on a regular basis to detect possible
damage or alterations to the sprinkler

include making certain that the Insti-
tutional Escutcheon is held fast to the
mounting surface. Damaged or al-
tered sprinklers are to be replaced im-
mediately to avoid personal injury
and to prevent use for causing per-

the sprinkler system in an operative
condition.

ing or exhibiting visible signs of corro-
sion must be replaced.

shipped or stored where their tempera-
tures will exceed 100°F/38°C and they
must never be painted, plated, coated,
or otherwise altered after leaving the

klers must be replaced.
Care must be exercised to avoid dam-
age to the sprinklers - before, during,
and after installation. Sprinklers dam-
aged by dropping, striking, wrench
twist/slippage, or the like, must be re-
placed.
Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has lost
liquid from its bulb (ref. Installation
Section).

spection, testing, and maintenance of
