Operation
The glass bulb contains a fluid which
expands when exposed to heat. When
the rated temperature is reached, the
fluid expands sufficiently to shatter the
glass bulb, allowing the sprinkler to
activate and water to flow.

Criteria
The Model TY-FRFS, TY-FS Special,
and TY-FS Flat Spray Sprinklers are
only intended for installation per CEA
4001 “Sprinkler Systems Planning and
Installation” or EN12845 “Automatic
Sprinkler Systems - Design, Installa-
tion and Maintenance” where flat
spray sprinklers are permitted.
NOTE
In all cases, CEA 4001 “Sprinkler Sys-
tems Planning and Installation” or
EN12845 “Automatic Sprinkler Sys-
tems - Design, Installation and Mainte-
nance” must be referenced and fol-
lowed to ensure an effective
installation. The Flat Spay Sprinklers
have significantly different water distri-
bution characteristics from that of con-
ventional and spray pattern sprinklers
that has enabled the Flat Spray Sprin-
klers to be used in conformance with
CEA 4001 “Sprinkler Systems Plan-
ning and Installation” or EN12845
“Automatic Sprinkler Systems - De-
sign, Installation and Maintenance”.
