    Abstract: A cover plate is configured to be releasably connected to a fire protection sprinkler to conceal the fire protection sprinkler. The cover plate includes a first layer of metal on a first side of the cover plate that faces the concealed fire protection sprinkler, and a second layer of metal on a second side of the cover plate, the second side being opposite to the first side. The second layer of metal is bonded to the first layer and is more resistant to corrosion than is the first layer. In addition, the first layer is more thermally conductive than is the second layer. The fire protection sprinkler is configured to activate upon activation of a thermally responsive element. The thermally responsive element is a bulb or a soldered link.

    Abstract: A ceiling-only fire protection sprinkler system for a storage area having a storage height up to forty-three feet (thirteen and one tenth meters) and a ceiling height exceeding forty-five feet (thirteen and seven tenths meters). The storage area includes floor storage or rack storage that has aisle widths less than six feet (one and eight tenths meters) and transverse flue spaces less than six inches (one hundred fifty millimeters). The system includes fire suppression sprinklers that each includes a deflector positioned at a height that is at least three feet (nine tenths meters) greater than the storage height and at least one foot (three tenths meters) below the ceiling. Activated sprinklers have a coverage area greater than sixty-four square feet (five and nine tenths square meters) and up to one hundred square feet (nine and three tenths square meters) per each activated sprinkler.
