Product Description
Model F1 Res Pendent sprinklers (Figs. 1, 2, 3, & 4) are fast
response sprinklers combining excellent durability, high sensitiv-
ity glass -bulb and low profile decorative design. The F1 Res
Horizontal Sidewall sprinklers (Figs. 5, 6 & 7) are equally attrac-
tive when above ceiling piping cannot be used.
The 3mm glass -bulb pendent sprinklers permit the efficient use
of residential water supplies for sprinkler coverage in residential
fire protection design.
The low flow F1 Res sprinklers are specially engineered for fast
thermal response to meet the sensitive fire protection applica-
tion needs of the latest residential market standards (UL 1626
Standard). Upon fire conditions, rising heat causes a sprinklers
heat -sensitive element, glass bulb or link to actuate, releasing the
waterway for water flow onto the deflector, evenly distributing the
discharged water to control a fire.
Technical Data:
• Thermal Sensor: Soldered Element (Link) or Nominal
3mm glass -bulb
• Sprinkler Frame : Brass Casting
• Sprinklers' Pressure Rating : 175 psi
Factory Hydrostatically Tested to 500 psi
• Thread Size: 1/2" NPT (R1/2)
• K-Factor: 3.0 (Actual) - F1 Res 30 Pendent Sprinkler

Maintenance
Model F1 Res 30, 49, F1 Res 58, F1 Res 76 and F1
Res 44 Sprinklers should be inspected quarterly, and the
sprinkler system maintained in accordance with NFPA
25, 13, 13D, and 13R. Do not clean sprinkler with soap
and water, Ammonia or any other cleaning fluids. Remove
dust by using a soft brush or gentle vacuuming. Remove
any sprinkler which has been painted (other than factory
applied) or damaged in any way. A stock of spare sprin-
klers should be maintained to allow quick replacement
of damaged or operated sprinklers. Prior to installation,
sprinklers should remain in the original cartons and pack-
aging until used. This will minimize the potential for dam-
age to sprinklers that could cause improper operation or
non -operation.

Important Information with Regards to
Your CPVC Fire Sprinkler System
CONGRATULATIONS! This building contains a state-of-the-art FlameGuard® life safety system. Your CPVC fire sprinkler
system will enhance the safety and security of your building when properly cared for. CPVC Fire Sprinkler Products resist
attack from a wide range of chemicals that are corrosive to metallic piping. As with any piping material, there are certain

General Information
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLERS AND USERS:
Plastic piping systems should be ENGINEERED, INSTALLED and OPERATED in accordance with ESTABLISHED DESIGN AND ENGINEERING STANDARDS AND
PROCEDURES for plastic piping systems. Suitability for the intended service application should be determined by the installer and/or user prior to installation of a plastic
piping system. All Installation and maintenance personnel should be trained in the proper handling and installation requirements and precautions of plastic piping systems.
PRIOR TO ASSEMBLY, all piping system components should be inspected for damage or irregularities. Mating components should be checked to assure that
tolerances and engagements are compatible. Do not use any components that appear irregular or do not fit properly. Contact the appropriate manufacturer of
the component product in question to determine usability. Consult all applicable codes and regulations for compliance prior to installation.
Installation must be made in accordance with Spearse Manufacturing Company
FlameGuard® CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products Installation Instructions - FG-3
NOTE— Individual or group instruction in cored solvent welding procedures is available by contacting your local distributor or your servicing Spears° Regional Distribution
Center.
SOLVENT CEMENT CONNECTIONS — Spears® Manufacturing Company recommends the use of Spears® FS-5 One Step solvent cement for joining Spears°
products. Use of solvent cementing products not approved for CPVC fire sprinkler systems, or failure to follow installation instructions will automatically void
the warranty.
THREADED CONNECTION — Spears® Manufacturing Company recommends the use of Spears° BLUE 75- Thread Sealant. This product has been tested by Spears'
and the sealant manufacturer for compatibility with the Spears° CPVC fire sprinkler products. Consult the sprinkler head manufacturer before using this product. WARNING:
OTHER PIPE JOINT COMPOUNDS OR PASTES MAY CONTAIN SUBSTANCES THAT COULD CAUSE STRESS CRACKING IN THE CPVC OR OTHER FITTING
COMPONENTS. Care must be taken to avoid over torquing -generally i to 2 turns beyond finger tight is all that is required to make up a threaded connection. Factory testing
has indicated 10-25 ft. lbs. of torque is adequate to obtain a leak free seal.
GASKET SEALED THREAD CONNECTIONS —This type of connection can only be made with Spears@ TorqueSafeTMA, SofforqueTM or Quick-forqueT" style Gasket Sealed
Female Sprinkler Adapters. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF THREAD SEALANT WHEN INSTALLING THIS TYPE OF ADAPTER. Tape or paste may impair proper sealing
and function. Testing has shown that hand tight until snug for the TorqueSafeTM adapter and finger tight plus 1-turn is all that is needed to seal this special connection.
Sprinkler heads in these specialty fittings can then be additionally tightened clockwise to bring sprinkler frames into desired alignment without stressing the fif5ng. See
speck adapter instructions in package for details.
Gripl-ocTM CONNECTIONS —This type of connection can only be made with Spears@ GdpLocw Couplings or Repair Couplings. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF SOLVENT
CEMENT OR SEALANT WHEN INSTALLING THIS TYPE OF CONNECTION. Uses an internal stainless steel gripper ring with an internal elaslomer gasket seal.
Connection allows immediate system use. See specific instructions in package for details.
Installation Training Available - Contact Spasms Technical Services for Details
FlameGuard& Products must be installed in accordance with Spears° FlameGuard° CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products Installation Instructions, National Fire Protection
Association Standards 13, 13R, 13D, and In accordance with local codes. Code requirements and field conditions may differ. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor
to insure that the product is suitable to meet these requirements.

assembly and curing information referenced within this manual is used.
Installation & Joining
Make sure you follow all assembly and curing information referenced within this
manual when installing Spears® FlameGuard® CPVC Fire Sprinkler Products.
Failure to follow this instruction could cause improper curing, resulting in serious
personal injury, significant property damage, joint leakage, or joint failure.
Before assembling any Spears® FlameGuard° CPVC Fire Sprinkler Products,
you must inspect all components for cuts, scratches, gouges, split ends, or
any other irregularities that have occurred during shipping and handling.
Solvent Cement Welded Joints
Cut Pipe Square.
CPVC pipe can be easily cut with a ratchet cutter,
a wheel -type plastic tubing cutter, a power saw
or a fine toothed saw. Tools used to cut CPVC
must be designed for plastic use and must be
in good condition in accordance with the tool
manufacturer's recommendations. It is important
to cut the pipe square. Asquare cut provides the
surface of the pipe with maximum bonding area.
If any indication of damage or cracking is evident at the pipe end, cut off at
least 2 inches (50 mm) beyond any visible crack.
Notice: Avoid splitting the pipe when using ratchet cutters. Failure to do so
may result in pipe failure or leakage.
• Only use ratchet cutters that contain a sharp blade (blades dull quickly).
• Only use ratchet cutters at temperatures of 50• F If 0° C) or warmer.
• Only use well -maintained, good quality ratchet cutters capable of consistently
cutting the pipe squarely.
Page 22 02013 Spears° Manufacturing Company FG-34010
Deburr & Bevel Pipe
Burrs and filings can prevent proper contact between pipe and fitting during
assembly, and must be removed from the outside and the inside of the pipe.
A chamfering/reaming tool or a file is
suitable for this purpose. A slight bevel
(approximately 10° to 15°) shall be placed
at the end of the pipe to ease entry of the
pipe into the socket. This will minimize
the chance that the edges of the pipe will
wipe solvent cement from the fitting socket
during the insertion of the pipe.
Fitting Preparation
The pipe should enter the filling socket easily one-third to two-thirds of the
way (full interference fit). Contact between the pipe and fitting is essential in
making a good joint. If the pipe bottoms Full Fit
with little interference (net fit), use extra
solvent cement in making the joint �Q t
This contact allows the solvent cement
(which is applied in the next step) to -f 2
effectivelyjoin the pipe and filfing. Net Fit
Using a clean, dry rag, wipe loose dirt and moisture from the fitting socket
and pipe end. Moisture can slow the cure time and at this stage of assembly,
excessive water can reduce joint strength.
Solvent Cement Application
CAUTION: Prior to using Spears° FS-5 One -Step CPVC solvent cement, or
other approved CPVC fire sprinkler cement, review and follow all precautions
found on the container labels, material safely data sheet, and Standard
Practice for Safe Handling ASTM F 402. Failure to follow precautions may
result in injury.
Special rare shall be exercised when assembling CPVC fire sprinkler systems
in temperatures below 40° F (4' C). In colder temperatures extra time must
be allowed for the solvent cement to set and cure. Extra care should be taken
to prevent damaging the pipe during handling. When solvent welding pipe and
fittings in colder temperatures, make certain that the cement has not become
lumpy or has 'gelled". Gelled cement must be discarded.
At temperatures above 80' F (27° C) make sure both surfaces to be joined
are still wet with cement during assembly. Higher temperatures and/or wind
accelerate the evaporation of the volatile solvents in the cement. Pipe stored
in direct sunlight may have surface temperatures 20° F to 30' F above the air
temperature. If possible store the pipe and fittings, or, at least, the ends to be
solvent welded, out of the direct sunlight prior to cementing. The solvents will
penetrate hot surfaces more deeply. In conditions like this it is very important
to avoid puddling the solvent cement inside the fitting socket.
Use a dauber that is property sized for the pipe, no less than 112 the diameter of
the pipe being assembled.
Only use solvent cements that have been specifically formulated and listed/
approved for use with CPVC fire sprinkler systems and approved by the pipe
and fitting manufacturers.
FG-3-1010 O 2013 Spears° Manufacturing Company Page 23
Vigorously apply a heavy, even coat of cement to the outside pipe end. Apply
a medium coal to the fitting socket. Pipe sizes 1-1A inch (DN32, 32mm)
and above shall always receive a second cement application on the pipe
end. FIRST APPLY CEMENT ON THE PIPE END, THEN IN THE FITTING
SOCKET, AND, FINALLY, ON THE PIPE END AGAIN.
'�*� f W4(J/
Notice: Too much solvent cement can cause clogged waterways or weaken
the wall of the pipe or fitting and result in pipe failure or leakage.
• Do not allow excess cement to puddle in the pipe and fitting assembly. To
prevent this puddling, apply a lighter coating of solvent cement to the inside of
the fitting socket than the outside of the pipe.
• Wipe off excess cement on the outside of the joint. The solvents will
evaporate, but the solvent cement inside the fitting will stay there.
• Take care to prevent cement from running into the threads of Sprinkler
Head Adapters and Adjustable Sprinkler Head Adapters. Where possible, it
is recommended to pre -install head adapters on to pre-cut Drops (section of
pipe) and allow to achieve initial set in the inverted position. The head adapter
and drop combination can then be installed into the system fitting.
Assembly
After applying cement, immediately insert the pipe into the fitting socket, while
rotating the pipe one -quarter turn unfit the pipe bottoms out at the fitting stop.
Rotate the pipe as it is inserted into the fitting not after it has bottomed out
in the fitting. Properly align the fitting for the installation at this time. Pipe
must bottom to the stop. Hold the assembly for 30 seconds to ensure initial
bonding. A bead of solvent cement should be evident around the pipe and
fitting juncture. If this bead is not continuous around the socket shoulder, it
may indicate that insufficient cement was applied. If insufficient cement is
applied, the fitting must be cut out and discarded. Cement in excess of the
bead should be wiped off with a rag.

Notice: Failure to allow sprinkler head adapter fitting joints to cure before
installing sprinklers may result in cement in the sprinkler waterway.
• Install sprinkler heads only after all the CPVC pipe and fittings, including
the sprinkler head adapters, are solvent welded and allowed to cure for a
minimum of 30 minutes.
• Do not install sprinklers in the fiWngs prior to the fittings being cemented
in place.
Page 24 02013 Spears® Manufacturing Company FG-3-1010
- Prior to installing any sprinklers, the entire system including drops must
be thoroughly flushed to remove all pipe shavings, dirt and debris left from
installation. Fill lines slowly and bleed air from the farthest and highest point,
then flush with full flow.
Exercise care when installing sprinklers. Allow sprinkler head fittings and
previoustyjoined fittings to cure for a minimum of 30 minutes prior to installing
the sprinkler. When installing sprinklers, be sure to anchor or hold the pipe
drop securely to avoid rotating the pipe in previously cemented connections.
Notice: Too much solvent cement can cause clogged waterways.
• Usually inspect sprinkler fittings to ensure that the waterway and threads are
clear of any excess cement.
- Once the installation is complete and cured per Table I,11 or III, then test the
system as described in the System Acceptance Testing (Hydrostatic Pressure
Test) section of this manual.
Set and Cure Times
Notice: Inadequate curing of solvent cement joints may cause pipe failure
or leakage. Solvent cement set and cure times are a function of pipe size,
temperature, relative humidity, and tightness of fit.
Cure times should be increased when moisture is present such as during cut -
ins to live sprinkler lines. (NOTE: refer to Recommended Cut -In Procedures
for System Modification or Repair section in this manual.) The assembly must
be allowed to set, without any stress on the joint, for 5 minutes, depending on
pipe size and temperature. Following the initial set period, the assembly can
be handled carefully, avoiding significant stresses to the joint
Refer to Tables I, II, and III for MINIMUM cure times prior to pressure testing.

Flanged Connections
Piping runs joined to the Flanges must be installed in a straight line in relation
to the flange to avoid stress at the flange due to misalignment. In addition,
piping must be secured and supported to prevent lateral movement, which
can create stress and damage the flange. Use only full-faced, Grade E,
EPDM,1/8' thick flange gaskets.
RILIM Attach Flange to Pipe.
The flange must be attached to UL Listed CPVC pipe following procedures for
Solvent Cement Welded Joints in this manual.
NOTICE: When using 'One -Piece" type flanges (fixed flange ring), care
must be taken to align bolt holes with mating flange during solvent welding
installation to pipe, or assure that pipe in system can be adequately rotated
for correct hole alignment.
E11fya Position Gasket & Align Flanges.
With gasket between flanges, align gasket and mating flange bolt holes by
rotating flange ring (see notice above).
Install Bolts, Nuts, & Washers.
Bolts should be lubricated with an acceptable anti -seize lubricant (such as IMS
Copper Flake). Insert required bolts through flange bolt holes being sure to
use two (2) flat washers per bolt, one at head and one below nut. Make sure
that mating flanges are flush against gasket and property aligned. Tighten
nuts by hand until snug.
WARNING: Certain lubricants can cause stress cracking in CPVC
materials.
lIIIUL-■ Tighten Flange Bolts.
Establish uniform pressure over the flange face by lightening bolts in
5-fit. lbs. increments using the sequence shown in Figure 1 and specified
torque values.

use with Victaulic Style 75 and Style 77 Flexible Couplings. Other UL Listed
couplings of similar flexible design maybe used.
CAUTION: The use of rigid style couplings will damage the Grooved Coupling
Adapter. Consult coupling manufacturer for proper selection.
Inspect Pipe & Adapter.
Check to ensure that both pipe and Grooved Coupling Adapter are free of
indentations, projections, or roll marks on the gasket seating areas. Pipe end
must be cut square and any loose scale, paint or dirt removed.
FG-3-1010 0 2013 Spears® Manufacturing Company Page 31
NOTICE: Use a -standard grade'E' (EPDM) compound gasket with a green
stripe or a grade'E; type 'A' gasket with a purple stripe that Is suitable for
wet fire sprinkler service.
Inspect & Lubricate Gasket
Be sure the gasket is clean and free of any cracks, cuts, or other defects that
could cause leaks. DO NOTall0wsolventcementto contactthe sealing surface
of the gasket. Lubricate the gasket with a vegetable soap -base lubricant to
prevent pinching and to assist in the seating and alignment process. Apply a
thin layer of lubricant to the gasket lips and exterior surface. Pre -lubricated
gaskets may be used. It is the installer's responsibility to determine both the
gasket suitability and chemical compatibility of any lubricants. Consultgasket
and lubricant manufacturers.
WARNING: Certain lubricants may contain petroleum based or other
chemical that can damage the gasket or adapter. Verify the suitability of
the lubricant with the manufacturer before use.
Align Components & Install Gasket
Place the gasket over the pipe end making sure the gasket lip does not
overhang the end of the pipe. Align the grooved coupling adapter with the
end of the pipe and slide the gasket over the seating surface of the adapter,
centering the gasket between the two grooves. Make sure the gasket is not
pinched between the pipe and the adapter filing. No portion of the gasket
should extend into the grooves.
Install Coupling
Place the coupling housings over the gasket, making sure the housing keys
engage into the grooves of the pipe and the adapter fitting. Insert the bolts
and apply the nuts finger -tight Using a socket wrench or other appropriate
tool, lighten the nuts alternately and equally until you achieve metal -to -metal
contact at the housings' bolt pads.
WARNING: You must tighten the bolts alternately and evenly to achieve
metal -to -metal contact at the housings' bolt pads.
Inspect thejoints before and after pressure testing. Look for gaps between the
bolt pads and for housing keys that are not inside the grooves. Ensure that the
pipe alignment does not place undue stress on the grooved coupling adapters.
The maximum recommended pipe hanger distance from the grooved coupling
adapter fitting is shown in the following table.

As an added precaution to enhance the structural design of the system, it is
suggested that a hanger or support be located at or near the grooved coupling
adapter joint This hanger or support can be on either side of the coupling.
However, this is not a requirement, since the hanger spacing shown in the
above table meets the minimum requirements established by UL.
Adjustable Sprinkler Head Adapter Installation
Spears® FlameGuarde CPVC Adjustable Fire Sprinkler Head Adapter comes
pre -assembled. There is no need for lubrication. It is recommended that the
adjustable sprinkler head adapter be adjusted completely "in' by hand before
beginning the installation process.
Install Adapter on Drop.
The Adjustable Sprinkler Head Adapter must be installed in accordance with
the approved procedures for Solvent Cement Welded Joints, as outlined in
this manual. It is recommended that the drop/riser pipe be solvent cemented
into the adjustable sprinkler head adapter first, and then into the drop/riser
tee or elbow.
CAUTION: Care must be taken to prevent solvent cement from coming in
contact with the internal 0-ring seal or sealing surface. All pipe shavings, dirt
and debris must be flushed from the drop prior to adjustment. DO NOT over
extend the adjustment barrel. Extend only to the point that free movement
slops or damage to internal sealing components may result.
Install Sprinkler Head
Sprinklerhead installation must be in accordance with the approved procedures
for Threaded Connections, as outlined in this manual. The Adjustable Sprinkler
Head Adapter has multiple wrench flats provided to hold the adjustment barrel
while installing the sprinkler head. These same wrench flats must be used to
adjust the sprinkler head adapter to its required position.
CAUTION: Never use wrenches, pliers, or any other tool on the threaded
portion of the adjustment barrel. DO NOT over extend the adjustment barrel.
FG-3-1010 ® 2013 Spears® Manufacturing Company Page 33
Adjust Finished Height.
The maximum range of travel is 1-5/8". Always use multiple wrench flats for
making adjustments. Make adjustments slowly if system is pressurized in
order to avoid Inadvertently over extending adjustment barrel.
CAUTION: Cam must be taken not to extend or retract the adjustment barrel
excessively, since this may result in damage to the adapter. Adjust only to the
point that free movement stops.
For the purpose of hydraulic calculations, the adjustable sprinkler head
equivalent length of pipe in feet are as follows: 3/4'x1/2' = 64,1'xl/2' = 9-ft.
Flushing System
Prior to installing any sprinklers and testing, the entire system including drops
must be thoroughly flushed to remove all pipe shavings, dirt and debris left
from installation. Fill lines slowly and bleed air from the farthest and highest
point, then flush with full flow.
System Acceptance Testing (Hydrostatic Pressure Test)
Once an installation is completed and joints are properly cured per the above
recommendations, the system should be hydrostatically pressure tested with
water at 200 psi (13.8 bar) for 2 hours. See Table II for curing conditions at
200 psi (13.8 bar).
The system should be pressure tested with water at 50 psi (3.4 bar) In
excess of maximum pressure when the maximum system pressure is to be
maintained in excess of 150 psi (10.3 bar). See Table I for curing conditions
at 225 psi (15.5 bar). This requirement is in accordance with the requirements
established by NFPA Standard 13, Section 24.2.1 (2007 Edition).
Sprinkler systems in one- and two-family dwellings and mobile homes may
be pressure tested with water at line pressure, after following Table III curing
conditions, in accordance with the requirements established by NFPA 13D,
Section 4.3 (2007 Edition).
Prior to testing, be sure that the entire system including drops has been
thoroughly flushed to remove all pipe shavings, did and debris left from
installation as specified in the preceding section.
When pressure testing, the sprinkler system shall be slowly filled with water
and the air bled from the highest and farthest sprinkler heads before pressure
testing is applied. Air must be removed frompiping systems (plastic or metal)
to prevent it from being locked in the system when pressure is applied.
Entrapped air can generate excessive surge pressures that can result in bodily
injury and/or property damage, regardless of the piping materials used.
If a leak is found, the fitting must be cut out and discarded. A new section can
be installed using couplings or a union. Unions should be used in accessible
areas only.

Becommanded Cm -in Procedures for System Modification or Repair
Existing system modifications or repairs can be made using Spears®
FlameGuard® CPVC Fire Sprinkler Products. In order to maintain full system
integrity the following procedure must be followed when making a system
tie-in or repair by cutting into an existing system line. A careful review of all
Joining Procedures must be made prior to making a cut -in on an existing
system and the Minimum Cut -in Cure Times schedule listed below must be
followed. Avariety of fitting combinations can be used to tie into an existing
system or replace a section between fixed cut -in points. These include using
a socket Tee for add-ons or a socket Coupling for repairs in combination
with a mechanical joint such as a union grooved coupling adapter, or flange.
Regardless of the components selected, the following must be adhered to:
System modification cut -ins should be made on the smallest diameter pipe
section, in close proximity to the area of modification, capable of properly
supplying the system change.
Carefully plan and measure prior to cutting into existing system. Be sure to
provide adequate space and insure that full insertion into fitting sockets can
be made during assembly.
Note: Allowance must be made for making a 1/4-turn twist when inserting the
pipe into the fitting during assembly of the tee (or other component), especially
on 1-1/2' and larger pipe sizes. This may require assembly of components in
combination with the cut -In tee to create a short spool piece for final connection
using socket unions, flanges, or grooved coupling adapters.
Review all Installation & Joining procedures prior to commencing cut -in
(including square cutting, deburring & beveling, cleaning, dry fit checks).
Depressurize and drain existing line prior to making the cut -in.
Connect to the existing system prior to proceeding with the modification or
repair.
All pipe shavings, dirt, debris must be removed from the cut -in system and,
water and residual moisture must be removed from all solvent cement areas.
Vacuum lines and wipe dry with a clean dry rag. Moisture and dirt will slow the
curing and can affectjoint strength.
Use only a new can of approved solvent cement when making cut -in
connections. Verity cement expiration date on can prior to use.
Cut -ins for modifications or system repairs are often made under less than
ideal situations as compared to new installations. As a result, the following
specified Minimum Cut -in Cure times must be used.

in all saes. For the 2-1/2' & larger, the temperature must be raised to 40° F
(4° C) or above and allowed to cure for the recommended times before the
system is filled and pressurized. Cement, pipe or fittings brought in from colder
outside temperatures must be brought up to room temperature before using
the 60° F to 120° F cure schedule.
Following completion and proper cure, inspect for proper alignment and
hanger placement prior to pressure testing.
To pressure test the system, slowly fill the system with water and make sure
that all air is bled from the farthest and highest point before test pressure is
applied. The system MUST be pressure tested in accordance with NFPA 13,
NFPA 24, or any other applicable NFPA standard requirements. The system
must be tested with water. The purpose of the hydrostatic pressure test is
to check for leakage, and it may not identify improperly assembled joints.
This test MUST NOT be considered a substitute for full compliance to these
published installation instructions.
It is recommended that the portion of the sprinkler system containing the cut -
in tee be isolated for pressure test where possible. The applied test pressure
should not exceed 50 psi over the system pressure in order to minimize water
damage in the event that a leak occurs.
WARNING: Spears' FlameGuard• CPVC Fire Sprinkler Products must
never be used in a system for distribution of compressed air or other
gases. Air must be removed from piping systems. Entrapped air can
generate excessive surge pressures, regardless of the piping materials
used. Failure to follow this warning could result in product failure,

Hangers & Suppolls
Since CPVC Fire Sprinkler pipe is rigid, it requires fewersupports than flexible,
plastic systems. Spears° recommends use of hangers that are designed and
listed for supporting the CPVC Fire Sprinkler pipe. However, some hangers
designed for steel pipe may be used if their suitability is clearly established.
These hangers must have a minimum 1/2-inch, load -bearing surface, and
they must be selected to accommodate the specific pipe size. In addition,
they cannot contain rough orsharp edges that contact the pipe, and they must
not bind the pipe from axial movement Vertical runs must be supported so
that the weight of the run is not on a fitting or a joint.
Horizontal runs must be braced so that the stress loads (caused by bending
or snaking pipe) will not be placed on a fitting or a joint. Support spacing is
shown in the following table. See "Snaking/Defiection of Pipe" in this manual
for information regarding bending or snaking CPVC Fire Sprinkler Pipe.

NFPA 13D permits 'support methods comparable to those required by local
plumbing codes.' The above hanger/support requirements must also be
followed on NFPA 13D systems.
CAUTION: DO NOT use hanger items such as plumber's tape or 'nail -on'
devices. Pipe hanger must comply with NFPA 13,13D and 13R.
When a sprinkler head activates, a significant reactive force can be exerted
on the pipe. With a pendent head, this reactive force can cause the pipe to
lit vertically if it is not secured properly, especially if the sprinkler drop is from
small diameter pipe. The pipe must be braced against the vertical lip -up with
the closest hanger. Refer to the following illustration and Table & B.

Numerous common methods are used to brace Fire Sprinkler Pipe. A few
acceptable methods include: use of a standard band hanger by positioning
the threaded support rod to 1116-inch above the pipe (however, it is important
that the rod does not contact the pipe), a wrap around U-hanger, a special
escutcheon which prevents upward movement of the sprinkler through the
ceiling or band hangers with Surge Restraints to provide surge protection for
the system.
Pipe hangers are available that are tested and UL Listed for fire sprinkler
service. These hangers comply with NFPA 13 requirements for use with
CPVC fire sprinkler piping systems. The following illustrations depict several
of these.
Band Hanger - designed to support CPVC piping systems when used in
conjunction with a hanging steel threaded rod that is suspended from a ceiling
or other flat, horizontal surface. The threaded rod must be leveled property
before installing the hanger and restraint.
Surge Restraint - when installed with the Band Hanger, as shown below,
provides surge protection for the system.
One Hole Wrap -Around Strap - designed to support CPVC piping systems
only when the hanger tab is in the vertical position, and the screw -type
fastener is in the horizontal position. The one -hole strap can be used as a pipe
restrainer when the hanger tab is in the downward position, but it cannot be
used as a hanger to hold any weight of the system. In addition, the one -hole
strap can be used as a piping system guide when the system lies on lop of the
beam, and the beam supports the system's weight. The one -hole strap is not
intended to support the CPVC piping system from under a ceiling or any other
flat, horizontal surface. For this application, install two -hole strap.

Two -Hole Strap -designed to support CPVC piping systems when attached to
a flat, horizontal surface with the screw -type fasteners in the vertical position.
In addition, the two -hole strap is designed to support CPVC piping systems
when attached to a flat, vertical surface with one mounting tab in the vertical
position and the screw -type fasteners in the horizontal position. The two -hole
strap can be used as a piping system guide when the system lies on top of a
beam, and the beam supports the system's weight.
Two -Hole 90° Side Mount Strap - designed to support CPVC piping systems
when attached to a horizontal beam with the screw -type fasteners in the
horizontal position and the pipe hanging below the beam. The fastener's
mounting edges are designed to allow the screws to be installed horizontally.
This is a benefit when overhead clearance is limited. In addition, the 90° side
mount strap can be used in a restrainer fashion when it is attached to the top
of a beam, and the system lies on top of the beam.
Riser Supports
Risers must be supported by pipe clamps or by hangers located on the
horizontal connection close to the riser. Only Listed hangers and clamps
can be used. Vertical lines must be supported at intervals to avoid placing
excessive load on a fitting at the lower end. This can be done by using riser
clamps or double -bolt pipe clamps listed for this service.
Hangers and supports must not compress, distort, cut, or abrade the piping,
and they must allow free movement of the pipe for thermal expansion and
contraction. DO NOT use riser clamps that squeeze the pipe and depend on
compression of the pipe to support the weight.
Maintain vertical piping in straight alignmentwith supports at each floor level or
10-foot intervals, whichever is less. CPVC risers in vertical shafts or buildings
with ceilings over 25 feet must be aligned straight and supported at each floor
level or 10-fool intervals, whichever is less.
FG-3-1010 0 2013 Spears® Manufacturing Company Page 41
Clamps must not exert compressive stresses on the pipe. It possible, the
clamps should be located directly below a coupling so that the shoulder of the
coupling rests against the clamp. A coupling can be modified to achieve this
by cutting a CPVC coupling just above the stop at the socket bottom. Then,
cut this piece in half lengthwise to provide two halves that do not contain the
stop. Follow the 'Solvent Cement Welding Instructions' to cement the two
halves to the pipe at the required location, and make sure that the shoulder of
the modified coupling rests on the clamp. Allow the assembly to cure before
placing any stress on the joint
WARNING: CPVC pipe andlor system components must not be used to
provide structural support for the system. Care should be used when
installing, hanging, or bracing to prevent unnecessary stress loads on
the CPVC piping system.
Eltposed Installations
For exposed installations that incorporate pendent or sidewall sprinklers,
UL Listed support devices for thermoplastic sprinkler piping, or other listed
support devices shall be used to mount the piping directly to the ceiling or
sidewall.
Earthquake Bracing
Since CPVC fire sprinkler plastic piping is more ductile than metallic sprinkler
pipe, it has a greater capacity to withstand earthquake damage. In areas
subject to earthquakes, CPVC fire sprinklersystems should be designed and
braced in accordance with local codes and NFPA Standard 13.
Trenching
The trench for underground fire service applications should be of adequate
width to allow convenient installation, while at the same time being as narrow
as possible. Minimum trench widths may be utilized by joining pipe outside
of the trench and lowering it into the trench after adequate joint strength has
been achieved.
CAUTION - Refer to the set and cure times listed in this manual for solvent
cement joints. Failure to follow these cure times before installing piping
systems in trenches could result in joint separation. Trench widths have to
be wider where pipe is joined in the trench or where thermal expansion and
contraction is a factor. Refer to the 'Snaking/Deflection of Pipe" section.

• Water filled pipe should be buried at least 12 inches below the maximum
expected frost line.
• It is recommended thatthermoplastic piping be run within a metal or concrete
casing when it is installed beneath surfaces that are subject to heavy weight
or constant traffic, such as roadways and railroad tracks.
The trench bottom should be continuous, relatively smooth, and free of rocks.
Where ledge rock, hardpan, or boulders are encountered, it is necessary to
pad the trench bottom using a minimum of four inches of tamped earth or sand
beneath the pipe as a cushion and for protection of the pipe from damage.
Sufficient cover must be maintained to keep external stress levels below
acceptable design stress. Reliability and safely of service is of major
importance in determining minimum cover. Local, state, and national codes
may also apply.
Snaking/Deflection of Pipe
NOTICE -
• After CPVC pipe has been solvent cemented, snake the pipe, according
to the following recommendations, beside the trench during its required
drying time.
• Be especially careful not to apply any stress thatwill disturb the undded joint
• Snaking is necessaryto allow for any anticipated thermal contraction thalwill
take place in the newlyjoined pipeline.
Snaking is particularly necessary on the lengths that have been solvent
cemented during the late afternoon or a hot summer's day because their
drying time will extend through the cool of the night when thermal contraction
of the pipe could stress the joints to the point of pull out. This snaking is
especially necessary with pipe that is laid in its trench (necessitating wider
trenches than recommended) and is back -filled with cool earth before the
joints are thoroughly dry. The following information can be used in determining
maximum deflection allowable for various run lengths and pipe sizes.

BACBFILLING
CAUTION - Underground pipe must be thoroughly inspected and tested for
leaks prior to backfilling (refer to section on hydrostatic pressure testing).
Failure to follow this instruction could result in system failure.
During periods of hot weather, backfilling should only be done early in the
morning when the line is fullyoontracted, and there is nochanceof insufficien8y
dried joints being subjected to contraction stresses.
The pipe should be uniformly and continuously supported over its entire length
on a firm, stable material. Blocking should not be used to change pipe grade
or to intermittently support pipe across excavated sections.
Pipe is installed in a wide range of subsoils. These soils must be stable and
applied in such a manner to physically shield the pipe from damage. Attention
should be given to local pipe laying experience, which may indicate particular
pipe bedding problems.
Backfill materials that are free of rocks with a particle size of 1/2-inch or less
should be used to surround the pipe with 6 to 8 inches of cover. It should
be placed in layers. Each soil layer should be sufficiently compacted to
uniformly develop lateral passive soil forces during the backfill operation.
It may be advisable to have the pipe under pressure,15 to 25 psi, during
the backfilling.
Vibratory methods are preferred when compacting sand or gravels. Best
results are obtained when the soils are In a nearly saturated condition.
Where water -flooding is used, the initial backfill should be sufficient to ensure
complete coverage of the pipe. Additional material should not be added unfit
the water flooded backfill is firm enough to walk on. Care should be taken to
avoid Floating the pipe.
Sand and gravel containing a significant proportion of fine-grained material,
such as silt and clay should be compacted by hand or, preferably, by
mechanical tamper.
The remainderof the backfill should be spread in uniform layersto fill the trench
completely so that there will be no unfilled spaces around rocks or lumps of
earth In the backfill. Large or sharp rocks, frozen clods, and other debris,
greater than 3 inches in diameter, should be removed. Rolling equipment or
heavy tampers should be used only to consolidate the final backfill.
Maintenanceshall be in accordancewith the Standard for Inspection, Testing and
Maintenance of Water Based Extinguishing Systems, as defined by NFPA25.

Information found in a report from the National Toxicology Program (NTP)
on an Inhalation study in rats and mice suggests that Tetrahydrofuran (THF)
can cause tumors in animals. In the study the rats and mice were exposed to
THF vapor levels up to 1800 PPM for two years (their lifetime), 6 hours/day, 5
days/week. Test results showed evidence of liver tumors in female mice and
kidney tumors in male rats. No evidence of tumors was seen in female rats
and male mice. There is no data linking Tetrahydrofuran exposure with cancer
in humans.

General Information
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLERS AND USERS:
Plastic piping systems should be ENGINEERED, INSTALLED and OPERATED in accordance with ESTABLISHED DESIGN AND ENGINEERING STANDARDS AND
PROCEDURES for plastic piping systems. Suitability for the intended service application should be determined by the installer and/or user prior to installation of a plastic
piping system. All Installation and maintenance personnel should be trained in the proper handling and installation requirements and precautions of plastic piping systems.
PRIOR TO ASSEMBLY, all piping system components should be inspected for damage or irregularities. Mating components should be checked to assure that
tolerances and engagements are compatible. Do not use any components that appear irregular or do not fit properly. Contact the appropriate manufacturer of
the component product in question to determine usability. Consult all applicable codes and regulations for compliance prior to installation.
Installation must be made in accordance with Spearse Manufacturing Company
FlameGuard® CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products Installation Instructions - FG-3
NOTE — Individual or group Instruction in correct solvent welding procedures is available by contacting your local distributor or your servicing Spears® Regional Distribution
Center.
SOLVENT CEMENT CONNECTIONS — Spears° Manufacturing Company recommends the use of Spearse FS5 One Step solvent cement for joining Spears®
products. Use of solvent cementing products not approved for CPVC fire spdnkler systems, or failure to follow installation instructions will automatically void
the warranty.
THREADED CONNECTION —Spears® Manufacturing Company recommends the use of Spears® BLUE 751e Thread Sealant. This product has been tested by Spears°
and the sealant manufacturer for compatibility with the Spears' CPVC fire sprinkler products. Consult the sprinkler head manufacturer before using this product. WARNING:
OTHER PIPE JOINT COMPOUNDS OR PASTES MAY CONTAIN SUBSTANCES THAT COULD CAUSE STRESS CRACKING IN THE CPVC OR OTHER FITTING
COMPONENTS. Care must betaken to avoid over torquing -generally 1 to 2 tums beyond finger fight is all that is required to make up a threaded connection. Factorytesting
has indicated 10-25 IL lbs. of torque is adequate to obtain a leak free seal.
GASKET SEALED THREAD CONNECTIONS —This type of connection can only be made with Spears® TorqueSaf0, Sofrorqu0 or QuickTorqueTM style Gasket Sealed
Female Sprinkler Adapters. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF THREAD SEALANT WHEN INSTALLING THIS TYPE OF ADAPTER. Tape or paste may impair proper sealing
and function. Testing has shown that hand fight until snug for the TorqueSafsT" adapter and finger tight plus 14um is all that is needed to seal this special connection.
Sprinkler heads in these specialty fittings can then be additionally tightened clockwise to bring spdnkler frames into desired alignment without stressing the fdling. See
specific adapter instructions in package for details.
GripLocTM CONNECTIONS— This type of connection can only be made with Spears@GdpLocTM Couplings or Repair Couplings, DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF SOLVENT
CEMENT OR SEALANT WHEN INSTALLING THIS TYPE OF CONNECTION. Uses an internal stainless steel gripper ring with an internal elastomer gasket seal.
Connection allows immediate system use. See specific instructions in package for details.
Installation Training Available - Contact Spearse Technical Services for Details
FlameGuard® Products must be installed in accordance with Spearse FlameGuard® CPVC Fire Sprinkler Piping Products Installation Instructions, National Fire Protection
Association Standards 13, 13R, 13D, and in accordance with local codes. Code requirements and field conditions may differ. It is the responsibility of the Installing contractor
to insure that the product is suitable to meet these requirements.
