glass bulb operating element and special deflector
characteristics meet the challenges of residential sprinkler standards.
2. LISTINGS AND APPROVALS
UL Listed (C-UL-US-EU): Category VKKW
Refer to the Approval Chart and Design Criteria for C-UL-US-EU Listing require-
ments that must be followed.
3. TECHNICAL DATA

Ordering Information: (Refer to Table 1 and the current Viking price list.)
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.
