About this file
This is a technical data document for Viking Corporation's Microfast and MicrofastHP Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers, which are small, thermosensitive, glass-bulb spray sprinklers designed for fire suppression systems. The sprinklers are available in multiple finishes (Brass, Chrome-Enloy, White Polyester, Black Polyester, and Black Teflon) and temperature ratings ranging from 135°F to 286°F, with nominal K-Factors varying from 2.8 to 8.0. The document provides comprehensive technical specifications including minimum operating pressure of 7 psi, maximum working pressure up to 250 psi for high-pressure models, and factory hydrostatic testing to 500 psi. Material standards specify frame castings in brass (UNS-C84400 or QM Brass), deflectors in phosphor bronze or copper, and glass bulbs with nominal 3 mm diameter. The sprinklers are cULus Listed, FM Approved, NYC Approved, ABS Certified, VdS Approved, LPC Approved, and CE Certified to various international standards including EN 12259-1.
The document establishes multiple approval pathways and design criteria for installation in Light and Ordinary Hazard occupancies, with specific references to NFPA 13 installation standards and NFPA 25 inspection, testing, and maintenance requirements. Corrosion-resistant coatings (White Polyester, Black Polyester, and Black Teflon) have passed standard corrosion tests but compatibility with specific environments must be verified by the end-user prior to installation. Available sprinkler wrenches include standard wrenches (Part No. 10896W/B) and specialty wrenches for coated and recessed sprinklers (Part No. 12144W/B), with sprinkler cabinets available in six-head and twelve-head capacities. The document references Viking's current price list for ordering information and indicates that sprinklers are available through a network of domestic and international distributors. This technical data replaces previous versions dated April 16, 2010, and was current as of May 7, 2010.

1. DESCRIPTION
Viking Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers are small, thermosensitive, glass-bulb spray sprinklers available in several different finishes and temperature ratings and K-Factors to meet design requirements. The special Polyester and Teflon® coatings can be used in decorative applications where colors are desired.
In addition, these coatings have been investigated for installation in corrosive at-mospheres and are cULus listed as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval Chart. (Note: FM Global has no approval classification for Teflon® and Polyester coat-ings as corrosion resistant.)

For Teflon® Coated Sprinklers: Belleville Spring-Exposed, Screw-Nickel Plated, Pip Cap-Teflon® Coated For Polyester Coated Sprinklers: Belleville Spring-Exposed Ordering Information: (Also refer to the current Viking price list.)
Order Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers by first adding the appropriate suffix for the sprinkler fin-ish and then the appropriate suffix for the temperature rating to the sprinkler base part number.
Finish Suffix: Brass = A, Chrome-Enloy® = F, White Polyester = M-/W, Black Polyester = M-/B, and Black Teflon® = N Temperature Suffix (°F/°C): 135°/57° = A, 155°/68° = B, 175°/79° = D, 200°/93° = E, and 286°/141° = G For example, sprinkler VK302 with a 1/2” thread, Brass finish and a 155 °F/68 °C temperature rating = Part No. 06662BAB Available Finishes And Temperature Ratings:
Refer to Table 1.
Accessories: (Also refer to the “Sprinkler Accessories” section of the Viking data book.)
Sprinkler Wrenches:
A. Standard Wrench: Part No. 10896W/B (available since 2000).
B. Wrench for Coated and/or Recessed Sprinklers: Part No. 12144W/B* (available since 2003) C. Optional Protective Sprinkler Cap Remover/Escutcheon Installer Tool** Part No. 15915 (available since 2010.)
NOTE: RECESSED PENDENT SPRINKLERS WITH PROTECTIVE CAPS MUST USE WRENCH 12144W/B.
*A ½” ratchet is required (not available from Viking).
**Allows use from the floor by attaching a length of 1” diameter CPVC tubing to the tool. Ideal for sprinkler cabinets. Refer to Bulletin F_051808.
Sprinkler Cabinets:
A. Six-head capacity: Part No. 01724A (available since 1971) B. Twelve-head capacity: Part No. 01725A (available since 1971)
4. INSTALLATION
Refer to appropriate NFPA Installation Standards.
5. OPERATION
During fire conditions, the heat-sensitive liquid in the glass bulb expands, causing the glass 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 requirements.
7. AVAILABILITY
The Viking Microfast® and MicrofastHP® Quick Response Pendent Sprinklers are available through a network of domestic and international distributors. See The Viking Corporation web site for the closest distributor or contact The Viking Corporation.
8. GUARANTEE

Refer to specific installation standards.
3 The corrosion-resistant coatings have passed the standard corrosion test required by the approving agencies indicated in the Approval Charts. These tests cannot and do not represent all possible corrosive environments. Prior to installation, verify through the end-user that the coatings are compat-ible with or suitable for the proposed environment. For automatic sprinklers, the coatings indicated are applied to the exposed exterior surfaces only.
