Upright and Pendent Sprinklers
Model E, K=5.6, 1/2" NPT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Star Model E, 5.6 K-Factor, Upright and Pendent
Sprinklers are standard response - standard coverage,
solder type spray sprinklers designed for use in occupan-
cies where the ambient temperature necessitates the use
of extra high or very extra high temperature rated sprin-
klers.
Lead coatings are utilized to extend the life of copper al-
loy sprinklers beyond that which would otherwise be ob-
tained when exposed to corrosive atmospheres. Although
lead coated sprinklers have passed the standard corro-
sion tests of the applicable approval agencies, the testing
is not representative of all possible corrosive atmos-
pheres. Consequently, it is recommended that the end
user be consulted with respect to the suitability of these
corrosion resistant coatings for any given corrosive envi-
ronment. The effects of ambient temperature, concentra-
tion of chemicals, and gas/chemical velocity, should be
considered, as a minimum, along with the corrosive na-
ture of the chemical to which the sprinklers will be ex-
posed.
WARNINGS
The Model E Sprinklers described herein must be in-
stalled and maintained in compliance with this document,
as well as with the applicable standards of the National
Fire Protection Association, in addition to the standards
of any other authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to do
so may impair the integrity of these devices.
The owner is responsible for maintaining their fire protec-
tion system and devices in proper operating condition.
The installing contractor or sprinkler manufacturer should
be contacted relative to any questions.
OPERATION
A bronze tube sealed by a steel ball holds a fusible alloy.
The tube is compression loaded and via the tension
mechanism, the cap seals the sprinkler orifice. When the
rated temperature is reached, the alloy melts, the ball is
forced inward, and the tension mechanism releases the
cap, which then allows the sprinkler to activate and flow
water.

Physical Characteristics (Ref. Figure 1)
The Model E utilizes a dezincification resistant (DZR)
bronze frame with a brass deflector. The waterway is
sealed with copper gasket. The fusible assembly is con-
structed of bronze and stainless steel components.
DESIGN CRITERIA
The 5.6 K-Factor, Model E Upright and Pendent Sprin-
klers are intended for fire protection systems designed in
accordance with the standard installation rules recog-
nized by the applicable Listing or Approval agency (e.g.,
UL Listing is based on NFPA 13 requirements). Installa-
tion of Model E Sprinklers in recessed escutcheons will
void all sprinkler warranties, as well as possibly void the
sprinkler’s Approvals and/or Listings.

INSTALLATION
The 5.6 K-Factor, Model E Sprinklers must be installed in
accordance with the following instructions:
NOTES
A leak tight 1/2 inch NPT sprinkler joint should be ob-
tained with a torque of 7 to 14 ft.lbs. (9,5 to 19,0 Nm). A
maximum of 21 ft. lbs. (28,5 Nm) of torque may be used
to install sprinklers with 1/2 NPT connections. Higher lev-
els of torque may distort the sprinkler inlet with conse-
quent leakage or impairment of the sprinkler.
The Model E Pendent and Upright Sprinklers must be in-
stalled in accordance with the following instructions.
1. Pendent sprinklers are to be installed in the pendent
position, and upright sprinklers are to be installed in the
upright position.
2. With pipe thread sealant applied to the pipe threads, hand
tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting.
3. Tighten the sprinkler into the sprinkler fitting using only the
Model E Sprinkler Wrench (Ref. Figure 2). With reference
to Figure 1, the Model E Sprinkler Wrench is to be applied
to the sprinkler wrench flat area.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Model E Sprinklers must be maintained and serviced in
accordance with the following instructions:
NOTE
Before closing a fire protection system main control valve
for maintenance work on the fire protection system which
it controls, permission to shut down the affected fire pro-
tection systems must be obtained from the proper authori-
ties and all personnel who may be affected by this action
must be notified.
Sprinklers which are found to be leaking or exhibiting vis-
ible signs of corrosion must be replaced.
Automatic sprinklers must never be shipped or stored
where their temperature will exceed 100°F/38°C and they
must never be painted, plated, coated, or otherwise al-
tered after leaving the factory.
Care must be exercised to avoid damage to the sprinklers
— before, during, and after installation. Sprinklers dam-
aged by dropping, striking, wrench twist/slippage or the
like, must be replaced.
Frequent visual inspections are recommended to be in-
itially performed for lead coated sprinklers, after the instal-
lation has been completed, to verify the integrity of the
lead coating. Thereafter, annual inspections per NFPA 25
should suffice; however, instead of inspecting from the
floor level, a random sampling of close-up visual inspec-
tions should be made, so as to better determine the exact
sprinkler condition and the long term integrity of the lead
coating, as it may be affected by the corrosive conditions
present.
The owner is responsible for the inspection, testing, and
maintenance of their fire protection system and devices in
compliance with this document, as well as with the appli-
cable standards of the National Fire Protection Associa-
tion (e.g., NFPA 25), in addition to the standards of any
other authorities having jurisdiction. The installing contrac-
tor or sprinkler manufacturer should be contacted relative
to any questions.
It is recommended that automatic sprinkler systems be in-
spected, tested, and maintained by a qualified Inspection
Service.
