NOTES:
a. The maximum allowable area coverage includes any area within the radius distance from the nozzle ("R" dimension)
to the most extreme wall or corner.
b. Nozzles should be located on center line of hazard area.
c. When working with ceiling heights exceeding the values tabulated above, the hazard volume must be
broken down into vertically stacked hazard volumes, with heights less than the maximums shown in the
table.
It is imperative that unusual applications of this nature be handled by experienced design engineers
and, in most cases, operational tests should be performed before the system is put into service.
d. Dimensions and nozzle data shown are taken from the FM approved Design, Installation & Maintenance
Manual - P/N 06-210.
e. 180 and 360 degree nozzles may be placed a maximum of 1 foot (305mm) down from the ceiling, and 180 degree
nozzles may be placed a maximum of 1 foot (305mm) from the wall.
