INSTALLATION
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM INSTALLATION
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM is comprised of a container of
Ansulex® Low pH liquid fire suppression media and a system
pressurization canister for each module, plus associated plumbing.
Actuation controls are contained in the Automan enclosure.
Two FUSIBLE LINKS are utilized for automatic actuation of the fire
suppression system. Additionally, the hood is supplied with a field
installed MANUAL PULL STATION, which must be set-up at the time
of installation by an authorized Ansul® distributor.
The MANUAL PULL STATION allows for for manual emergency
shutdown of cooking appliance power, and actuation of the fire
suppression system.
Three NOZZLES disperse the fire suppression media. Two inner
nozzles protect the fan and plenum. The third, front mounted, nozzle
is swivel mounted, and must be directed toward the cooking surface
of the installed cooking appliance.
If the ventilator is situated such that the supplied manual pull
station cannot be installed or is not readily accessible, a REMOTE
MANUAL PULL STATION may be required by local codes. Any
such remote manual pull station must be installed by an authorized
Ansul® distributor in accordance with the AUTHORITY HAVING
JURISDICTION.
When the fire suppression system discharges, cooking appliance
contactor and building fire alarm relay are de-energized; and, the fire
suppression media discharged. Fire supression media will form an
emulsion designed to both smother and cool the fuels in/on the cooking
appliance.
