Product Description
tt-
The Reliable Model G Automatic Sprinkler utilizes the
center strut solder in compression principle of construcif'''''*-
tion. The fusible alloy is captured in the cylinder of the ' m
solder capsule by a stainless steel ball. When the fusible • 19
alloy melts, the ball moves into the cylinder allowing the
cylinder to fall away from the sprinkler.When this happens, `
the lever is released to spring free from the sprinkler so -
Ai that all of the operating parts clear from the waterway al-
lowing the deflector to distribute the discharging water. T E
Except for the parts in the cylinder as mentioned above,
the sprinkler components are made from copper based Upright Pendent
alloys for maximum corrosion protection. Lead plated,wax ,1„..„,,,i,,„m,„,,,,,,,,e,
coated or wax over lead plated sprinklers are available for
specially severe environments. Chrome plated sprinklers ..,v ��
are available for decorative purposes.
All sprinklers are individually hydrostatically tested. All
sprinklers are identified as to their fusing point by mark- ; t
ings that appear on several of the operating parts and by
an identifying color that appears on the frame.
