Step 8.

 Connect system pipe or fitting.

•  Threaded Fitting Installations 

(Figure 1) - With TEFLON paste 

sealant applied to IFP Fitting pipe 

threads, connect system fitting. A 

leak-tight 3/4 inch NPT fitting joint 

should be obtained by applying 

minimum-to-maximum torque of 

10 to 20 lb-ft (13,4 to 26,8 N·m). 

Higher levels of torque can distort 

the Fitting inlet with consequent 

leakage of Fitting or impairment of 

Nozzle.

•  Socket-Weld Fitting Installations 

(Figure 2) - Insert prepared end of 

3/4 Inch system pipe into IFP Fitting 

weld socket until fully engaged. 

Weld full circumference of pipe at 

juncture with face of IFP Fitting 

weld socket.

Care and 

Maintenance

The TYCO Type IFP AQUAMIST 

Recessed Nozzle Fittings 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 

that it controls, obtain permission to 

shut down the affected fire protection 

system from the proper authorities 

and notify all personnel who may be 

affected by this action.
Type IFP AQUAMIST Recessed Nozzle 

Fittings must never be painted, plated, 

coated or altered in any way after 

leaving the factory; otherwise, the 

spray performance may be impaired.
Care must be exercised to avoid 

damage to the nozzles -before, during, 

and after installation. Nozzles damaged 

by dropping, striking, wrench twist/slip-

page, or the like, must be replaced.
Frequent visual inspections are rec-

ommended to be initially performed 

for nozzles installed in potentially cor-

rosive atmospheres to verify the integ-

rity of the materials of construction and 

finish as they may be affected by the 

corrosive conditions present for a given 

installation. Thereafter, annual inspec-

tions per NFPA 25 are required.

The owner is responsible for the inspec-

tion, 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 nozzle manufacturer 

with any questions.
Water spray fixed systems should be 

inspected, tested, and maintained by 

a qualified Inspection Service in accor-

dance with local requirements and/or 

national codes
If the Cap does not remain in place on 

the Fitting, it is recommended that the 

Link/Cap Subassembly be replaced.
