GL1123
The Globe Quick Response GL1114 Pendent and
GL1123 Upright Sprinklers are intended for use in NFPA 13
Systems when installed in accordance with Control Mode Density
Area protection criteria as specifi ed in the NFPA 13 standard.
The GL1114 and GL1123 sprinklers have a low profi le yet
durable design which utilizes a 3mm frangible glass ampule as
the thermosensitive element. While the sprinklers provide an
aesthetically pleasing appearance, they serve to protect various
area coverages. This sprinkler series is available in pendent, and
upright styles, and several temperature ratings and fi nishes to
meet varying design requirements.
The heart of Globe's GL1114 and GL1123 sprinklers prov-
en actuating assembly is a hermetically sealed frangible
glass ampule that contains a precisely measured amount of
fl uid. When heat is absorbed, the liquid within the bulb expands
increasing the internal pressure. At the prescribed temperature
the internal pressure within the ampule exceeds the strength
of the glass causing the glass to shatter. This results in water
discharge which is distributed in an approved pattern.
