Technical Data
Tyco Fire Products (TFP) BlazeMaster®CPVC pipe and
fittings are designed exclusively for use in wet pipe
automatic fire sprinkler systems. They are made from a
specially developed thermoplastic compound composed of
post chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) resin and state of
the art additives. TFP BlazeMaster
®CPVC products are
easier to install than traditional steel pipe systems, and at
the same time, they provide superior heat resistance and
strength as compared to traditional CPVC and PVC piping
materials used in the plumbing trade. Various adapters are
available to connect CPVC pipe to metallic piping. All female
pipe thread adapters have brass inserts for durability.
Grooved adapters connect directly to grooved end valves
and metallic pipe, with flexible grooved end couplings.
Sizes:3/4"– 3"
Maximum Working Pressure:175 psi
Approvals:UL, FM, CUL, NSF, Dade County, LPCB,
MEA, and the City of Los Angeles
Note:See current TFP BlazeMaster Installation Instructions and
Technical Manual, for exact listing/approval information

VSR-SG
VANE TYPE WATERFLOW
ALARM SWITCH WITH RETARD
AND GLUE-IN UNION
FOR CPVC PIPE
General Information
The Model VSR-SG is a vane type waterfl ow switch for use on wet
sprinkler systems using CPVC plastic fi ttings (manufactured by Tyco,
Nibco, Victaulic, Ipex, and Spears Manufacturing Company) that use 1”,
1 ¼”, 1 ½”, or 2” pipe sizes. It is equipped with a union to accommodate
installation in confi ned spaces.
The VSR-SG contains two single pole, double throw, snap action
switches and an adjustable, instantly recycling pneumatic retard. The
switches are actuated when a fl ow of 10 GPM (38 LPM) or more
occurs downstream of the device. The fl ow condition must exist for a
period of time necessary to overcome the selected retard period.
UL, CUL and CSFM Listed
Service Pressure: Up to 175 PSI (12,07 BAR)
Flow Sensitivity Range for Signal: 4-10 GPM (15-38 LPM) - UL
Maximum Surge: 18 FPS (5.5 m/s)
Contact Ratings: Two sets of SPDT (Form C)
10.0 Amps at 125/250VAC
2.0 Amps at 30VDC Resistive
10 mAmps min. at 24VDC
Conduit Entrances: Two openings provided for 1/2" conduit.
Individual switch compartments suitable
for dissimilar voltages.
Environmental Specifi cations:
• NEMA 4/IP54 Rated Enclosure suitable for indoor or
outdoor use with factory installed gasket and die-cast housing
when used with appropriate conduit fi tting.
• Temperature Range: 40°F - 120°F, (4.5°C - 49°C) - UL
Service Use:
Automatic Sprinkler NFPA-13
One or two family dwelling NFPA-13D
Residential occupancy up to four stories NFPA-13R
National Fire Alarm Code NFPA-72
• Installation must be performed by qualifi ed personnel and in
accordance with all national and local codes and ordinances.
• Shock hazard. Disconnect power source before servicing. Serious
injury or death could result.
• Risk of explosion. Not for use in hazardous locations. Serious
injury or death could result.
Specifi cations subject to change without notice.
Stock Number: 1144460
Optional: Cover Tamper Switch Kit, stock no. 0090148
Replaceable Components: Retard/Switch Assembly, stock no. 1029030
Enclosure
The VSR-SG switches and retard device are enclosed in a general
purpose, die-cast housing. The cover is held in place with two tamper
resistant screws which require a special key for removal. A fi eld
installable cover tamper switch is available as an option which may
be used to indicate unauthorized removal of the cover. See bulletin
number 5401103 for installation instructions of this switch.
Waterfl ow switches that are monitoring wet pipe sprinkler systems shall
not be used as the sole initiating device to discharge AFFF, deluge,
or chemical suppression systems. Waterfl ow switches used for this
application may result in unintended discharges caused by surges,
trapped air, or short retard times.

Notes:
1. For NFPA 13 installations the flow per sprinkler must be the greater of: (1) the flow listed in the table above or (2) the flow required to
achieve a minimum design density of 0.1 gpm/sq ft over the design area of the sprinkler.
2. For coverage area dimensions less than those listed above, use the minimum required flow for the next larger max. coverage area listed.

Products Description
The Model DH56 are quick response extended coverage
sidewalldrysprinklersforuseinlighthazardapplications. The
Model DH56 dry sprinkler with SWC cover plate is a
concealed sprinkler that uses Reliable’s push on/thread off
sidewallcover.Thissprinklerhasthecupfactorymountedand
is shipped with a bulb protector that protects the 3mm
frangible glass bulb during shipping and post installation
finishing operations. The DH56 can be combined in the field
with the FP or F2 Escutcheon to make a recessed dry
sprinkler. The SWC cover plate, FP and F2 recessed
escutcheons have ½” adjustment. The SWC cover plate is
attached with 135 & 165 degree solder. In the event of a fire
the rising ambient temperature melts the solder and the cover
plate is ejected away by springs exposing the 3mm frangible
glass bulb. The use of a 3mm bulb allows quick response
whichenablesthesprinklertoapplywatertoafiresoonerthan
standardresponsesprinklersofthesametemperaturerating.
ModelDH56drysprinklersareintendedforuseinenclosed
dry and preaction systems and in enclosed areas subjected
to freezing temperatures and unheated portions inside
buildings.
Environments wherein dry sprinklers are employed can be
corrosive. For this reason, Model DH56 dry sprinklers have a
special wax fillet placed in the gap between the cup that
supports the bulb and the wrenching boss. This wax will not
interfere with the operation of the sprinkler, and it prevents
contaminants from entering the internal portion of the drop
nipple. The wax must not be removed.
Application
The Model DH56 is a horizontal sidewall dry sprinkler
intended for installation in light hazard occupancies in
accordance with NFPA 13. These sprinklers are designed to
provide fire protection in long and narrow spaces such as
hallways, corridors, decks and rooms up to 28 feet (8,5m)
wide and 10 feet (3m) long. They are rated for 250 psi (17,2
bar) and can be mounted between 4 and 12 inches (102 and
305mm) down from the ceiling.
(1)See Figure 4.
General Installation Instructions
Model DH56 dry sprinklers must be installed only in
standard (ANSI B 16.3 class 150 and ANSI B 16.4 class
125)pipeteesevenatbranchlineends. Theyshouldnotbe
installed into elbows and pipe couplings located on drop
nipples to the sprinklers. For these and other fittings
including CPVC*, the dry sprinkler should be installed into a
fitting to conform to protrusion into the fitting in accordance
with the diagrams. The "A" dimension of the dry sprinkler,
which extends into a freezing zone from wet pipe systems,
should be selected to provide, as a minimum, the specified
lengths in inches shown in the following chart, between face
of the fitting and the outside wall or ceiling of the protected
area. Thefollowingchartisusedforfreezingzoneswhenthe

protected during plastering and painting operations by
reinstalling the protective cap P/N 6802710003. Installation
is completed by removing the protective cap and inserting
the push-on escutcheon. Turn clockwise to adjust the
escutcheon against the wall.

Concealed cover/cup assemblies are listed only for use
with specific sprinklers. The use of any other concealed
cover/cup assembly with the Model DH56 Horizontal Sidewall
Sprinkler or the use of the concealed cover assembly on any
sprinkler with which it is not specifically listed will void all
guarantees, warranties, listings and approvals.
Note:DH56 and DH56 Recessed Sprinklers have orange
bulb protectors to minimize bulb damage during shipping,
handling, and installation. REMOVE THIS PROTECTION AT
THE TIME THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM IS PLACED IN
SERVICEFORFIREPROTECTION.Removaloftheprotectors
before this time may leave the bulb vulnerable to damage.
RASCO wrenches are designed to install sprinklers when
covers are in place. REMOVE PROTECTORS BY UNDOING
THE CLASP BY HAND. DO NOT USE TOOLS TO REMOVE
THE PROTECTORS.

Maintenance
Model DH56 Quick Response Dry Sprinklers should be
inspected quarterly and the sprinkler system maintained in
accordance with NFPA 25. Do not remove the factory applied
thermally sensitive wax fillet between the bulb supporting cup
and the wrenching boss. Do not replace this wax with a
substitute substance. An alternate substance may interfere
with proper operation of the sprinkler. Do not clean sprinklers
with soap and water, ammonia or any other cleaning fluids.
Remove dust by using a soft brush or gentle vacuuming.
Remove any sprinkler which has been painted (other than
factory applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare
sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick replacement of
damagedoroperatedsprinklers.Priortoinstallation,sprinklers
should be maintained in their original cartons and packaging
