Tyco 5.8K LFII sprinkler brings improved hydraulic performance and efficiency to residential fire protection

Johnson Controls, the global leader for smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, has launched the new Tyco LFII Residential 5.8K Concealed Pendent Sprinkler for the protection of homes, apartments, dormitories, hotels and other residential buildings. The sprinkler’s increased 5.8 K-factor features improved hydraulic performance compared to other residential models to help more efficiently protect 18x18ft (5.5×5.5m) and 20x20ft (6x6m) rooms. 

The Tyco LFII 5.8K Residential Concealed Pendent Sprinkler is available in both ordinary 155°F (68°C) and intermediate 200°F (93°C) temperature configurations. The sprinkler and cover plate assembly provide a sleek, concealed aesthetic while allowing for adjustment up to 3/4in (19.1mm), which provides additional flexibility for contractors performing the installations.

‘Our team designed the new LFII residential sprinkler around two key attributes that are most important to customers: installation flexibility and performance,’ said Anna Khanova, global vice president, Product Management, Johnson Controls. ‘The value of the flexibility at install reduces labour and material costs. The superior hydraulic performance means this sprinkler is more efficient at suppressing fire hazards in larger sized residential rooms.’

The Tyco LFII Residential 5.8K Concealed Pendent Sprinkler is intended for use in wet-pipe sprinkler systems for one- and two-family dwellings, residential buildings up to four stories in height and residential portions of any occupancy per NFPA 13, 13D and 13R. It features a maximum working pressure of 175psi (12.1 bar).
