Standard Coverage Sprinklers
A standard coverage sprinkler is the most common automatic sprinkler in light and ordinary hazard buildings, spaced to the basic coverage area of the design standard. When its glass bulb breaks with heat, the deflector spreads the water under the ceiling in an umbrella pattern.
The store range offers pendent, upright, sidewall and concealed types at 68 °C, 79 °C and 93 °C, with 5 mm standard or 3 mm quick response bulbs, in white painted, brass and chrome finishes. A ½” NPT connection is stated for sidewall types.
