Fire Sprinkler Guard Help

This fire sprinkler head guard information is to assist in the selection of the correct sprinkler head guards and escutcheons when ordering from Swift Fire Protection Catalog.
Some of the part numbers for fire sprinkler head guards have changed in 2007, and we have also added additional fire sprinkler head guard and escutcheon products. Below you will find better quality photos that can be enlarged in order to see more details and understand the measurements for 1/2" vs. 3/4" sprinklers.

When measuring fire sprinkler heads, remember that 1/2" sprinkler heads have an inside diameter of 1/2" and an outside diameter of approximately 3/4".

If you measure across the outside of the threads of a sprinkler head, and the outside diameter is approximately 3/4", you have a 1/2" sprinkler head and should order guards and escutcheons for 1/2" sprinkler heads. If you measure across the threads of the sprinkler head and the measurement is approximately 1", you have 3/4" sprinkler heads and should order guards and escutcheons for 3/4" sprinkler heads. See photo diagram here.

Fire department professionals assign fire watch guards to certain shifts or periods of time depending on the shift schedule. A patrol that is dispatched on a regular basis will normally stay for a longer period of time compared to one that's only sent out for a couple of minutes.
