Improper handling and installation can permanently damage a sprinkler system or its compo-nents and cause the sprinkler to fail to operate in a fire situation or cause it to operate prematurely. Worldwide Contacts www.tyco-fire.com General Description TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series LFII Residential 4.9K Concealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) are decorative, fast response, fusible solder sprinklers designed for use in residential occu-pancies such as homes, apartments, dormitories, and hotels. The cover plate assembly conceals the sprinkler operating components above the ceiling. The flat profile of the cover plate provides the optimum aes-thetically appealing sprinkler design. In addition, the concealed design of the Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) provides 1/2 inch (12,7 mm) vertical adjustment. This adjustment provides a measure of flexibility when cutting fixed sprinkler drops. The Series LFII Residential Concealed Sprinklers are intended for use in the following scenarios: • wet and dry pipe residential sprin-kler systems for one- and two-fam-ily dwellings and mobile homes per NFPA 13D • wet and dry pipe residential sprinkler systems for residential occupancies up to and including four stories in height per NFPA 13R • wet and dry pipe sprinkler systems for the residential portions of any occupancy per NFPA 13 The Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) has been designed with heat sensitivity and water distribution characteristics proven to help in the control of residen-tial fires and to improve the chance for occupants to escape or be evacuated. The Series LFII Residential Con-cealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) are shipped with a Disposable Pro-tective Cap. The Protective Cap is temporarily removed for installation, and then it can be replaced to help protect the sprinkler while the ceiling is being installed or finished. The tip of the Protective Cap can also be used to mark the center of the ceiling hole into plaster board, ceiling tiles, etc. by gently pushing the ceiling product against the Protective Cap. When the ceiling installation is complete the Pro-tective Cap is removed and the Cover Plate Assembly installed. Dry Pipe System ApplicationThe Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinklers offers a laboratory approved option for designing dry pipe residential sprinkler systems, whereas, most residential sprinklers are labora-tory approved for wet systems only. Through extensive testing, it has been determined that the number of design sprinklers (hydraulic design area) for the Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) need not be increased over the number of design sprinklers (hydraulic design area) as specified for wet pipe sprinkler systems, as is accustomed for density/area sprinkler systems designed per NFPA 13. Consequently, the Series LFII Residen-tial Concealed Pendent Sprinklers offer the features of non-water filled pipe in addition to not having to increase the number of design sprinklers (hydraulic design area) for systems designed to NFPA 13, 13D, or 13R. NOTICE The Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinklers (TY3596) described herein must be installed and main-tained in compliance with this docu-ment and with the applicable standards of the National Fire Protection Associa-tion (NFPA), in addition to the standards of any authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair the perfor-mance of these devices. The owner is responsible for main-taining their fire protection system and devices in proper operating con-dition. Contact the installing contrac-tor or product manufacturer with any questions. Sprinkler Identification Number (SIN) TY3596 TFP442 Page 2 of 6 3-3/16" DIA.

Obstruction to Water DistributionSprinklers are to be located in accor-dance with the obstruction rules of NFPA 13D, 13R, and 13 as applicable for residential sprinklers as well as with the obstruction criteria described within the Technical Data Sheet TFP490. Operational SensitivityThe sprinklers are to be installed rela-tive to the ceiling mounting surface as shown in Figure 3. Sprinkler SpacingThe minimum spacing between sprin-klers is 8 feet (2,4 m). The maximum spacing between sprinklers cannot exceed the length of the coverage area (Ref. Table A or B) being hydraulically calculated (e.g., maximum 12 feet for a 12 ft. x 12 ft. coverage area, or 20 feet for a 20 ft. x 20 ft. coverage area). The Series LFII must not be used in applications where the air pres-sure above the ceiling is greater than that below. Down drafts through the Support Cup could delay sprinkler operation in a fire situation.

Screw on the Cover Plate Assembly until its flange comes in contact with the ceiling. Do not continue to screw on the Cover Plate Assembly such that it lifts a ceiling panel out of its normal position. If the Cover Plate Assembly cannot be engaged with the Mounting Cup or the Cover Plate Assembly cannot be engaged sufficiently to contact the ceiling, the Sprinkler Fitting must be repositioned. Care and Maintenance TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprin-klers (TY3596) 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 which it controls, permission to shut down the affected fire protection system must be obtained from the proper authorities and all personnel who may be affected by this action must be notified. Absence of a Cover Plate may delay the sprinkler operation in a fire situation. When properly installed, there is a nominal 1/8 inch (3,2 mm) air gap between the lip of the Cover Plate and the ceiling, as shown in Figure 3. This air gap is necessary for proper opera-tion of the sprinkler by allowing heat flow from a fire to pass below and above the Cover Plate to help assure appropriate release of the Cover Plate in a fire situation. If the ceiling is to be repainted after the installation of the Sprinkler, care must be exercised to ensure that the new paint does not seal off any of the air gap. Factory painted Cover Plates must not be repainted. They should be re placed, if necessary, by factory painted units. Non-factory applied paint may adversely delay or prevent sprinkler operation in the event of a fire. Do not pull the Cover Plate relative to the Enclosure. Separation may result. 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. Modi-fied or over heated sprinklers must be replaced. Care must be exercised to avoid damage before, during, and after instal-lation. Sprinklers damaged by drop-ping, striking, wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must be replaced. 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 Asso-ciation (e.g., NFPA 25), in addition to the standards of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Contact the install-ing contractor or product manufacturer with any questions. The owner must assure that the sprin-klers are not used for hanging any objects and that the sprinklers are only cleaned by means of gently dusting with a feather duster; otherwise, non-operation in the event of a fire or inad-vertent operation may result. Automatic sprinkler systems should be inspected, tested, and maintained by a qualified Inspection Service in accor-dance with local requirements and/or national codes. Installation TYCO RAPID RESPONSE Series LFII Residential Concealed Pendent Sprin-klers (TY3596) must be installed in accordance with this section. General InstructionsDamage to the fusible Link Assembly during installation can be avoided by handling the sprinkler by the support cup only (i.e., do not apply pressure to the fusible Link Assembly). A 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint should be obtained with a minimum to maximum torque of 7 to 14 lbs.-ft. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm). Higher levels of torque may distort the sprinkler inlet with consequent leakage or impairment of the sprinkler. Do not attempt to compensate for insufficient adjustment in the Cover Plate / Retainer Assembly by under-or over-tightening the Sprinkler. Read-just the position of the sprinkler fitting to suit. Step 1. The sprinkler must only be installed in the pendent position and with the centerline of the sprinkler per-pendicular to the mounting surface. Step 2. Remove the Protective Cap. Step 3. With pipe thread sealant applied to the pipe threads, and using the W-Type 18 Wrench shown in Figure 2, install and tighten the Sprinkler / Support Cup Assembly into the fitting. The W-Type 18 Wrench will accept a 1/2 inch ratchet drive. Step 4. Replace the Protective Cap by pushing it upwards until it bottoms out against the Support Cup. The Protec-tive Cap helps prevent damage to the Deflector and Guide Pins during ceiling installation and/or during application of the finish coating of the ceiling. It may also be used to locate the center of the clearance hole by gently pushing the ceiling material against the center point of the Cap. Note: As long as the protective Cap remains in place, the system is consid-ered to be “Out Of Service.” Step 5. After the ceiling has been completed with the 2-1/2 inch (63 mm) diameter clearance hole and in prep-aration for installing the Cover Plate Assembly, remove and discard the Pro-tective Cap, and verify that the Deflec-tor moves up and down freely. If the sprinkler has been damaged and the Deflector does not move up and down freely, replace the entire sprinkler assembly. Do not attempt to modify or repair a damaged sprinkler.

Installation The Riser Manifolds may be installed in either the horizontal (flow switch ontop) or vertical (flow going up). The inlet of the Riser Manifold may be di-rectly connected to a shut-off control valve. NOTES(1) Where applicable pipe thread sealant is to be applied sparingly. Useofa non-hardening pipe threadsealant is recommended. (2) Provisions for an alarm test flowmust be made. The alarm test flow isto be through an orifice having a flowcapacity equal to or smaller than thesmallestorificesprinklerinthesystem.One of two options can be considered. The first option is to temporarily installa test orifice in the outlet of the drain line prior to performing the alarm test.The second option is to install an In-spector’s Test Connection down-stream of the Waterflow Alarm Switch. (3) Never remove any piping compo- nent nor correct or modify any pipingdeficiencies without first depressuriz- ing and draining the system. Step 1.Install the manifold body withthe flow arrow pointing in the down-stream position using threaded con-nections and/or listed mechanicalgrooved connections, as applicable. Step 2.Connect the drain line, and then close the drain valve. Step 3.Refer to Figure 4 for wiringguidance. All wiring must be per-formed in accordance with the Author- ity Having Jurisdiction and/or the Na-tional Electrical Code. Step 4.Place the system in service by filling the system with water. When fill-ing the system, partially open the con- trol valve to slowly fill the system.Fill-ing the system slowly will help avoid damaging the waterflow alarm switch. After the system is fully pressurized,completely open the control valve. Step 5.Secure all supply valvesopen.

Because of the accuracy of construction and design, copper plumbing is more efficient and less expensive. NIBCO manufactures nine general types of fittings: Wrot Pressure; Cast Pressure; Wrot Drainage; Cast Drainage; Flanges; Flared Tube; Threaded Bronze; Insert Fittings for PEX; Barbed Insert Fittings for Polybutylene. Each has its particular place and use and each offers its own advantages when used for the proper service requirement. ALLOY AND FINISH — NIBCO Fittings are made from highest quality raw materials available — Cast Fittings are made from Copper Alloy C84400 which consists of 81% Copper, 7% Lead, 3% Tin, and 9% Zinc per ASTM Specification B584. Wrot Copper Fittings are made from commercially pure copper mill products per ASTM Specifications B75 Alloy C12200. NIBCO fittings are produced to meet requirements of applicable standards wherever practicable. NIBCO brand wrot and cast fittings are manufactured in the U.S.A. and Mexico. The manufacturing plants at South Glens Falls, NY, Stuarts Draft, VA, Nacogdoches, TX and Reynosa, Mexico are registered to ISO 9002 quality standards.

The flared type joint is wholly a mechanical means of joining copper tubes. The tube nut is placed over the end of the copper tube to be joined; the tube end then is flared out at an approximate 45 degree angle by a flaring tool. The flared end is then drawn up by the tube nut so the inside surface is tightly secured against the ball seat of the fitting. This joint can be readily dismantled at any time and is, in effect, a type of union connection. Its use is generally restricted to soft (annealed) copper tubes since hard drawn tubes would be subject to splitting when flared (if the ends were not previously annealed). The flared ends of NIBCO Flared Fittings are produced to the requirements of ASME B16.26, “Cast Copper Alloy Fittings for Flared Copper Tube.” Solder Joint — NIBCO pioneered the development of the solder joint and its application to the field of copper tube piping. Today the solder joint is widely adopted, as evidenced by the majority of cities and states that have written codes to include copper tube and solder joints as desirable for general plumbing, water lines, vent, stack, waste and drain lines, as well as other uses in industry. Testing has shown that often the solder joint has greater strength than the tubes being joined, depending upon the soldering alloy selected. While the method of preparing a solder joint is an exacting art to insure a full strength joint, it can be readily mastered by skilled tradesmen. It is for this reason — to insure the public of the protection afforded by properly prepared joints — that NIBCO products are marketed through the reputable sources of supply to the piping trades. Important procedures for preparing a solder joint are graphically illustrated in this catalog on page 95. Brazed Joint — This type of joint has long been used wherever and whenever critical situations have been encountered in copper piping. The joint itself is completed much in the same manner as the solder joint; however, considerably more heat and several refinements of technique require separate procedures that are described further in this catalog on pages 96-97. Threaded Ends — To adapt copper tube to equipment having National Standard Pipe Taper (NPT) threads or to add copper tube to existing iron pipe installations or other threaded connections, NIBCO provides fittings having both external and internal NPT threads. These threaded ends are produced to the requirements of ASME B1.20.1, “Pipe Threads, General Purpose (Inch).” Flanges — To adapt copper tube to equipment having flanged connections, or to add copper tube to flanged pipe installations or other purposes, NIBCO provides flanges. The flanges are produced in two standard types widely used in this field where copper tube can serve — Class 150, comply with ASME B16.24, “Cast Copper Alloy Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings Class 150, 300, 400, 600, 900, 1500 and 2500”; and Class 125, which conform to MSS SP 106, “Cast Copper Alloy Flanges and Flanged Fittings Class 125, 150 and 300.” Barbed Insert Fittings for Polybutylene (PB) — NIBCO offers a complete line of copper barbed insert fittings for joining PB tube. The insert fittings are produced to the requirements of ASTM F 1380. Along with the insert fittings are copper crimp rings, which, when properly installed, provide a leak-tight mechanical joint. Transition fittings are available for adapting to new or existing threaded or solder joint ends. Barbed Insert Fittings for PEX — NIBCO offers a complete line of copper barbed insert fittings for joining PEX tube. The insert fittings are produced to the requirements of ASTM F 1807. Along with the insert fittings are copper crimp rings, which, when properly installed, provide a leak-tight mechanical joint. Transition fittings are available for adapting to new or existing threaded or solder joint ends.

Depth of Solder Penetration drastically affects the breaking load of the joint. When there is too great a soldering clearance, there is no capillary flow to assure complete solder penetration. As shown in the chart below, the holding power of the 3/4-inch joint is directly proportional to the depth of solder penetration. For example: If you get only one-third penetration, you get approximately one-third the strength needed to assure complete satisfaction.

It is therefore essential that you install tube and fittings manufactured by companies known to be dedicated to the highest quality control standards. Should you encounter a condition where there is difficulty in filling the joint properly, NIBCO will analyze the trouble without charge. Just send six inches of the tube, along with the fitting and our technicians will provide you with an authoritative report. Solder penetration of one-third the cup depth — breaking load, approximately 2,100 lb. (955 kg) Solder penetration of the entire cup depth — breaking load approximately 7,000 lb. (3175 kg) U.S. customary units in this document are the standard; the metric units are provided for reference only. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents.

Copper tubes will stand up under ordinary conditions, but the user is specifically cautioned against laying underground tube in cinderfill, especially if the ground is apt to be wet. Due to the sulphur compounds in the cinders, a condition of this kind may corrode the outside of the tubes. This may be overcome either by wrapping the tube with canvas and asphaltum or by surrounding the tube with a bed of clean sand mixed with lime, or with limestone or broken plaster. When conditions are doubtful, it is advisable to consult the Copper Development Association, or the tube manufacturer. Annealed copper tubes are generally recommended for underground use. 1/2" annealed copper tubes have been frozen as many as six times before finally bursting, eight times for 1" size, and eleven times for 2" size. Hard drawn copper tubes, however, burst during the first freezing the same as iron pipe. (Condensed from Copper Tube Handbook.)

The iron pipe is standard weight, schedule 40, bare pipe, except as to Column I where new galvanized pipe is referred to. COLUMN B: From manufacturers’ specifications. Slight variations can be noted between specifications of different manufacturers, but these figures are representative. COLUMN C: From manufacturers’ specifications with the same considerations as noted for Column B. COLUMN D: From manufacturers’ specifications. COLUMN E: Cubic contents of 10 linear feet/3.05 linear metres of tube and have been calculated from dimeters given in Column B, by the formula for the contents of a cylinder. COLUMN F: This column has been calculated from Column E and shows the number of BTUs (kilojoules) required to heat the water content only of 10 feet (3.05 metres) of the given tube and pipe 100 F (38 C). It requires 833.6 BTUs (879.5 kJ) to heat 1 gallon (3.875 litres) of water 100 F (38 C). COLUMN G: These figures are calculated from Column D and show the number of BTUs (kJ) required to raise the temperature of 10 feet (3.05 metres) of empty tube and pipe 100 F (38 C). Due to difference in the specific heat of the materials, it requires 9.4 BTUs (9.9 kJ) to raise 1 pound (0.454 kilograms) of copper 100 F (38 C) and 11.0 BTUs (11.6 kJ) to raise 1 pound (0.454 kilograms) of iron 100 F (38 C). COLUMN H: This column shows the heat emission from 10 feet (3.05 metres) of the given tube and pipe placed horizontally. The column in terms of BTUs lost per hour (kilojoules lost per hour) for each degree of difference in temperature between the pipe and the surrounding air. The figures for iron are taken from experimental data obtained at the Mellon Institute. Figures for copper have been calculated with reference to those for iron on the basis of the known ratio of heat emission between the two materials. COLUMN I: This column shows the number of gallons (litres) of water which will flow through 100 feet (30.48 metres) of the given tube and pipe with a pressure loss of 10 pounds per square inch (70 kilopascals). Flow is based on diameters in Column B according to Professor Dawson’s formulae for NEW galvanized iron pipe and NEW copper tube. Due to the corrosion of iron and its tendency to accumulate sediments and other foreign matter, Prof. Dawson suggests that 15% be deducted from the figures for iron pipe in order to arrive at a reasonable performance expectancy for such pipe in service.

Mains, risers, and branches to radiators should be free or floating at one end of the line. Holes should be large enough to permit free movement of the tube, and care should be exercised so that pipe hangers and supports permit unrestricted movement and do not anchor the tube. Wrought copper tube hangers that are both practicable and neat in appearance are available. Unusually long runs of copper tubing should be provided with an expansion bend or loop. By bending soft temper copper tube, a simple form of expansion loop can be made. With the addition of combination flared-tube to solder joint fittings, as illustrated in Figure 1, these types of loops can be used when space or other limitations exist. The correct proportions of such expansion loop to meet various conditions are shown in the accompanying table. FIGURE 1 EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION U.S. customary units in this document are the standard; the metric units are provided for reference only. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents. The above chart is calculated using 10ft (3.05m) of copper tubing as the reference point. You may use it as follows: 100ft (30.5m) of copper tube, with a 200 F (93.3 C) temperature change. Reference point .2256 inches for 10ft, (5.73mm for 3.05m), multipy by 10 for 100ft (30.5m), resulting in an answer of 2.256 inches (57.3mm) of expansion or contraction. NOTE: Calculations for expansion and contraction should be based on the average coefficient of expansion of copper which is 0.0000094 per F (0.00001692 per C) between 77 F and 212 F (25 C and 100 C). For example, the expansion for each 10ft (3.05m) of any size of tube heated from room temperature of 70 F (21.1 C) to 170 F (76.7 C), that is, 100 F (55.6 C) rise, is: Rise Coefficient 100 F 10ft 12 inches 0.000094 0.1128 in.xx x =(55.6 C) (3.05m) (1000mm) (0.00001692) (2.87mm) a.

With the use of copper tube, no allowance is necessary for the accumulation of rust deposits in supply and service lines. Consequently, copper tube lines are usually figured one size smaller than iron pipe for the same service. This rule does not apply to lines from a well to a pump where the nominal diameters specified by the pump manufacturer must be adhered to strictly. Water passing through any pipe line encounters resistance by friction. The resistance is increased by bends and turns in the line, which should be taken into account in complex piping systems. For example, a one-inch 90 elbow will cause friction loss equivalent to that of one foot (0.305m) of straight one-inch tube. (See below for allowance to be made for fittings and valves in equivalent lengths of tube.) Friction loss in terms of head loss must be taken into consideration in calculating tube sizes to be used for various types of installations. For most average-size-house installations with water pressures 40 PSI (275.8kPa) and higher, 3/4" copper tube will be ample for main supply lines, and 1/2" copper tube can be used for risers and branches to all fixtures. The smaller 3/8" tube is adequate to supply branches, but with pressures at 40 PSI (275.8kPa) and higher, water hammer becomes a concern when the flow is suddenly stopped.

Cut tube end square, ream, burr and size. When adjoining surfaces of copper and copper alloys meet under proper conditions of cleanliness and temperature, solder will make a perfect adhesion. The strength of joint is equal to or even greater than the strength of tube alone. Surface tension seals the joint. Capillary attraction draws solder into, around, and all about the joint. It’s easy to learn to make a perfect solder joint when you use NIBCO Fittings. WITH 95-5 SOLDER AND INTERMEDIATELY CORROSIVE FLUX 6. Remove excess solder with a small brush or wiping cloth while the solder is plastic. 2. Use sand cloth or steel wire brush to clean tube and cup to a bright metal finish. 3. Apply solder flux to outside of tube and inside of cup of fitting carefully so that surfaces to be joined are completely covered.Use flux sparingly. 4. Apply flame to the fitting to heat tube and solder cup of fitting until solder melts when placed at joint of tube and fitting. 5. Remove flame and feed solder into the joint at one or two points until a ring of solder appears at the end of the fitting. The correct amount of solder is approximately equal to 11/2 the diameter of the fitting… 3/4" (20mm) solder for 1/2" fitting, etc. 4 For the most up to date information, visit www.sammysuperscrew.com Wood Flooring Wood Joist Double Sheetrock Ceiling Approvals Rod Size Part Number Model Screw Descriptions Ultimate Pullout (lbs) UL Test Load (lbs) FM Test Load (lbs) Box Qty Case Qty 1/4" 8002957 GST 100 1/4 x 1" 210 (7/16” OSB)670 (3/4” Ply)25 125 1/4" 8003957 GST 200 1/4 x 2" 1760 (Fir) 25 125 1/4" 8004957 GST 300 1/4 x 3" 2060 (Fir) 25 125 3/8" 8006957 GST .75 1/4 x 3/4" 564 (3/4" Ply) 25 125 3/8" 8007957 GST 10 1/4 x 1" 210 (7/16” OSB) 670 (3/4” Ply)300 25 125 3/8" 8008957 GST 20 1/4 x 2" 1760 (Fir) 850 1475 25 125 3/8" 8068925 GST 20-SS 1/4 x 2" 1760 (Fir) 850 25 125 3/8" 8009925 GST 25-380 3/8 x 2-1/2" 2113 (Fir) 1500 25 125 3/8" 8010957 GST 30 1/4 x 3" 2060 (Fir) 1500 1475 25 125 3/8" 8069925 GST 30-SS 1/4 x 3" 2060 (Fir) 25 125 3/8" 8011925 GST 40 1/4 x 4" 2180 (Fir) 25 125 3/8" 8012925 GST 60 1/4 x 6" 2230 (Fir) 25 125 1/2" 8013925 GST 2 1/4 x 2" 1760 (Fir) 25 125 1/2" 8014925 GST 2.5-380 3/8 x 2-1/2" 2113 (Fir) 25 125 1/2" 8015925 GST 3 1/4 x 3" 2275 (Fir) 25 125 1/2" 8016925 GST 4 1/4 x 4" 2180 (Fir) 25 125 1/2" 8017925 GST 6 1/4 x 6" 2230 (Fir) 25 125 Not less than 2” nominal width (1-1/2”) Not less than 3” nominal thickness (2-1/2”) (depth or side of vertical member) VERTICAL MOUNT WOOD WOOD WOOD WOOD WOODSAMMYS® for Wood Installs VERTICALLY into the bottom of wood structures easily and quickly! #14 Black Nut Driver Part # 8113910 SPECIAL NUT DRIVER SYSTEM: The nut drivers were designed with a unique spin-off feature which provides a fast and safe installation each time.
