Hastings, MI, USA - Viking Corporation, a global leader in fire protection and life safety systems, announces the availability of a new quick response, extended coverage, horizontal sidewall sprinkler designed specifically to protect corridors, hallways, decks, walkways, and any other application where a wide spray pattern is optimal. The new model VK638, which is cULus Listed for Light Hazard occupancies and has a K Factor of 8.0 (115), is available in both recessed and domed concealed models.

The new "Corridor Sprinkler" uses Viking's patented flow-shaper technology to provide larger coverage areas at lower flow and pressure requirements.

The 28 x 12 ft (8,5 x 3,7 m) coverage area is unique in the industry, providing a significant flow and pressure advantage for fire sprinkler systems where this area of coverage can be applied.
