DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The Globe Model H-1, H-2 and H-3 Alarm Check Valves
are used in wet pipe fire sprinkler systems. They primarily
serve a dual purpose in that they prevent a reverse flow of
water through their bodies (non-return) and also provide for
the use of a hydraulic fire alarm which is not dependent
upon an electrical power supply for its operation. Through
the use of a hydraulic retard chamber a time delay is
provided to eliminate potential false alarms caused by
fluctuating water supply pressures. Where constant pressure water supplies are used the retard chamber (time
delay) is not necessary. By incorporating the use of
electrical pressure switches, other supplemental alarms,
annunciators etc. may also be used.
A unique feature found on the Globe 3", 4" and 6" Alarm
Valves is the clapper being hinged to the handhole cover
for extreme ease of removal for inspection and service.
Globe Model H-1, H-2 and H-3 Alarm Check Valves
may be installed in both vertical and horizontal positions
and trim can be provided for both variable and constant
water supply pressures in either of these positions.
The body of the Alarm Check Valve is constructed of
high tensile strength cast iron having considerable ductility
to reduce damage in field handling.
All interior operating parts are machined from highly
corrosive-resistant alloys, each having high strength and
good wear resistance.
Rubber parts are of selective materials which have
good abrasive resistance and long life expectancy in
terms of resiliency.

DESCRIPTION
AND
OPERATION
The Globe Quick Response GL5613 and GL8113 Extended Coverage Horizontal Sidewall
Adjustable Concealed Sprinkler for light hazard occupancies, have the lowest profile available for this
type of sprinkler, providing an aesthetically pleasing design. It provides sprinkler operation approximately six times faster than ordinary sprinklers and can be installed wherever standard concealed
spray sprinklers are specified when allowed by the applicable standards, and in accordance with
NFPA 13. The sprinkler has 1/2 of adjustment for ease of installation. All that is seen on the wall is
a 3 1/4 diameter wall plate color finished to match the specifiers exact requirements. In addition to
making the sprinkler much less noticeable, the wall plate assembly also provides protection for the
sprinkler from flying or hanging objects.
The heart of Globe's Model GL Series sprinkler proven actuating assembly is a hermetically sealed
frangible glass ampule that contains a precisely measured amount of fluid. The 3mm frangible glass
ampule provides sprinkler operation approximately six times faster than standard response sprinklers, they can also be installed wherever standard extended coverage horizontal sidewall sprinklers
are specified. The wall plate is soldered to the sprinklers special upper support assembly in three
places. Upon the application of sufficient heat, the plate falls to the floor exposing the quick response
sprinkler. At the rated temperature the internal pressure within the ampule exceeds the strength of the
glass causing the glass to shatter. This results in water discharge which is distributed in an approved
pattern.

FOR SEISMIC AREAS C, D & E
The Globe Quick Response GL5606 Adjustable Concealed Pendent Sprinkler has a low profile,
aesthetically pleasing design. It provides sprinkler operation approximately six times faster than ordinary
sprinklers and can be installed wherever standard concealed spray sprinklers are specified when allowed
by the applicable standards. It offers the additional feature of greatly increased safety to life and should be
used advisedly and under the direction of approving authorities having jurisdiction. The sprinkler is available
with a nominal 1" of adjustment and a low profile cover plate assembly. The 4 1/2" diameter cover plate
allows for 1" clearance around the sprinkler body. The GL Series Concealed Sprinkler may be virtually
invisible as it does not interrupt the "smooth flow" of the ceiling. Globe's Concealed Sprinkler utilizes its 3mm
frangible glass ampule which is located above the ceiling and concealed from view by the ceiling plate.
The provided protective cap needs to be removed in order to install the sprinkler with the proper wrench.
The protective cap must be replaced on the sprinkler until the time the cover plate is to be installed. The "push
on - screw off" designed cover plate is easily installed and with a nominal 1" inch of adjustment makes it
easier to get a proper fit at the ceiling.
Operation of the sprinkler occurs when heat build up causes the solder holding the cover plate to the
support shell to melt allowing the cover plate to fall clear. Continued heat build up causes the 3mm glass
bulb to burst allowing the deflector to drop down and distribute water in an approved pattern to extinguish
or control the fire.

GL SERIES
DRY TYPE
The Globe Quick Response GL Series Dry Type Pendent Sprinkler is
designed for use in special applications such as freezing environments and
conditions where sediment or foreign materials might accumulate in ordinary
drop nipples.
The Globe Quick Response GL Series Dry Type Pendent Sprinkler utilizes
a 3mm frangible glass ampule as the thermosensitive element. This provides
sprinkler operation approximately six times faster than ordinary sprinklers. At
the ampule's rated temperature, the sprinkler opens releasing the bulb seat,
causing the inner tube assembly to move, allowing the spring assembly to pivot
alongside the inner tube. At this time, water flows through the sprinkler and is
distributed by the deflector in an approved discharge pattern. It can be installed
wherever standard spray sprinklers are specified but offers the additional
feature of greatly increased safety to life. Quick Response Sprinklers should
be used advisedly and under the direction of approving authorities having
jurisdiction.
The heart of Globe's Model GL Series sprinkler proven actuating assembly
is a hermetically sealed frangible glass ampule that contains a precisely
measured amount of fluid. When heat is absorbed, the liquid within the bulb
expands increasing the internal pressure. At the prescribed temperature the
internal pressure within the ampule exceeds the strength of the glass causing
the glass to shatter. This results in water discharge which is distributed in an
approved pattern.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION DATA

Globe GL Series Dry Pendent sprinklers should be installed
in accordance with the requirements set forth in NFPA 13.
These sprinklers are to be installed using a pipe wrench applied
to the outer tube. When this is not possible, the proper sprinkler
head wrench may be used with extreme care for lengths up
to approximately 18". Excessive force may distort the frame
thus destroying the unit.
For further important installation data, please refer to our
Dry Sprinkler Caution Sheet.

The Globe Quick Response Model GL5628 Extended

Coverage Horizontal Sidewall Sprinkler is a low profile yet
durable design which utilizes a 3mm frangible glass ampule as the thermosensitive element. This provides sprinkler operation approximately six times faster than ordinary
sprinklers. While these Quick Response Sprinklers provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance, they can be
installed wherever standard extended coverage horizontal sprinklers are specified; but offer the additional feature
of greatly increased safety to life. Quick Response Sprinklers should be used advisedly and under the direction of
approving authorities having jurisdiction, in accordance
with their listings and in accordance with NFPA 13.
The heart of Globe's Model GL Series sprinkler proven
actuating assembly is a hermetically sealed frangible
glass ampule that contains a precisely measured amount
of fluid. When heat is absorbed, the liquid within the bulb
expands increasing the internal pressure. At the prescribed temperature the internal pressure within the ampule exceeds the strength of the glass causing the glass to
shatter. This results in water discharge which is distributed
in an approved pattern.
