Extended Coverage Fire Suppression Sprinkler

Overview

 

Extended coverage fire suppression sprinkler is a type of automatic fire sprinkler designed to cover a larger area per head than standard sprinklers.

 

• Larger Coverage Area: Typically, extended coverage sprinklers can cover 144–400 sq. ft. (13–37 m²) per sprinkler, depending on the model and hazard classification. Standard sprinklers usually cover about 100–130 sq. ft.
• Longer Throw Distance: They distribute water farther, allowing fewer sprinklers in large spaces.
• Faster Response Options: Many EC sprinklers are available in Quick Response (QR) versions for life-safety areas.
• Various Types: Can be pendent, upright, or sidewall, depending on ceiling design and installation.
