The ANSUL®R-102Tm Restaurant Fire Suppression System is an auto-
matic,pre-engineered,fire suppression system designed to protect
areas associated with ventilating equipment including hoods,ducts, oo42,P
plenums,and filters.The system also protects auxiliary grease extraction
equipment and cooking equipment such as fryers;griddles and range
tops;upright,natural charcoal,or chain-type broilers;electric,lava rock,
mesquite,or gas-radiant char-broilers;and woks.
The system is ideally suitable for use in restaurants,hospitals,nursing
homes,hotels,schools,airports,and other similar facilities. A system owner's guide is available containing basic information

The system is capable of automatic detection and actuation as well as
remote manual actuation.Additional equipment is available for building
fire alarm panel connections,electrical shutdown and/or interface,and
mechanical or electrical gas line shut-off applications.
The detection portion of the fire suppression system allows for auto-
matic detection by means of specific temperature-rated alloy type
fusible links,which separate when the temperature exceeds the rating
of the link,allowing the regulated release to actuate.
