This document reflects upon the
vital steps that needed in order to install a fire suppression system manually.
Installation Process
·
After separating the wire cable activation lines that
are used for fusible links, you need to remotely pull the station provided as
an additional measure for safety. The integral design of the fire suppression
system allows you to directly connect the actuation pressure cylinder with the
control head without any requirement for high-pressure
hose or pipe.
·
You may require a schedule 40 black iron, stainless
steel or a chrome plated pipe as an unbalanced piping network although
simplifies the application design and thus the installation but requires no
additional piping to be connected to the system’s pressure cylinders that
contain the extinguishing agent.
·
The cylinders need to be installed that either
contains or required to be filled with PYRO-CHEM Potassium Carbonate aqua
chemical solution and needs to be stored at a 225 psi according to the 15.5 bar measure. The cylinders must include a
pressure gauge that helps the maintenance checks visually. The available sizes
in the market include a 1.6, 3.0, 4.6 and 6.0 gallons that provide 5, 10, 15,
and 20 coverage of flow point respectively.
·
The nozzles must be fitted in accordance that the
movement to be allowed is at least 30o.
·
Pull Station of the system allows simple operational
instructions with a double action release that minimizes the manual operations done
accidentally.
·
The equipment that enables a fusible link detection
shall be included to accommodate both series and the terminal subjugation that
helps to minimize the inventory and simplifies the ordering. All the vital
components are included in the installation for an efficient assembling and
installation purposes. A precaution must be taken while ordering the fusible
links that their maximum ambient temperatures shall be ordered individually and
the maximum limit for 20 fusible links on the 150 ft cable must run with a 40 corner pulleys that are substantial for
hazard coverage.
·
The Automatic Gas Shut-Off valve must be installed
which complies with the requirements that pertain to the shutting off of the
fuel which is explicitly described by the NFPA
clause 17A. The setting of this
apparatus must be such the control head can be reset after a regular
maintenance checking to make it convenient for the technicians.
·
The final step towards installing the kitchen fire suppression attach a
flexible conduit that allows for quicker installation processes for the convenience of routing the
cables over, under or around the obstacles. This is used as a substitute for
the standard installation of EMT conduit and can be used simultaneously with
the later as well.
