How Do Ansul Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems Work?

Specific discharge nozzles are used in Ansul Kitchen Systems, which are mounted above or close to each hazardous appliance, behind grease extractors, and into the ductwork.

The liquid fire suppressant's functions are to douse the flame, cool the surface, and interact with the blazing fat to form a soap-like layer. This layer will act as a barrier between the atmosphere and the burning fat, preventing the release of combusting vapors, which would otherwise result in re-flash.

The device offers a manual activation option in addition to being automatically activated when it senses a fire. A remote manual pull station can accomplish this. If necessary, applications for electrical shutdown, gas line shutoff, and connections to fire alarm panels are provided.
