The Viking Model V-BB (Back to Back) Attic Sprinklers are UL Listed for both wet and dry pipe systems in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces, and can be installed with steel or CPVC piping. (CPVC is allowed on wet pipe systems only.) When used with Viking's Model V-SD (Single Directional) and VK696 Attic Upright sprinklers, it is possible to utilize a single line of piping at the attic peak, eliminating the need for branch lines and greatly reducing the number of required sprinklers and associated materials. The Model V-BB is a glass bulb design with a temperature rating of 200° F, and is offered in either standard brass or ENT plating for areas subject to corrosion.  The Viking Model V-BB Attic Sprinkler provides a reduced response time due to its narrow ridge spacing of 6 ft (1,8 m) and long throw pattern (up to 30 ft in each direction measured horizontally), and is offered in three different slope ranges and two different orifice sizes (K=5.6 or 8.0).

The Viking Model V-SD (Single Directional) Attic Sprinkler is UL Listed for both wet and dry pipe systems in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces, and can be installed with steel or CPVC piping. (CPVC is allowed on wet pipe systems only.) When used with Viking's Model  V-BB (Back to Back) and VK696 Attic Upright sprinklers, it is possible to utilize a single line of piping at the attic peak, eliminating the need for branch lines and greatly reducing the number of required sprinklers and associated materials. The Model V-SD is a glass bulb design with a temperature rating of 200° F, and is offered in either standard brass or ENT plating for areas subject to corrosion. The Model V-SD (Single Directional) sprinkler provides a reduced response time due to its narrow ridge spacing of 6 ft. (1,8 m) and long throw pattern (up to 40 ft. in a single direction measured horizontally) and is offered in three different slope ranges and one orifice size (K=5.6). Listed for specific pitches 4:12<7:12, 7:12<10:12 and 10:12≤12:12, and spans 40 ft. and 30 ft.

The Viking Model VK696 Attic Sprinkler is UL Listed for both wet and dry pipe systems for use in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces, and can be installed with steel or CPVC piping. (CPVC is allowed on wet pipe systems only.) When used with Viking's Model V-BB (Back to Back) and V-SD (Single Directional) Attic sprinklers, it is possible to utilize a single line of piping at the attic peak, eliminating the need for branch lines and greatly reducing the number of required sprinklers and associated materials. Installed in the upright position, with the deflector parallel to the roof, the VK696 is used in combination with either the Model BB or Model SD to increase the allowable span from 60 ft up to 80 ft (max.).  The Model V696 is a glass bulb design with a temperature rating of 200° F, and is offered in either standard brass or ENT plating for areas subject to corrosion. (Note: The Model VK696 is covered by the following U.S. Patent No.: 8,083,002 owned by Tyco)  

The VK660 is a Specific Application Attic Sprinkler designed to provide superior fire protection in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces when compared to standard spray attic protection. With specific application criteria for use with Model V-BB (Back to Back), Model V-SD (Single Directional), and Attic Upright Specific Application Sprinklers, the Viking attic sprinklers provide an extended coverage spacing alternative to standard spray sprinklers. They make it possible to use a single line of piping at the attic peak, eliminating the need for branch lines and greatly reducing the number of required sprinklers and associated material and installation costs. Viking Attic Sprinklers can be installed with either steel or CPVC piping (CPVC allowed on wet pipe systems only), and are available in brass or with corrosionresistant Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coatings where salt water and other  corrosive elements are a consideration. They are cULus Listed with specific application guidelines for use as special sprinklers as defined by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and are cULus Listed for extended coverage in combustible and non-combustible construction. The cULus Listing was achieved using full-scale fire tests within wood truss construction.

The Viking Attic Upright VK697 is a specific application attic sprinkler that provides superior fire protection in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces when used in conjunction with Viking’s model V-BB (Back to Back) and V-SD (Single Directional), and V-HIP specific application sprinklers. Installed in the upright position, with the deflector parallel to the roof, the Attic Upright used in combination with the model V-BB increases the allowable span from 60’ to 80’ (18,3 m to 24,4 m).  Viking Attic Upright sprinklers can be installed with either steel (black or galvanized) or CPVC piping, and allow the use of CPVC to feed the protected space below the attic (CPVC allowed on wet pipe systems only). They are available in brass or with corrosion-resistant Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coatings where salt water and other corrosive elements are a consideration. Viking Attic Upright sprinklers are cULus Listed with specific application guidelines for use as special sprinklers as defined by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and are listed for specific pitch range 4:12 to 12:12. (Note: The Model VK697 is covered by the following U.S. Patent No.: 8,083,002 owned by Tyco)

The Model V-EP (Eave Protection) Specific Application Attic Sprinkler is designed to provide superior fire protection in combustible and non-combustible sloped attic spaces when compared to standard spray attic protection. With specific application criteria for use with Model VK697 Attic Upright Specific Application Sprinklers, Viking Attic Sprinklers provide an extended coverage spacing alternative to standard spray sprinklers. They make it possible to use a 3 branch line design for spans up to 80 ft. (24,4 m) and a 5 branch line design for spans greater than 80 ft. (24,4 m) and up to 100 ft. (30,5 m). This eliminates the need for branch lines and greatly reduces the number of required sprinklers and associated material and installation costs. Model V-EP models also have lower minimum flow and pressure requirements than competitive products. Listed for specific pitches 2½:12 ≤ 6:12, and spans 80 ft. and 100 ft.

Viking QR COIN® Sprinklers are quick response specific application sprinklers for combustible interstitial (concealed) spaces (i.e., between floors, as well as low pitch attics that meet the criteria shown in the figures in this data page). These upright sprinklers are designed for use in specific light hazard combustible, as well as non-combustible, concealed spaces requiring sprinkler protection. The glass bulb operating element and special deflector combine speed of operation and area of coverage to meet the crucial fire protection requirement for shallow space combustible concealed spaces. The Electroless Nickel PTFE (ENT) coating has been investigated for installation in corrosive atmospheres and is listed/approved as corrosion resistant as indicated in the Approval Charts.
