Cesar, Viking Sprinkler has several extended coverage concealed sprinklers with several orifice sizes. K= 5.6, 8.0 and 11.2 are available. You need to determine the required density for the occupancy to prepare hydraulic calculations for your project.

Dear Todd, Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, you are right about where I am going to, I am planning to use Extended Coverage Sprinklers - concealed type. What should I do?

Cesar, You will have to go by the listing for the sprinkler. If it is specifically listed for Light Hazard only, you can't use it for OH. If it is listed for use in NFPA 13 occupancies, it could be used in Light or Ordinary. The Tyco RFII can be used in on OH occupancy, such as a retail store. If you are talking extended coverage, that may be a different animal.
