Viking sprinkler escutcheons are ornamental plates used with 3/8” NPT (10 mm BSP)*, ½” NPT (15 mm BSP)*, and ¾” NPT (20 mm BSP)* frame-style pendent and sidewall* sprinklers. The escutcheons are installed between the sprinklers and the ceiling or wall for a pleasing appearance. They are available with several finish options to meet design requirements.
Viking recessed and adjustable escutcheons provide a low-profile decorative recessed sprinkler installation. The Micromatic® E-1 Recessed Escutcheon may be recessed up to 5/8” (16 mm). The Model G-1 Recessed Escutcheon allows horizontal sidewall sprinklers to be recessed up to 1/2” (12.7 mm). The Microfast® Model F-1 Adjustable Escutcheon has ½” (12.7 mm) total adjustment available.
The two-piece design of Viking’s recessed and adjustable escutcheons allows installation and testing of the sprinklers prior to installing the ceiling or wall. Viking’s Model E-1, F-1, and G-1 Escutcheons feature a slip-on design, while the Model E-2 and E-3 escutcheons are threaded (outer cup threads onto the adapter).
The Viking adjustable and recessed escutcheons are made to allow for minor adjustments due to pipe or ceiling pitch. These escutcheons can be removed and reinstalled, allowing access above removable ceiling panels for servicing building equipment without shutting down the sprinkler system and removing the sprinkler. Viking standard 1/8” (3 mm) style flat and 1” (25 mm) style raised surface-mounted escutcheons have a one-piece design
