Viking NP-1 Recessed Escutcheon for XT1 Sprinklers

The Viking NP-1 Recessed Escutcheon is a precision-engineered trim assembly designed to provide a clean, integrated finish for commercial and industrial fire suppression systems. Installed in wet or dry fire sprinkler assemblies where recessed and flush sprinklers are utilized, this component covers the annular space between the sprinkler head and the ceiling or wall. Without a properly fitted escutcheon, heat and smoke could bypass the ceiling prematurely, delaying sprinkler activation and jeopardizing early fire detection.

This assembly satisfies the strict design and installation mandates of NFPA 13, which requires listed escutcheons for recessed and flush fire sprinklers to maintain proper thermal response and ceiling integrity. As the only recessed escutcheon rated specifically for Viking XT1 fire sprinkler heads, it ensures exact compatibility and code-compliant performance across diverse occupancy classifications.
