dard coverage sprinklers with a nominal K-Factor of 5.6 (80

configurations, Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers all use a 3 mm
glass bulb operating element. See the Temperature Rat-
ings table in this Bulletin for available temperature ratings.
Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers are intended for installation
on wet-pipe, dry-pipe, or preaction sprinkler systems in ac-
cordance with NFPA 13, FM Property Loss Prevention Data
Sheets, and other applicable installation standards.
Model F3QR56 Dry sprinklers are available with a vari-
ety of escutcheon options as illustrated in Figs. 1 through
