GENERAL:

The Viking Model M bulb type sprinklers consist of a brass frame,

copper pip-cap, teflon covered belville spring, and a heat responsive
element. The heat responsive element consists of a glass bulb filled with a
temperature sensitive liquid. Sprinkler frames are color coded in accordance
with the requirements of UL 199 and NFPA 13. In addition the bulb color code
reported under "Ratings" applies.

The Model M intermediate level glass bulb sprinkler may utilize the
Model B-1 sprinkler guard (upright) and the Model C-1 sprinkler guard
(pendent).
