Product Description
Model RFC56 Concealed Residential Sprinklers are fast
response residential fusible solder link automatic sprinklers.
Residential sprinklers differ from standard sprinklers primarily
in their response time and water distribution patterns.
Model RFC56 sprinklers discharge water in a
hemispherical pattern below the sprinkler deflector.
Residential distribution patterns are higher and generally
contain a finer droplet size than standard sprinkler patterns.
The combination of speed of operation and high discharge
pattern required for residential sprinklers has demonstrated,
in fire testing, an ability for controlling residential fires, and
thereby providing significant evacuation time for occupants.
The RFC56 Sprinkler provides the best form of fire
protection by combining an attractive appearance and
(13mm) of cover adjustment for ease of installation. The
small diameter cover plate is easily and positively attached
and blends into the ceiling, concealing the most dependable
fire protection available, an automatic sprinkler system.
