Description
Reliable Model G Series sprinklers are standard-response standard spray automatic sprinklers using a solder capsule thermal element. The solder is captured in the cylinder of the capsule by a stainless steel ball. When the solder melts, the ball moves into the cylinder allowing the thermal element to fall away from the sprinkler. When this occurs, the compressed strut and lever spring free from the sprinkler. System pressure then clears the waterway of all operating parts allowing the deflector to evenly distribute water.
Pendent and horizontal sidewall sprinklers may be installed exposed or surface mounted using escutcheons such as the Reliable Models B, C, or HB.
When installed recessed, the Model G Series sprinklers are specifically listed with and may only be installed with listed Reliable escutcheons.
