DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
“The Globe Quick Response Model | Dry Type Pendent Sprinkler is designed for
use in special applications such as freezing environments and conditions where
sediment or foreign materials might accumulate in ordinary drop nipples.
‘The Globe Quick Response Model | Dry Type Pendent Sprinkler utilizes a 3mm
frangible glace ampule as the thermorensitive element. This provides sprinkler
operation approximately six times faster than ordinary sprinklers. At the ampule's
rated temperature, the sprinkler opens which causes the release ofthe seat insert,
allowing te Inner eube and the ball stop to drop dow allowing Ue Lal Leas, =
ringand piston tobe releasedand ejected through the sprinkler withthe water stream.
‘Acthis time, water flows without obstruction through the sprinkler andis distributed
by the deflector, inthe approved discharge pattern. While the Quick Response
Sprinkler provides an aesthetically pleasing appearance, it can be installed wherever
standard spray sprinklers are specified but offers the additional feature of greatly
increasedsafeytolife. Quick Response Sprinklers should beusedadvisedly andunder
the direction of approving authorities having jurisdiction.
The heartof Globe's Model J sprinkler proven actuatingassembly isa hermetically
sealed frangible gass ampule that contains precisely measuredamountof fluid. When
heat is absorbed, the liquid within the bulb expands increasing the internal pressure,
‘Atthe prescribed temperature the internal pressure within the ampule exceeds the
strength ofthe glass causing che glass to shatter. This results in water discharge which
is distributed in an approved pattern.
