Technical Services 877-384-5464 Fax: 269-818-1680 Email: techsvcs@vikingcorp.com 1. DESCRIPTION Viking Freedom® Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK456 is a small highsensitivity
solder link and lever residential sprinkler designed for installation on concealed pipe systems where the appearance of a smooth ceiling is desired. The orifice design, with a K-Factor
of 4.9 (70.6 metric*), allows the sprinkler’s efficient use of available water supplies for the hydraulically designed fire-protection system. The fast response operating element and
special deflector combine speed of operation and areas of coverage to meet residential sprinkler standards. The sprinkler is pre-assembled with a threaded adapter for installation with
a lowprofile small-diameter cover assembly installed flush to the ceiling. The two-piece design allows installation and testing of the sprinkler prior to installation of the cover plate.
The “push-on”, “thread-off” design of the concealed cover plate assembly allows easy installation of the cover plate after the system has been tested and the ceiling finish has been
applied, while also providing up to ½” (12.7 mm) of vertical adjustment. The cover assembly can be removed and reinstalled, allowing temporary removal of ceiling panels without taking
the sprinkler system out of service or removing the sprinkler. 2. LISTINGS AND APPROVALS cULus Listed: Category VKKW NYC Approved: MEA 89-92-E, Volume 36 NSF Certified: NSF/ANSI Standard

techsvcs@vikingcorp.com freedom® residential concealed pendent sprinkler vk456 (K4.9) Ordering Information: (Also refer to the current Viking price list.) Viking Freedom® Residential
Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK456 and Cover Plate Assembly must be ordered separately: Sprinkler: Part No. 13620AJ (includes a 140 °F (60 °C) rated sprinkler with a protective plastic
cap covering the unit). Cover Plate Assembly: Base Part No. 13750 (2-3/4” diameter), Base Part No. 14934 (3-5/16” diameter), or Base Part No. 15394 (square cover plate, 3-5/16” diameter)
Specify finish and temperature rating of the cover plate assembly by first adding the appropriate suffix for the finish and then the appropriate suffix for the cover temperature rating
to the base part number: Finish Suffix: Polished Chrome = F, Painted White = M-/SW1004, Painted Ivory = M-/SW1634, Painted Black = M-/SW1007 Temperature Suffix (°F/°C): 135°/57° = A
For example, cover 13750 with a Polished Chrome finish and a 135 °F/57 °C temperature rating = 13750FA. Available Finishes And Temperature Ratings: Refer to Table 1 Accessories: (Also
refer to the “Sprinkler Accessories” section of the Viking data book.) Sprinkler Wrenches**: A. Heavy Duty Wrench Part No. 13623W/B (available since 2006), or B. Head Cabinet Wrench

Part No. 14867 (available since 2007) **Requires a ½” ratchet (not available from Viking). ***Also optional for removal of the protective cap. Ideal for sprinkler cabinets. Sprinkler
Cabinet: Part No. 01731A, Capacity: five (5) sprinklers (available since 1971) 4. Installation Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards. 5. Operation During fire conditions,
when the temperature around around the sprinkler approaches its operating temperature, the cover plate detaches. Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the fusible element
to disengage, releasing the deflector and sealing assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern over a specific area of
coverage determined by the water supply pressure at the sprinkler to extinguish or control the fire. 6. inspections, tests and maintenance Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and
Maintenance requirements. 7. availability Viking Sprinkler Model VK456 is available through a network of domestic and international distributors. See The Viking Corporation web site

Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Upright and Conventional (Old Style) Sprinklers are small, thermosensitive, glass-bulb spray sprinklers available in several different finishes,
temperature ratings, and K-Factors to meet design requirements. The special Polyester and Teflon® coatings can be used in decorative applications where colors are desired. In addition,
these coatings 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 Polyester coatings as corrosion resistant.) 2. LISTINGS AND APPROVALS cULus Listed: Category VNIV FM Approved: Class 2020 NYC Approved: Calendar

techsvcs@vikingcorp.com MICROFAST® AND MicrofastHP® QUICK RESPONSE UPRIGHT AND CONVENTIONAL SPRINKLERS For Polyester Coated Sprinklers: Belleville Spring-Exposed Ordering Information:
(Also refer to the current Viking price list.) Order Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Upright and Conventional Sprinklers by first adding the appropriate suffix for the sprinkler
finish and then the appropriate suffix for the temperature rating to the sprinkler base part number. Finish Suffix: Brass = A, Chrome-Enloy® = F, White Polyester = M-/W, Black Polyester
= M-/B, and Black Teflon® = N Temperature Suffix (°F/°C): 135°/68° = A, 155°/68° = B, 175°/79° = D, 200°/93° = E, and 286°/141° = G For example, sprinkler VK300 with a 1/2” thread, Brass
finish and a 155 °F/68 °C temperature rating = Part No. 06661BAB Available Finishes And Temperature Ratings: Refer to Table 1 Accessories: (Also refer to the “Sprinkler Accessories”
section of the Viking data book.) Sprinkler Wrenches: Standard Wrench: Part No. 10896W/B (available since 2000) Sprinkler Cabinets: A. Six-head capacity: Part No. 01724A (available since
1971) B. Twelve-head capacity: Part No. 01725A (available since 1971) 4. INSTALLATION Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards. 5. OPERATION During fire conditions, the heat-sensitive
liquid in the glass bulb expands, causing the glass 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. 6. INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements. 7. AVAILABILITY
The Viking Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Upright and Conventional Sprinklers are available through a network of domestic and international distributors. See The Viking Corporation
web site for the closest distributor or contact The Viking Corporation. 8. GUARANTEE For details of warranty, refer to Viking’s current list price schedule or contact Viking directly.
