Care and
Maintenance
TYCO Series EC-11 and EC-14
Extended Coverage Upright and
Pendent Sprinklers 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
systems from the proper authorities
and notify all personnel who may be
affected by this action.
Sprinklers which are found to be
leaking or exhibiting visible signs of
corrosion must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be
painted, plated, coated, or other-
wise altered after leaving the factory.
Modified sprinklers must be replaced.
Sprinklers that have been exposed to
corrosive products of combustion, but
have not operated, should be replaced
if they cannot be completely cleaned
by wiping the sprinkler with a cloth or
by brushing it with a soft bristle brush.
Care must be exercised to avoid
damage to the sprinklers before,
during, and after installation. Sprin-
klers damaged by dropping, striking,
wrench twist/slippage, or the like, must
be replaced. Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb. Refer to the Instal-
lation section, for more information.
Frequent visual inspections are rec-
ommended to be initially performed
for corrosion resistant coated sprin-
klers, after the installation has been
completed, to verify the integrity of the
corrosion resistant coating. Thereafter,
annual inspections per NFPA 25 should
suffice; however, instead of inspecting
from the floor level, a random sampling
of close-up visual inspections should
be made, so as to better determine the
exact sprinkler condition and the long
term integrity of the corrosion resistant
coating, as it may be affected by the
corrosive conditions present.
The owner is responsible for the
inspection, testing, and maintenance
of their fire protection system and
devices in compliance with this doc-
ument, as well as with the applicable
standards recognized by the Approval
agency, such as NFPA 25, in addition to
the standards of any authorities having
jurisdiction. Contact the installing con-
tractor or product manufacturer with
any questions.
Automatic sprinkler systems are rec-
ommended to be inspected, tested,
and maintained by a qualified Inspec-
tion Service in accordance with local
requirements and/or national codes.
