impediment to the space above.
Concealed cover plate/cup assemblies are listed only
for use with specific sprinklers. The use of any other con-
cealed cover plate/cup assembly with the Model F1FR56-
300 QREC Pendent Sprinkler or the use of the Model CCP
concealed cover plate assembly on any sprinkler with
which it is not specifically listed may prevent good fire
protection and will void all guarantees, warranties, listings
and approvals.
Glass bulb sprinklers have orange bulb protectors to
minimize bulb damage during shipping, handling and
installation. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION AT THE TIME
THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS PLACED IN SERVICE FOR
FIRE PROTECTION. Removal of the protectors before this
time may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage. RASCO
wrenches are designed to install sprinklers when covers
are in place. REMOVE PROTECTORS BY UNDOING THE
CLASP BY HAND. DO NOT USE TOOLS TO REMOVE
THE PROTECTORS.
Maintenance
Model F1FR56-300 QREC Sprinklers should be inspect-
ed and the sprinkler system maintained in accordance
with NFPA 25. Do not clean sprinklers with soap and water,
ammonia or any other cleaning fluids. Remove dust by us-
ing a soft brush or gentle vacuuming. Remove any sprin-
kler that has been painted (other than factory applied) or
damaged in any way. A stock of spare sprinklers should
be maintained to allow quick replacement of damage or
operated sprinklers. Prior to installation, sprinklers should
be maintained in the original cartons and packaging until
used to minimize the potential for damage to sprinklers
that would cause improper operation or non-operation.
