Abstract
A sprinkler assembly includes a sprinkler body having a base and a frame extending from the base. The base has a passage extending therethrough defining an inlet and an outlet. A deflector is mounted to the frame and spaced from the outlet, which is configured to deflect fluid flowing from the outlet in a radial pattern. A trigger assembly extends between the frame and the base and is adapted to support a plug in the outlet and release the plug when a temperature associated with a fire condition is detected. The plug is made from plastic and can include a reinforcing insert.
