In the past I have used many off brand (not G of ASCOA) nozzles from Lechler and Bete so you may have something not intended for FP. Back then there wasn't much of a selection. Mostly just uprights, downrights and vertical sidewalls. Grinnell only had a few different deluge nozzles like cooling tower, EA1, D3 and D4, that was about it. We used to use a lot different orifice sizes to make things balance so you may have a tough time doing a recalc with new nozzles on existing pipe.

I guess worst case scenario, they would have to change the old nozzles with new. My drawing date is 8-5-1963 so it may be too old.

Nothing came up with that number. Thanks for your reply Chris, At that time,the deluge nozzles of choice were mfg. by ASCOA (Automatic Sprinkler Corporation of America) or Grinnell.Try a search on line as I have misplaced any data sheets I may have had (product of age,etc.) 8-) Lamar Vaughn > I am trying to find some info on a 1963 Deluge system nozzle.
