WARNING
• These products shall be used only in fire protection systems that are designed and installed in accordance
with current, applicable National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 13, 13D, 13R, etc.) standards, or equiva-
lent standards, and in accordance with applicable building and fire codes. These standards and codes contain
important information regarding protection of systems from freezing temperatures, corrosion, mechanical dam-
age, etc.
• The installer shall understand the use of this product and why it was specified for the particular application.
• The installer shall understand common industry safety standards and potential consequences of improper
product installation.
WARNING
• It is the responsibility of the system designer to verify suitability of 300-series stainless steel flexible hose for
use with the intended fluid media within the piping system and external environments.
• The effect of chemical composition, pH level, operating temperature, chloride level, oxygen level, and flow rate
on 300-series stainless steel flexible hose must be evaluated by the material specifier to confirm system life will
be acceptable for the intended service.
• It is the responsibility of the owner of a building or their authorized agent to provide the sprinkler system installer
with any knowledge that the water supply might be contaminated with or conducive to the development of
microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), including as required by NFPA 13. Failure to identify adverse water
quality issues may affect the VicFlex product and void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Failure to follow these instructions could cause product failure, resulting in serious personal injury and/or
property damage.
DO NOT paint, coat, or firestop the outlet/inlet portion of the Style VS1 Dry Sprinkler. Braided hose and fitting
portions of the Style VS1 Dry Sprinkler may be painted or coated, provided that the paint or coating is compatible
with stainless steel material. This includes penetration through firestop-filled annular space of a firewall. The firestop
material in direct contact with the flexible braided hose will not impede functionality of the Style VS1 Dry Sprinkler,
provided that the components are installed in accordance with Victaulic's installation instructions.
