Per NFPA 13 Table 6.2.5.1, if you have maximum ceiling temp of 250°F, then you need sprinklers in the range of 325-375°F.

I don't believe you can mix response types. So, you would need all standard response in that area.

I have a situation where there is a parts steam cleaner that will put out
250 deg. Steam when opened to remove parts. The sprinklers in the area are
quick response type.  I want to put Extra High temp heads (325 deg) over the
cleaner, but I can only find them in standard response at that temp. Am I
being over cautious with that high temp of rating? And would all the heads
in the area have to be changed to standard response type?
