I-5 Window Sprinkler - Model “WS”
Window Sprinklers Model WS
Description and Operation
Globe's Model WS Window Sprinklers are specially designed open style nozzles that provide a 180° relatively flat fan-shaped spray pattern. They are generally used to provide a water curtain over a glass window or other opening to prevent fire / heat penetration. They are also used to provide fire exposure protection from one closely located building to another and are also frequently used to protect steel beams and columns to help preserve structural integrity.
The water flow to Globe's Model Window Sprinkler is controlled either by a manually operated control valve or by means of an automatically operated deluge system.
Globe's Model WS Window Sprinklers may be installed in various positions depending on the hazard being protected. The Window Sprinkler installation diagram shown on this page represents a typical installation for the protection of glass windows. However, N.F.P.A. 13 should be consulted for the proper installation and spacing of the Globe Model WS Window Sprinklers.
