Rack storage sprinklers, sometimes referred to as intermediate level or baffle sprinklers, have large discs (baffles) designed to shield the thermosensitive assembly from impingement from the spray of sprinklers suspended at higher levels. Without the protective discs, the impinging water could cool the thermosensitive element and retard sprinkler operation.
