NOTE:
Drain the system and drill a hole in the pipe using a hole saw in a slow speed drill (see Fig. 1). Clean the inside pipe of all growth or other
material for a distance equal to the pipe diameter on either side of the hole. Roll the vane so that it may be inserted into the hole; do not bend
(see the chart in Fig. 1). The vane must not rub the inside of the pipe or bind in any way.
Do not trim the paddle. Failure to follow these instructions may prevent the device from operating and will void the warranty. Do not obstruct or otherwise

1. DESCRIPTION
Viking Mirage® Standard and Quick Response Concealed Pendent Sprinkler VK462
and HP Sprinkler VK463 are thermosensitive glass-bulb spray sprinklers designed for
installation on concealed pipe systems where the appearance of a smooth ceiling is
desired.
The sprinkler is pre-assembled with a threaded adapter for installation with a low-
profile cover assembly that provides up to ½” (12.7 mm) of vertical adjustment. The
two-piece design allows installation and testing of the sprinkler prior to installation of
the cover plate. The “push-on”, “thread-off” design of the concealed cover plate assem-
bly allows easy installation of the cover plate after the system has been tested and the
ceiling finish has been applied. The cover assembly can be removed and reinstalled,
allowing temporary removal of ceiling panels without taking the sprinkler system out of
service or removing the sprinkler. The Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coating has been
investigated for installation in corrosive environments and is cULus Listed as indicated
in the Approval Charts. The ENT finish is only available for the sprinkler assembly, the
cover plate is not plated.

Base Part No. VK462 - 13503A for Brass finish and 13503JN for ENT finish. VK463 - HP Base Part No. 13667A
Specify sprinkler temperature rating by adding the appropriate suffix for the temperature rating to the base part number:
Temperature Suffix: 155 °F (68 °C) = B, 175 °F (79 °C) = D, 200 °F (93 °C) = E
For example, sprinkler VK463 with a 155 °F (68 °C) temperature rating = 13667AB.
Base Part No. 13504 (2-3/4” diameter), Base Part No. 13642 (3-5/16“ diameter), or Base Part
No. 15394 (square cover plate, 3-5/16”)
Specify finish and temperature rating of the cover plate assembly by adding the appropriate suffixes for the finish and the cover
temperature rating to the base part number:
Finish Suffix: Polished Chrome = F, Brushed Chrome = F-/B, Bright Brass = B, Antique Brass = B-/A, Brushed Brass = B-/B,
Brushed Copper = E-/B, Painted White = M-/W, Painted Ivory = M-/I, Painted Black = M-/B
Temperature Suffix: 135 °F (57 °C) UL (139 °F (59 °C) FM and LPCB) = A, 165 °F (74 °C) = C

Part No. 01731A (available since 1971)

5. OPERATION
During fire conditions, when the temperature around the sprinkler approaches its operating temperature, the cover plate detaches.
Continued heating of the exposed sprinkler causes the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb to expand and the bulb to shatter,
releasing the yoke, pip-cap and sealing spring assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the sprinkler deflector,
forming a uniform spray pattern to extinguish or control the fire.
Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements.

The criterion for the dropping of the cover relevant for this approval is heat.
Steps of installation:
1. Prepare the sprinkler key.
2. Remove the plastic cover.
3. Hold the sprinkler with the wrench and fasten it.

1. DESCRIPTION
The Viking Microfast® Standard/Quick Response Extended Coverage Horizontal
Sidewall Sprinkler VK605 is thermosensitive spray sprinklers available in several dif-
ferent finishes and temperature ratings to meet varying design requirements. The ori-
fice design allows efficient use of available water supplies for hydraulically designed
fire-protection systems. The glass bulb operating element and special deflector
characteristics meet the challenges of quick response extended coverage standards.
The special Polyester and Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coatings can be used in
decorative applications where colors are desired. In addition, the Electroless Nickel
PTFE (ENT) coating has been investigated for installation in corrosive environments
and is listed/approved as indicated in the Approval Chart(s).

Refer to the Approval Chart and Design Criteria for cULus Listing requirements that
must be followed. !

5. OPERATION
During fire conditions, the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb expands, causing the bulb to shatter, releasing the pip cap and
sealing spring assembly. Water flowing through the sprinkler orifice strikes the sprinkler deflector, forming a uniform spray pattern
to extinguish or control the fire.
6. INSPECTIONS, TESTS AND MAINTENANCE
Refer to NFPA 25 for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance require-
ments.

installations, the spray must be directed down the slope. Spray may NOT be directed across the slope. Refer to Figure 6.
• Listed area of coverage for sloped ceilings corresponds to ceiling slope. (For sloped ceiling applications, actual floor coverage will be less than
the listed area.)
• Refer to the Approval Chart for required deflector distance below the ceiling. Install with the leading edge of the deflector oriented parallel to the
ceiling (see Figure 4).
• Minimum distance from end walls is 4 in. (102 mm).
• Maximum distance from the end wall shall be no more than one-half of the allowable distance between sprinklers. The distance shall be measured
perpendicular to the wall.
• The sprinkler installation and obstruction rules contained in NFPA 13 for extended coverage sidewall spray sprinklers must be followed.

Determining the proper outlet pressure A155 - A156 1 1/2” SETTING: 1-6
1- The valves are reducing the downstream water pressure under flowing
(residual) condition only. 150
The valve should not be set to provide less than the minimum pressure
Flow [gpm]
required by NFPA 14 while flowing 250 GPM for 2 1/2” size and 100 GPM for 130
1 1/2” size.
NFPA 14 requires that Standpipe systems shall be hydraulically designed to 110
provide the required water flow rate at a minimum residual pressure of 100
90 set-06
PSI at the outlet of hydraulically most remote 2 1/2” hose connection and 65 set-05
set-04
PSI at the outlet at the hydraulically most remote 1 1/2” hose station.
set-03
70 set-02
Outlet pressures which do not correspond to NFPA 14 requirements must be

authorized by local fire department. 50 set-01
There will be a pressure drop due to friction between the outlet and the nozzle.
30
The amount of this loss should be calculated by qualified personnel, to assure 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100 105 110 115 120
that the nozzle receives water pressure sufficient to its design needs. Pressure difference Inlet-Outlet [PSI]
Note that some fire hose nozzles may not operate properly when valve outlet
pressure is set at the 100 PSI minimum authorized in the 2007 edition of NFPA 14.
The installer should consult with the fire authorities concerning pressures A155 - A156 1 1/2” SETTING: 7-F.O.
needed by their equipment.
The outlet pressures indicated in the curves are at the outlet of the valve. 320
