FASTFLEX is a unique
sprinkler drop assembly comprised of
the following: branchline adapter nip-
ple, stainless steel exible hose with
two slip nuts, sprinkler reducer, and
lightweight ceiling bracket compo-
nents. (Refer to Figure 1.)
Using FASTFLEX can save time and
costs since the system can be in-
stalled in false ceilings without cut-
ting and threading pipes associated
with installing a drop, armover, and el-
bows. FASTFLEX makes it possible to
test and charge the system with wa-
ter before the ceiling grid is installed.
Once the ceiling grid is in position, the
FASTFLEX hoses can be reshaped to
suit the nal sprinkler location without
draining the system.
FASTFLEX exible sprinkler hose is
installed quickly without large and ex-
pensive tools. Ideal projects are of-
ces, schools, libraries, hospitals,
and shopping complexes. FASTFLEX
sprinkler hoses are for use on wet pipe
sprinkler systems only.
FASTFLEX offers the following fea-
tures:
Reduced labor costs. Using FAST-
FLEX will reduce labor costs by in-
creasing efciency. The installation
rate is two to three times quick-
er when compared to traditional t-
ting methods of installing sprinkler
drops.
Reduced need to recut sprinkler
drops. It is not necessary to adjust
sprinkler location if ceiling alignment
and level are changed.
More convenient work ow. Using
FASTFLEX eases bending and ma-
neuvering around ducts and trays in
congested spaces and for unusu-
al ceiling types and curved plaster-
board ceilings.

Construction (Ref. Fig. 1)
The Inlet Nipple is mild steel, and the
Flexible Hose is SS AISI 304. The con-
nection at each end of the Flexible
Hose utilizes a brass Slip Nut, NBR/CR
o-ring, and Nylon W6 washer. The
Sprinkler Reducer is mild steel. The
Reducer Bracket, Bar Fixing Clamps,
and Support Bar are pressed steel.

type Prima Sahara
API Systems- 15/38, 24/38, 24/60, 35/38, and 35/60
with panel type of a.m.
VdS Friction Loss
For compensation of pressure loss, the nominal as-
sembly length is to be multiplied by 12. The resulting
length will provide pressure drop in equivalent length
DN20 (26,9 x 2,3 mm) seamless metal tube per DIN
2448.
Add 2,3 m when using a 45 or 90 sprinkler reducer.
Minimum bend radius of 55 mm.
The tube assembly may not have more than one 90
bend or four 15 bends.
