Model G
Automatic Sprinklers
Spray Upright,
Spray Pendent
And Conventional
Product Description
The Reliable Model G Automatic Sprinkler utilizes the
center strut solder in compression principle of construc-
tion. The fusible alloy is captured in the cylinder of the
solder capsule by a stainless steel ball. When the fusible
alloy melts, the ball moves into the cylinder allowing the
cylinder to fall away from the sprinkler. When this happens,
the lever is released to spring free from the sprinkler so
that all of the operating parts clear from the waterway al-
lowing the deflector to distribute the discharging water.
Except for the parts in the cylinder as mentioned above,
the sprinkler components are made from copper based
alloys for maximum corrosion protection. Lead plated, wax
coated or wax over lead plated sprinklers are available for
specially severe environments. Chrome plated sprinklers
are available for decorative purposes.
All sprinklers are individually hydrostatically tested. All
sprinklers are identified as to their fusing point by mark-
ings that appear on several of the operating parts and by
an identifying color that appears on the frame.
Sprinkler Types
Standard Upright – This deflector configuration is normal-
ly used with exposed piping installations. Water is distrib-
uted laterally and downward in a wide pattern approximat-
ing a hemisphere which is completely and uniformly filled
with water in the form of small drops or spray.
Standard Pendent – This deflector configuration is nor-
mally used where the space above the piping is limited
or where a concealed piping installation is employed. The
discharge characteristics of the standard pendent are
virtually identical to the standard upright as described
above.
Large and Small Orifi ce —By varying the orifice size, a
large or small orifice sprinkler is created that will distrib-
ute as much as 40% more water or 65% less water than
the normal ½” (15mm) orifice sprinkler.
Conventional —This deflector configuration is used pri-
marily in those countries where the LPC installation rules
have precedence. The sprinkler is designed to distribute
a portion of its water discharge upward against the ceil-
ing with the balance downward. It may be installed in
either the upright or the pendent position. Sprinklers with
conventional deflectors are available with orifice sizes
corresponding to light, ordinary and extra–high hazard
installations.
Upright Pendent
Application and Installation
Standard sprinklers are used in fixed fire protection sys-
tems: Wet, Dry, Deluge or Preaction. Care must be exer-
cised that the orifice sizes, temperature ratings, deflector
styles and sprinkler spacings are in accordance with the
latest published standards of the National Fire Protection
Association or the approving authority having jurisdiction.
The sprinklers must be installed with the Reliable Model
D Sprinkler Wrench. Any other type of wrench may dam-
age the sprinkler.

klers by major approving organizations are shown in the
tabulated list provided on the back of this bulletin.

sprinklers with soap and water, ammonia or any other clean-
ing fluids. Remove any sprinkler that has been painted (other
than factory applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare
sprinklers should be maintained to allow quick replacement of
damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installation, sprinklers
should be maintained in the original cartons and packaging un-
til used to minimize the potential for damage to sprinklers that
would cause improper operation or non-operation. Use only the
Model D Sprinkler Wrench for sprinkler removal and installation.
Any other type of wrench may damage the sprinkler.
