3. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Viking Microfast® and MicrofastHP Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers are small thermosensitive glass bulb spray sprinklers
available in various finishes, temperature ratings, and orifice sizes to meet design requirements. The special Poly finishes
and Teflon coatings can be used in decorative applications where colors are desired. In addition, these finishes have been
investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and are cULus listed as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval
Chart. (Note: FM Global has no approval classification for Teflon and Poly finishes as corrosion resistant.)
The pip cap and sealing assembly of the sprinkler are held in place by the glass bulb operating element. During fire con-
ditions, the heat - sensitive liquid in the glass bulb expands, causing the bulb to shatter, releasing the pip cap and sealing
spring assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the sprinkler deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern
to extinguish or control the fire.

Jurisdiction. Refer to specific installation standards.
3 The corrosion - resistant coatings have passed the standard corrosion test required by the approving agencies indicated on page 41 c. These
tests cannot and do not represent all possible corrosive environments. Prior to installation, verify through the end -user that the coatings
are compatible with or suitable for the proposed environment. For automatic sprinklers, the coatings indicated are applied to the exposed
exterior surfaces only. Note that the spring is exposed on sprinklers with Poly finishes and Teflon coatings.

Pip Cap Attachment: Brass UNS- C36000
Ejector Spring (for Sprinkler 12104): Stainless Steel
For Teflon Coated Sprinklers: Belleville Spring- Exposed, Screw - Nickel Plated, Pip Cap - Teflon Coated
For Poly Coated Sprinklers: Belleville Spring- Exposed
AVAILABLE FINISHES AND TEMPERATURE RATINGS: Refer to Table 1 above.
5. ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS (Also refer to the current Viking price list.)
Order Microfast Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers by first adding the appropriate suffix for the sprinkler finish and then
the appropriate suffix for the temperature rating to sprinkler base part number.
Finish Suffix: Brass = A, Chrome - Enloy = F, White Poly Finish = M -/W, Black Poly Finish = M - /B, and Black Teflon = N
Temperature Suffix ( °F / °C): 135 0 /68 0 = A, 155 °168° = B, 175 0 /79 0 = D, 200 ° /93 = E, and 286°/141 = G
For example, Sprinkler VK302 with a 1/2" thread, Brass finish and a 155 0 F/68 0 0 temperature rating = Part No. 06662BAB.

2 Metric K- factor shown is for use when pressure is measured in bar. When pressure is measured in kPa, divide the metric K- factor shown by 10.0.
3 This table shows the listings and approvals available at the time of printing. Check with the manufacturer for any additional approvals.
4 Listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. for use in the U.S. and Canada.
5 FM Approved for use only in wet -pipe sprinkler systems (or preaction systems qualifying as wet systems) for protection of occupancies
described in the Factory Mutual Engineering and Research Loss Prevention Data Sheets and Technical Advisory Bulletins.
6 Accepted for use, City of New York Board of Standards and Appeals, Calendar Number 219- 76 -SA.
' cULus Listed as corrosion resistant.
6 Listings and Approvals limited to Light Hazard Occupancies where allowed by the installation standards being applied, with hydraulically

cULus Listing Requirements: Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers are cULus Listed as indicated in the Approval Chart for
installation in accordance with the latest edition of NFPA 13 for standard spray sprinklers.
• Designed for use in Light and Ordinary Hazard occupancies (exception: small orifice sprinklers are limited to Light
Hazard where allowed by the installation standards being applied, with hydraulically calculated wet systems only).
• The sprinkler installation rules contained in NFPA 13 for standard spray pendent sprinklers must be followed.
FM Approval Reauirements: Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers are FM Approved as indicated in the Approval Chart for
use only in wet -pipe sprinkler systems (or preaction systems qualifying as wet systems). For installation in accordance
with the latest applicable FM Loss Prevention Data Sheets and Technical Advisory Bulletins. FM Global Loss Prevention
Data Sheets and Technical Advisory Bulletins contain guidelines relating to, but not limited to: minimum water supply
requirements, hydraulic design, ceiling slope and obstructions, minimum and maximum allowable spacing, and deflector
distance below the ceiling.
NOTE: The FM installation guidelines may differ from cULus andlor NFPA criteria.
IMPORTANT: Always refer to Bulletin Form No. F_091699 - Care and Handling of Sprinklers. Also refer to page
QR1 -2 for general care, installation, and maintenance information. Viking sprinklers are to be installed in ac-
cordance with the latest edition of Viking technical data, the appropriate standards of NFPA, FM Global, LPCB,
