INSTALLATION (continued)
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM INSTALLATION
1. Any REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION must be installed by an
authorized ANSUL® distributor in accordance with the
AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION.
NOTE: If a REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION is installed, moving
the unit for servicing will cause the Ansul® system to discharge. In
this case, the unit must only be installed with four fixed legs
(i.e. remove rear casters and replace with legs). Additional legs may
be ordered through an Authorized Wells Service Agency. See page 29.
2. The FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM is comprised of a
pressurized cartridge &
container of liquid fire
suppressant, with
associated plumbing and
controls. It utilizes factory
installed FUSIBLE LINKS
for automatic actuation,
and a factory installed
MANUAL PULL STATION
for manual actuation.
Two NOZZLES are used
to disperse the liquid fire
suppression media.
3. When the fire suppression
system activates, the fire
suppression media is
discharged, both the
cooking appliance and the
ventilator are de-energized,
and a buzzer will sound
continuously.
The fire suppression media
will form an emulsion
designed to both smother
and cool the fire.
Call your Authorized Ansul® Distributor immediately for
service.
NOTE: See page 27 for the Material Safety Data Sheet for the fire
suppression agent.
4. The MANUAL PULL STATION and any similar REMOTE MANUAL
PULL STATION will activate the fire suppression system when the
ring on the pull station is pulled horizontally.
