Sprinkler
TOTAL WALTHER

The water discharged from the sprinkler is distributed by the deflector over the location of the fire. The area protected by each sprinkler is determined by the hazard and can vary from 9m2 to 21m2. The selection of the deflector is based upon the specific application, its upright or pendent position within the sprinkler distribution pipework and its spray pattern.

Sprinklers are manufactured with three different connection sizes (10, 15 and 20mm) which have different water outputs (57, 80 and 115litres/minute respectively) at a flow pressure of 1 bar. The sprinkler bulb is designed to operate at a predetermined temperature. A range of operating temperature ratings is available from between 57 - 182 degrees Centigrade.

Conventional sprinklers
These can be mounted in either the upright or the pendent position and the deflector is designed to spray a proportion of the water discharge on to the surface of the ceilings.
