Residential horizontal sidewall sprinkler

Viking Corporation has introduced a new residential, 4.2 (57) K-factor, horizontal sidewall sprinkler. The new model VK484 further enhances Viking's leading Freedom residential line with another sidewall sprinkler option offering low water flow and pressure characteristics for both flat and sloped ceiling applications. The VK484 sprinkler is cULus listed for up to .9 x 6.1 m coverage areas and can be installed with the deflector up to 305 mm below the ceiling. In sloped ceiling applications, the VK484 is listed for ceilings with up to a 18° pitch, with the sprinkler installed to discharge across the slope. Additionally, for 16 x 20 ft room sizes, the new sprinkler provides a listed flow rate of 83 lpm for flat ceilings, which is the lowest among competitive sidewall sprinklers for this area of coverage.

The VK484 is available in 68°C and 79°C temperature ratings. The complete Freedom residential line, including the new VK484, is available immediately through the company's integrated Viking SupplyNet distribution network, as well as certain authorized independent distributors.
