 Axis Safety provides upright, pendent-type sprinkler heads.

A fire sprinkler or sprinkler head is the component of a fire sprinkler system that discharges water when the effects of a fire have been detected, such as when a predetermined temperature has been exceeded.

K-factor helps to calculate the discharge rate from fire sprinkler heads. It's calculated in imperial units for the United States by using the flow in gallons per minute (gpm) and the pressure in PSI. A sprinkler with an imperial K factor of 5.6 would give a flow rate of 15.0 US gpm with a pressure drop of 7.2 psi. Alternatively, for a given flow rate through the sprinkler, the pressure loss can be calculated from the K value. 

The SHIELD Sprinklers, SD1010, SD1015, SD1030, SD1032 (Glass Bulb Type), Standard Orifice, Upright, Pendent and Recessed Pendent type, design incorporates state-of-the-art, heat responsive, frangible glass bulb design (standard or quick response) for prompt, precise operation.

The forged frame is more streamlined and attractive than traditional sand cast frames. It is cast with a hex-shaped wrench to allow easy tightening from different angles. This sprinkler is available in various temperature ratings and finishes to meet many design requirements. The recessed pendent should be utilized with a recessed escutcheon which provides up ¾” of adjustments. All Sprinklers are manufactured using the time proven Belleville seal used exclusively by all
