Model HIP, Specific Application Sprinkler (used for Protecting Attics), 5.6 K-factor, 200F, Glass Bulb
General Description
The HIP Sprinkler covers the area of the hip in the attic. The HIP sprinkler is located along the slope running down the hip, and throws a 90 degree pattern toward the eaves. This pattern allows the water to corner and control the fire. The HIP sprinkler does not discharge much water directly up or down the hip, but rather it discharges most of the pattern out to each side 90 degrees down the slope of the roof.
This sprinkler is typically spaced 6 feet (1,8 m) to 3 feet (0,9 m) on center down the slope. To use the HIP sprinkler, the framing must be perpendicular to the outside wall and the maximum throw cannot exceed 28 feet (8,5 m) measured horizontally. The HIP is installed with the deflector parallel with the slope.
IMPORTANT Always refer to Technical Data Sheet TFP700 for the INSTALLER WARNING that provides cautions with respect to handling and installation of sprinkler systems and components. Improper handling and installation can permanently damage a sprinkler system or its components and cause the sprinkler to fail to operate in a fire situation or cause it to operate prematurely.
WARNING The Specific Application Sprinklers for Protecting Attics described herein must be installed and maintained in compliance with the corresponding technical data page, as well as with the applicable standards of the National Fire Protection Association, in addition to the standards of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do so may impair the performance of these devices.
