Product Description

The Reliable Models F156 and F1FR56 Intermediate Level

Sprinklers include shields which protect the glass bulb from

water spray impingement caused by sprinklers located at a

higher elevation.

Typical applications are for storage racks which require

multi–level sprinklers and beneath open grid catwalks.

Application

Model F156 and F1FR56 Intermediate Level sprinklers are

used in fixed fire protection systems: Wet, Dry, Deluge or Pre-

action. Care must be exercised that the orifice size, tempera-

ture rating, deflector style and sprinkler type are in accordance

with the latest published standards of the National Fire Protec-

tion Association or the Authority Having Jurisdiction.

Installation

Model F156 sprinklers are standard response sprinklers

and Model F1FR56 are quick response sprinklers. Both types

are intended for installation as specified in NFPA 13. Upright

sprinklers must be installed with the Model D Sprinkler Wrench

specifically designed by Reliable for use with these sprinklers,

and pendent sprinklers must be installed with the Model GFR2

Sprinkler Wrench specifically designed by Reliable for use

with these sprinklers.

Glass bulb sprinklers have orange covers to protect the bulb

during the installation process. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION

ONLY AFTER THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN HYDROSTATICALLY

TESTED. Model D and GFR2 wrenches are designed to install

sprinklers when covers are in place.

Maintenance

The Models F156 and F1FR56 Sprinklers should be inspect-

ed and the sprinkler system maintained in accordance with

NFPA 25. Do not clean sprinklers with soap and water, am-

monia or any other cleaning fluid. Remove dust by using a soft

brush or gentle vacuuming. Remove any sprinkler which has

been painted (other than factory applied) or damaged in any

way. A stock of spare sprinklers should be maintained to allow

quick replacement of damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior

to installation, sprinklers should be maintained in the original

cartons and packaging until used to minimize the potential

for damage to sprinklers that would cause improper or non-

operation.
