Pendant Sprinkler

Since a pendant type hangs from the pipeline, its water deflector is placed at the bottom, but water spreads in the same circular pattern as that of an upright sprinkler. Pendant sprinklers, used mostly in office or home buildings, may be visible or not. When concealed, pendant sprinklers hide under the ceiling under a special cap that falls away when the surrounding temperature rises to a prescribed level. If the temperature continues to rise, the concealed pendant head automatically drops and begins to spray water. Pendant sprinklers are mostly used in office buildings where obstructions to water spray are minimal.
