Component Description <br />Wet Chemical Agent - The extinguishing agent is a mixture of <br />organic salts designed for rapid flame knockdown and foam <br />securement of grease related fires. It is available in plastic <br />containers with instructions for wet chemical handling and <br />usage. <br />Agent Tank - The agent tank is installed in a stainless steel <br />enclosure or wall bracket. The tank is constructed of stainless <br />steel. <br />Tanks are available in two sizes: 1.5 gallon (5.7 L) and 3.0 gallon <br />(11.4 L). The tanks have a working pressure of 110 psi (7.6 bar), <br />a test pressure of 330 psi (22.8 bar), and a minimum burst pres- <br />sure of 660 psi (45.5 bar). <br />The tank includes an adaptor/tube assembly. The adaptor <br />assembly includes a chrome-plated steel adaptor with a 1/4 in. <br />NPT female gas inlet, a 3/8 in. NPT female agent outlet, and a <br />stainless steel agent pick-up tube. The adaptor also contains a <br />bursting disc seal which helps to prevent the siphoning of agent <br />up the pipe during extreme temperature variations. <br />Regulated Release Mechanism - The regulated release mecha- <br />nism is a spring-loaded, mechanical/pneumatic type capable of <br />providing the expellant gas supply to one, two, or three agent <br />tanks depending on the capacity of the gas cartridge used. It <br />contains a factory installed regulator deadset at 110 psi (7.6 bar) <br />with an external relief of approximately 180 psi (12.4 bar). It <br />has automatic actuation capabilities by a fusible link detec- <br />tion system and remote manual actuation by a mechanical pull <br />station. <br />The regulated release mechanism contains a release assembly, <br />regulator, expellant gas hose, and agent storage tank housed in <br />a stainless steel enclosure with cover. The enclosure contains <br />knock-outs for 1/2 in. conduit. The cover contains an opening for <br />a visual status indicator. <br />It is compatible with mechanical gas shut-off devices; or, when <br />equipped with a field or factory-installed switch and manual <br />reset relay, it is compatible with electric gas line or appliance <br />shut-off devices. <br />Regulated Actuator Assembly - When more than two agent <br />tanks (or three 3.0 gallon (11.4 L) tanks in certain applications) <br />are required, the regulated actuator is available to provide <br />expellant gas for additional tanks. It is connected to the cartridge <br />receiver outlet of the regulated release mechanism providing <br />simultaneous agent discharge. it contains a regulator deadset at • <br />'110 psi (7.6 bar) with an external relief of approximately 180 psi <br />(12.4 bar). It has automatic actuation capabilities using pressure <br />from the regulated release mechanism cartridge. <br />The regulated actuator assembly contains an actuator, regula- <br />tor, expellant gas hose, and agent tank housed in a stainless <br />steel enclosure with cover. The enclosure contains knockouts to <br />permit installation of the expellant gas line. <br />00-3368 <br />Discharge Nozzles - Each discharge nozzle is tested and listed <br />with the R-102 system for a specific application. Nozzle tips are <br />stamped with the flow number designation (1/2, 1, 2, or 3). Each <br />nozzle must have a metal or rubber blow-off cap to keep the <br />nozzle tip orifice free of cooking grease build-up. <br />Agent Distribution Hose - Kitchen appliances manufactured <br />with or resting on casters (wheels/rollers) may include an agent <br />distribution hose as a component of the suppression system. <br />This allows the appliance to be moved for cleaning purposes <br />without disconnecting the appliance fire suppression protection. <br />The hose assembly includes a restraining cable kit to limit the <br />appliance movement within the range (length) of the flexible <br />hose. <br />Flexible Conduit - Flexible conduit allows for quicker installa- <br />tions and the convenience of being able to route the cable over, <br />under and around obstacles. Flexible conduit can be used as a <br />substitute for standard EMT conduit or can be used with EMT <br />conduit. Flexible conduit can be used only with the Molded <br />Remote Manual Pull Station and with the Mechanical Gas Valve <br />Assembly. <br />Pull Station Assembly - The remote manual pull station is <br />made out of a molded red composite material. The red color <br />makes the pull station more readily identifiable as the manual <br />means for fire suppression system operation. The pull station is <br />compatible with the ANSUL Flexible Conduit and with <br />1/2 in. EMT conduit. <br />Approvals <br />UlJULC Listed <br />CE Marked <br />New York City Department of Buildings — COA #5663 <br />LPCB <br />TFRI <br />Marine Equipment Directive (MED) <br />DNv <br />ABS <br />Lloyd's Register <br />Meets requirements of NFPA 96 (Standard for the Installation <br />of Equipment for the Removal of Smoke and Grease-Laden <br />Vapors from Commercial Cooking Equipment) <br />Meets requirements of NFPA 17A (Standard on Wet Chemical <br />Extinguishing Systems)
