Original Press Release:



New Cover Plate Enables Quick Response Protection of Cleanrooms



May 27, 2009

Hastings, Michigan, USA - Viking Corporation, a leading manufacturer of fire sprinklers, valves, and related equipment, has introduced a new concealed cover plate for "cleanroom" applications. In these environments, it is critical that dust and other particles are not allowed to enter the area. One potential source for dust intrusion is through the area where the sprinkler is installed.

This new cover plate assembly, which is cULus listed with Viking's Mirage® line of concealed sprinklers, provides an effective seal against outside contaminants entering the protected environment. The flat cover plate, which installs flush to the ceiling, is pre-assembled with a thin silicone gasket installed around the cover plate. In addition to a more attractive appearance, the new cleanroom cover plate allows the sprinkler to maintain its quick response listing, providing a more economical option for protecting cleanroom applications.

The new cleanroom cover plate is available in 135°F (57°C) and 165°F (74°C) temperature ratings and several standard finishes. The product is also listed for use with Viking's new Mirage® concealed sprinkler for MRI rooms (non-ferrous sprinkler).

Viking Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viking Group, Inc, a privately-held manufacturer and distributor of fire protection products and services. Founded in 1921, the company's products and services are sold in over 70 countries through an integrated distribution network.
