Extended Coverage Plate for Recessed Canopies

In response to recent requests and requirements by Authority`s Having Jusrisdiction and contractors, FPPI introduces a round plate that when used with a Recessed Canopy will provide an esthetic solution to the larger diameter holes being required to meet to new earthqauke requirements for pipe penetrations. AHJ`s in many jurisdictions are now requiring a minimum clearance of at least 1" on all sides of the penetration for sprinklers through ceiling surfaces. Typical sprinkler canopies don`t have sufficient outside diamter to cover the larger hole. Simply slip the Extended Coverage plate onto the skirt of the Recessed Canopy and install over the canopy retainer as you normally would with a Recessed Canopy. Available in two sizes, 4" or 5" Outside Diameter and in two finishes, Chrome and White. Visit the Products section of our website.

FPPI`s New Alarm Back Box (US Patent No. Des. D563,896) made from ABS can be installed in more environments than the cast metal version. ABS has superior electrical insulation properties, is tough is impact and heat resistant and offers a great solution for corrosive* environments. Each back box is poly bagged and includes four bell mounting screws and one 1/2" NPT plug. * ABS polymers are resistant to aqueous acids, alkalis, concentrated hydrochloric and phosphoric acids, alcohols and animal, vegetable and mineral oils but are swollen by glacial acetic acid carbon tetrachloride, aromatic hydrocarbons, and are attacked by concentrated sulfuric and nitric acids.
