212 °F (100 °C) temperature rated fusible-link operating ele-
ment. Sprinklers with a 165 °F (74 °C) temperature rating are
ordinary temperature classication and should be used with a
135 °F (57 °C) temperature rated cover plate. Sprinklers with a
212 °F (100 °C) temperature rating are intermediate tempera-
ture classication and should be used with a 165 °F (74 °C)
temperature rated cover plate.
Model RFC Series sprinklers are installed with a Model RFC
