COMMERCIAL KITCHEN
FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM
All over the world, several documented Disaster Management Reports have stated that kitchen fire in food service industry can wreck quite a havoc, if there are no quick and reliable Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems in place. In order to avoid such an accident and irreparable damage, it is recommended that commercial kitchens install pre-engineered, automatic, fire suppression systems especially designed to protect areas associated with ventilating (including cooker hoods, extraction ducting, plenums and filters) and cooking equipment (such as deep fat fryers, griddles, range tops; upright, natural charcoal or chain-type broilers, electric, lava rock, mesquite or gas-radiant char-broilers and woks).
ABOUT EUROSAFE KITCHEN FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM
Electric and gas-powered kitchen cooking gadgets contain a lot of flammable chemicals and are especially prone to sparking and catching fire.
The Eurosafe Kitchen Fire Suppression System is a pre-engineered, automatic system that protects the kitchen area, including ducts and plenums, as well as all culinary appliances such as deep fat fryers, woks, griddles, salamanders, chain broilers, and more.
This system meets the requirements of small and big kitchens in hotels, restaurants, hospitals, and public organizations. The system can also be constructed for residential premises’ domestic hoods.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Nozzles are positioned to provide maximum coverage of all installations.
- Heat detectors positioned within the plenum and activated only in the event of a fire
- The system disperses extinguishing chemicals throughout all protected spaces and cuts off the supply of gas or electricity.
- The temperature detection level can be tailored to each application.
The salient features of Eurosafe: In a nutshell
Let us take this opportunity to introduce you to Eurosafe kitchen fire suppression system. A compact and robust unit, The Eurosafe fire suppression system is comprised of a pressurized extinguishing agent storage container with a discharge valve and actuated using a solenoid valve, which can be operated manually or automatically.
FEATURES
- Rapid detection – Detects flames quickly to reduce damage and injuries.
- Stainless steel friendly - The extinguishing liquid has a low acid content (below pH: 9) and is suitable for use on stainless steel surfaces.
- Dual action - Extinguishes the _re while also stopping the energy supply.
- Environmentally friendly - A water-based substance that is not hazardous to the environment.
- Custom solutions - Fire suppression systems are designed, modeled, tested, and manufactured to satisfy the diverse needs of customers.
- Exclusive Technology (NFPA Approved)
- Quick installation
- The discharge piping distribution's flexible mounting
- Simple discharge piping distribution design, adjustable manual pull station, and gas valve mounting
- Mechanical system - The dry chemical agent does not require an N2 or CO2 cylinder to work.
- Multiple cylinders - The most cylinders (up to six) and the greatest space between them.
BENEFITS OF KITCHEN FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM
Straightforward and low-maintenance suppression systems provide efficient protection for kitchens in high-risk fire environments such as hotels, restaurants, and public institutions.
The system safeguards the duct, hood, and cooking equipment areas by utilizing a continuous cable that connects all cooking devices and strategically placed detectors. Each detector consists of four components: detectors, a bracket, two “S” links, and a fusible link.
- Linear heat sensing cable (110°C - 185°C) with automatic actuation valve
- Quick activation of the system ensures electrical/gas supply is shutoff immediately
- Suppresses fire by spraying wet chemicals on cooking appliances, plenum, filters and exhaust duct
- Quickly extinguishes fire by saponification, where the nozzle sprays wet chemicals on burning grease, which forms a soapy layer
- Acts as a formidable barrier between the hot surface and the atmosphere, by cutting off the oxygen supply
- Stainless steel container with wet chemical agent that cools the surrounding areas and prevent re-ignition/re-flash
- Includes battery back-up incase there’s a power shortage
- Steel tubing with a spray nozzle that comes with a provision for manual system activation
When it comes to designing our systems, we are fully aware of the fact that kitchen fires can range across various levels of danger and destruction. Our systems come in different capacities depending on the scale of the commercial kitchens. Additionally, our systems are also equipped with provisions of water assistance which can be activated a little after 5 minutes of actuation of the wet chemical cylinder from the same discharge pipeline.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Kitchen fire suppression systems are highly effective fire containment systems. Once a fire is detected, the system’s nozzles discharge wet chemicals from above the appliance. The wet chemicals cover the flames and starve the fire.
These hoods are needed to be installed above appliances that emit grease-laden fumes or smoke. They must include both automated and manual activation techniques. Wet chemical extinguishing systems (UL 300) and carbon dioxide extinguishing systems are the most popular.
Oil or grease fires (sometimes known as pan fires) Fires caused by electrical equipment.
A tiny multifunctional Wet Chemical fire extinguisher is ideal for keeping in your kitchen. It will extinguish most forms of fires; however, beware applying it over frying oil. This will enable you to either put out a little fire or help in your escape.
