Viking E-1 Recessed Adjustable Sprinkler Escutcheon for Fire Systems

The Viking E-1 Recessed Adjustable Sprinkler Escutcheon is a professional-grade finishing component designed for seamless integration with fire sprinkler assemblies in wet, dry, or preaction systems. It installs directly onto recessed and flush automatic fire sprinklers, functioning as a protective and aesthetic barrier that conceals the annular space between the sprinkler head and the ceiling or wall. By sealing this gap, it prevents heat and smoke from escaping into the ceiling plenum above, ensuring timely thermal activation of the sprinkler and associated smoke detectors during a fire event.

Engineered to comply with NFPA 13 standards, this listed escutcheon satisfies code requirements mandating approved trim components as part of the complete sprinkler assembly. The two-piece slip-on design allows the outer cup to be removed and reinstalled without draining the system or removing the sprinkler head, facilitating fast maintenance access to the plenum space for building equipment servicing.

• Durable Construction: Crafted from high-quality metals, including premium stainless steel options engineered to resist high temperatures and maintain structural integrity under fire conditions.
• Adjustable Fit: Features a two-piece, slip-on design providing up to 5/8" (16mm) of recess adjustment to accommodate pipe or ceiling pitch and achieve a flush mounting finish.
• Corrosion Resistance: Available in high-performance finishes—such as polished chrome, white, bright brass, and Nickel PTFE—designed to prevent tarnishing in harsh environments.
• Orifice Compatibility: Accommodates sprinkler heads with 1/2", 3/4", and 3/8" NPT orifice sizes.
