Refer to Technical Data Sheet 

TFP2300 for warnings pertaining to 

regulatory and health information.
Always refer to Technical Data 

Sheet TFP700 for the “INSTALLER  

WARNING” that provides cautions 

with respect to handling and instal-

lation of sprinkler systems and com-

ponents. Improper handling and 

installation can permanently damage 

a sprinkler system or its compo-

nents and cause the sprinkler to fail  

to operate in a fire situation or cause  

it to operate prematurely.

NOTICE

The 

TYCO Model TN-25 Horizontal 

Spray Nozzle

 described herein must 

be installed and maintained in compli-

ance with this document and with the 

applicable standards recognized by any 

authorities having jurisdiction. Failure 

to do so may impair the performance 

of these devices.
The design of individual fixed water 

spray systems for fire protection 

can vary considerably, depending 

on the characteristics and nature of 

the hazard, the basic purpose of the 

spraying system, the configuration of 

the hazard, and wind/draft/ventilation 

conditions. Because of these varia-

tions, the design of fixed water spray 

systems must only be performed by 

experienced designers who thoroughly 

understand the limitations as well as 

capabilities of such systems.
The Tunnel Operator is responsible for 

maintaining their fire protection system 

and devices in proper operating con-

dition. Contact the installing contrac-

tor or product manufacturer with any 

questions.

General 

Description

The TYCO Model TN-25 Horizontal 

Spray Nozzle having a 25.2 (K360) 

K-factor is a specialized open nozzle 

for use in tunnel fire protection deluge 

systems, providing an improved alter-

native to traditional designs. With its 

ability to provide extended coverage, 

the Model TN-25 Nozzle allows for a 

single pipe to run the length of a tunnel, 

compared to traditional designs that 

use multiple pipes in order to provide 

sufficient coverage. The Model TN-25 

Nozzle is an open nozzle designed to 

be integrated into a deluge fire protec-

tion system.
The Model TN-25 Nozzle provides 

protection of coverage areas up to 

16 ft 4 in. x 24 ft 7 in. (5,0 m x 7,5 m) 

as compared to standard coverage 

sprinklers often used in tunnel fire 

protection system designs having a 

maximum coverage area of 10 ft x 10 ft 

(3,0 m x 3,0 m).
