Series TY-B – 2.8, 5.6, and 8.0 K-factor
Upright, Pendent, and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
Standard Response, Standard Coverage
General
Description
The TYCO Series TY-B 2.8, 5.6,
and 8.0 K-factor, Upright, Pendent,
and Recessed Pendent Sprinklers
described in herein are standard
response, standard coverage, decorative 5 mm glass bulb-type spray sprinklers. They are designed for use in light,
ordinary, or extra-hazard commercial
occupancies such as banks, hotels,
shopping malls, factories, refineries,
and chemical plants.
The TY-B Recessed Pendent Sprinkler,
where applicable, is intended for use in
areas with a finished ceiling. It uses a
two-piece Style 10 (1/2 in. NPT) or Style
40 (3/4 in. NPT) Recessed Escutcheon.
The Recessed Escutcheon provides
1/2 in. (12,7 mm) of recessed adjustment or up to 3/4 in. (19,1 mm) of total
adjustment from the flush pendent
position. The adjustment provided by
the Recessed Escutcheon reduces the
accuracy to which the fixed pipe drops
to the sprinklers must be cut.
Corrosion-resistant coatings, where
applicable, are utilized to extend
the life of copper alloy sprinklers
beyond what would be obtained
when exposed to corrosive atmospheres. Although corrosion-resistant
coated sprinklers have passed the
standard corrosion tests of the applicable approval agencies, the testing
is not representative of all possible
corrosive atmospheres. Consequently,
IMPORTANT
Refer to Technical Data Sheet
TFP2300 for warnings pertaining to
regulatory and health information.
Always refer to Technical Data
Sheet TFP700 for the “INSTALLER
WARNING” that provides cautions
with respect to handling and installation of sprinkler systems and components. Improper handling and
installation can permanently damage
a sprinkler system or its components and cause the sprinkler to fail
to operate in a fire situation or cause
it to operate prematurely.
it is recommended that the end-user be
consulted about the suitability of these
coatings for any given corrosive environment. The effects of ambient temperature, concentration of chemicals,
and gas/chemical velocity, should be
considered as a minimum, along with
the corrosive nature of the chemical to
which the sprinklers will be exposed.
An intermediate level version of the
Series TY-B Pendent Sprinkler can be
obtained by utilizing the Series TY-B
Pendent Sprinkler in combination with
the Model S2 Shield.

distort the sprinkler inlet and cause
leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.
Do not attempt to compensate for
insufficient adjustment in the escutcheon plate by under- or over-tightening
the sprinkler. Re-adjust the position of
the sprinkler fitting to suit.
Series TY-B Upright and Pendent
Sprinklers Installation
The Series TY-B Upright and Pendent
Sprinklers must be installed in accordance with the following instructions:
Step 1. Install pendent sprinklers in the
pendent position. Install upright sprinklers in the upright position.
Step 2. With pipe thread sealant
applied to the pipe threads, handtighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler
fitting.
Step 3. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
6 Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 7).
For wax-coated sprinklers, use an
8 or 10 in. adjustable wrench. With
reference to Figure 1 to 4, apply the
W-Type 6 Recessed Sprinkler Wrench
or an adjustable wrench, as applicable,
to the sprinkler wrench flats.
Wax Coated Sprinklers
When installing wax-coated sprinklers
with an adjustable wrench, take care to
prevent damage to the wax coating on
the sprinkler wrench flats or frame arms
and, consequently, exposure of bare
metal to the corrosive environment:
• Open the jaws of the wrench sufficiently wide to pass over the wrench
flats without damaging the wax
coating.
• Before wrench tightening the sprinkler, adjust the jaws of the wrench
to contact only the sprinkler wrench
flats.
• After wrench tightening the sprinkler, loosen the wrench jaws before
removing the wrench.
After Installation
After installation, complete the
following:
• Inspect the sprinkler wrench flats
and frame arms and retouch (repair)
the wax coating whenever the coating has been damaged and bare
metal is exposed.
• Retouch the wax coating on the
wrench flats by gently applying a
heated 1/8 inch diameter steel rod
to the damaged areas of wax, to
smooth it back over areas where
bare metal is exposed.
NOTICE
Only retouching of the wax coating
applied to the wrench flats and frame
arms is permitted, and the retouching
is to be performed only at the time of
the initial sprinkler installation.
The steel rod should be heated only to
the point it can begin to melt the wax,
and appropriate precautions need to be
taken when handling the heated rod in
order to prevent the installer from being
burned.

Series TY-B Recessed Pendent
Sprinklers
The Series TY-B Recessed Pendent
Sprinklers must be installed in accordance with the following instructions:
Step 1. After installing the Style 10
or 40 Mounting Plate, as applicable,
over the sprinkler threads and with
pipe thread sealant applied to the pipe
threads, hand-tighten the sprinkler into
the sprinkler fitting.
Step 2. Tighten the sprinkler into the
sprinkler fitting using only the W-Type
7 Recessed Sprinkler Wrench (Ref.
Figure 8). With reference to Figure 3 or
4, apply the W-Type 7 Recessed Sprinkler wrench to the sprinkler wrench
flats.
Step 3. After the ceiling is installed or
the finish coat is applied, slide on the
Style 10 or 40 Closure over the Series
TY-B Recessed Pendent Sprinkler
and push the Closure over the Mounting Plate until its flange contacts the
ceiling.
Care and
Maintenance
The TYCO Series TY-B 2.8, 5.6, and
8.0 K-factor, Upright, Pendent, and
Recessed Pendent Sprinklers must be
maintained and serviced in accordance
with this section.
Before closing a fire protection system
main control valve for maintenance
work on the fire protection system
that it controls, obtain permission to
shut down the affected fire protection
system from the proper authorities
and notify all personnel who may be
affected by this action.
The owner must assure that the sprinklers are not used for hanging any
objects and that the sprinklers are only
cleaned by means of gently dusting
with a feather duster; otherwise, nonoperation in the event of a fire or inadvertent operation may result.
Absence of an escutcheon, which is
used to cover a clearance, may delay
the time to sprinkler operation in a fire
situation.
Sprinklers which are found to be
leaking or exhibiting visible signs of
corrosion must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
painted, plated, coated, or otherwise altered after leaving the factory.
Modified sprinklers must be replaced.
Sprinklers that have been exposed to
corrosive products of combustion, but
have not operated, should be replaced
if they cannot be completely cleaned
by wiping the sprinkler with a cloth or
by brushing it with a soft bristle brush.
Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the sprinklers before,
during, and after installation. Sprinklers damaged by dropping, striking,
wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must
be replaced. Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb. Refer to the Installation Section.
The owner is responsible for the
inspection, testing, and maintenance
of their fire protection system and
devices in compliance with this document, as well as with the applicable
standards of the National Fire Protection Association,(e.g., NFPA 25), in
addition to the standards of any other
authorities having jurisdiction. Contact
the installing contractor or product
manufacturer with any questions.
Automatic sprinkler are recommended
to be inspected, tested, and maintained
by a qualified Inspection Service in
accordance with local requirements
and/or national codes.
