Caledonia, Mich. - Viking Group, Inc., a Michigan-based manufacturer and distributor of fire protection solutions, is excited to announce over 20 sprinkler configurations in its brand-new FM Approved intermediate level in-rack storage family. Including both ELO and ESFR sprinklers, guards, watershields, and various installation tools, this new line of intermediate in-rack solutions ensures that customers can solve extensive storage obstacles in a world of growing automation and storage footprint expansion. In addition to the family’s broad FM Approval, the ESFR offering includes UL Listed options.
Applications such as automatic storage retrieval warehouses face unique challenges—contractors need to provide sufficient protection from difficult storage fires while simultaneously avoiding racking or container obstructions that could limit the sprinklers’ coverage. With the 20+ sprinkler and accessory configurations in this new offering, including a new recessed wrench that simplifies the installation, and the ability to use InstaSeal® compatible features and tools, and newly added guard and watershield sizes, this complete solution offers flexibility and ease.
“Our new offering really amplifies existing in-rack solutions and makes it so that the customer has an entire family of key options to choose from,” states Martin Workman, Sr. Vice President – Product Experience. “With the addition of our new guards and watershields, new installation tools including a recessed wrench for easy install, and the ability to utilize InstaSeal compatibility, customers have a large offering that makes their high-challenge rack storage schemes a lot easier to tackle.”
