Thanks Mike.

I should have clarified! Yes, that's the history. This head was recalled and I'm all ready with a 'like in kind'

But what I really wanna know is on the original drawing, the contractor says is that that head, the K17-231 had a
K of 17.50 in 1999!

Is that right? I doubt it! Thanks for the history... now, anyone got the Central cut sheet?

I believe http://www.tyco-fire.com/TD_TFP/TFP/TFP332_02_2012.pdf should be functionally identical, it was assimiliated into Tyco's product line directly I believe. They were introduced somewhere around 1999 as a "big box store" density area "bigger" ELO. Early models are subject to recall as they used belleville seals, see http://www.sprinklerreplacement.com/images/Bro_Cent_Comm.pdf, they did undergo FM fire testing in 98 according to an article that pops up in google so that may provide some more info

Most of that's from memory, but I'm still relatively young so hopefully it's somewhat accurate

Can someone come up with a cut sheet for this guy?

Central K17-231 (.775 Orif???) Upright K=17.50????

A cut sheet's great, a history of this head would be better!
