Short Description
The 1/2" Brass Butterfly Roof-Mounted Sprinkler is a compact, durable sprinkler head commonly used by fire departments for roof, structure, and exposure protection. Designed to provide a wide circular spray pattern, this sprinkler helps wet down surrounding areas and reduce fire spread risk during wildfire, interface, and structural protection operations.
Full Description
The Butterfly Sprinkler Roof Mounted – 1/2" Brass is a reliable sprinkler head designed for temporary or semi-permanent fire protection applications. Its brass construction provides durability and corrosion resistance, while the butterfly-style spray pattern delivers broad water coverage over roofs, buildings, and exposed surfaces.
This sprinkler is commonly used by fire departments for wildland/urban interface protection, structure protection, and roof wet-down operations. When installed on a roof or elevated surface, the sprinkler helps create a wet perimeter by spraying water in a wide circular pattern, assisting in the protection of buildings from radiant heat, flying embers, and nearby fire exposure.
Each sprinkler can provide an approximate 30-foot spray radius, covering up to a 60-foot diameter area, depending on available water pressure and site conditions. Similar butterfly sprinkler heads generally operate in a low-flow range, making them suitable for use where multiple sprinklers may be deployed from a portable pump, water supply line, or temporary hose setup.
For best performance, the sprinkler should be operated within an approximate 30 to 60 PSI pressure range. Actual spray distance and water flow may vary depending on hose size, pump capacity, water pressure, elevation, and the number of sprinklers being used.
