UPRIGHT TYPE SPRINKLER
An Upright Type Sprinkler is a fire sprinkler installed in an upright position, with the deflector facing upward. It is commonly used in industrial, commercial, and storage areas where piping is installed below the ceiling or where there is no false ceiling. Upright sprinklers are especially useful in places with obstructions, open ceilings, and uneven structural layouts.
Features:
- 1. Upward Deflector for Superior Coverage
- The Upright Sprinkler is engineered with an upward-facing deflector, allowing water to strike the deflector plate and disperse downward over a broad circular pattern. This design provides excellent coverage even in areas with numerous obstructions like beams, ducts, and storage racks. Unlike pendent sprinklers that depend on ceiling reflections, upright sprinklers deliver a strong downward shower that penetrates fire zones effectively.
- 2. Ideal for Open and Difficult Installations
- This sprinkler is perfect for open-ceiling structures, such as warehouses or industrial plants, where traditional sprinklers cannot be concealed. It can be mounted on exposed piping, saving installation time and cost. The design ensures reliable operation even in high ceilings, making it suitable for large-volume spaces.
- 3. High Durability and Corrosion Resistance
- Manufactured from premium-grade brass or bronze, the Upright Sprinkler offers long life and high corrosion resistance. In industrial environments where dust, heat, and pollutants are common, its rugged construction ensures dependable performance. Optional chrome, white, and corrosion-resistant finishes are also available for specialized applications.
- 4. Quick and Standard Response Options
- Available in Quick Response (QR) and Standard Response (SR) models, upright sprinklers can be selected based on the fire risk category. Quick response models activate faster to protect life safety areas, while standard response sprinklers are ideal for property protection applications.
- 5. Easy Inspection and Maintenance
- Because the sprinkler is openly visible and mounted above the pipe, maintenance teams can easily inspect for damage, corrosion, or paint interference. Upright sprinklers do not require ceiling modifications, making them simpler to service compared to concealed or pendent models.

An Upright Type Sprinkler is a highly reliable fire-protection device designed for environments with open ceilings, industrial structures, and areas where beam obstructions are common. Installed with its deflector facing upward, this sprinkler directs water upward onto the deflector, which then breaks the flow into a uniform, wide, and downward spray pattern. This ensures efficient fire suppression even in complex building layouts.
Because of its strong water distribution and robust construction, the Upright Sprinkler is commonly used in warehouses, factories, mechanical rooms, parking garages, and commercial buildings where both performance and durability are essential.
