The following manufacturers have quality kitchen fire suppression systems:
R102 Fire Suppression System:
ANSUL R-102 Fire Suppression Systems discharge ANSULEX®
Liquid Fire Suppressant, quickly knocking down flames and cooling
hot surfaces, while generating a tough vapor securing blanket that helps prevent reflash. With a nearly neutral pH, ANSUL R-102
systems are exceptionally friendly to cooking equipment.
ANSUL R-102 systems are offered in two basic designs: appliance-specific, in which nozzles are aimed at specific hazard areas of
each appliance; and overlapping, where nozzles are arranged to overlap and provide a “fire-free zone” throughout a group of appliances. Depending on the kitchen line-up, your trained
ANSUL distributor can design, install and service a system that
offers the ultimate protection for specific facilities.
Applications Best Suited for Ansul
R-102 Fire Suppression System
- Diners
- Fast-Food Chains
- Retail Food Courts
- Convenience Stores
- Hotel Kitchens
- School, College, and University Cafeterias
Piranha Fire Suppression System:
The only agent-plus-water fire suppression hybrid on the market today,
ANSUL PIRANHA systems outperform all conventional single-agent
systems on a number of fronts. ANSUL PIRANHA systems attack fire using the rapid flame knockdown and securing capabilities of
PRXTM Liquid Fire Suppressant. Then, the superior cooling effects of
water follow, quickly cooling the cooking media and further helping to
prevent reflash.
 In UL300 testing, the ANSUL PIRANHA system cooled hot grease
15 times faster than single-agent wet systems, required 60% less
chemical agent, covered hazard areas better and provided a
cost-effective means to protect the cooking equipment.
ANSUL PIRANHA systems are available in various sizes that can be
combined for multiple configurations to expand the suppression
system coverage. Depending on your type of facility, your ANSUL
PIRANHA distributor will design a system that offers you the
ultimate in fire protection.
ANSUL® PIRANHA®
systems employ the best firefighting attributes
of two extinguishing agents...
- The fast flame knockdown and securing power
of wet chemical.
- The fast cool-down capability of water.
Tests using the “Double-Agent” Concept
have shown dramatically increased firefighting
performance…
- Twice the coverage of conventional single-agent
systems
- Cools down cooking oils 15 times faster than
wet chemical systems
- Flexible overlapping nozzle coverage for most
appliance arrangements
- Smaller and fewer agent storage tanks required
per system

Amerex offers two systems to meet the industry's varying needs.
 Amerex KP Restaurant Fire Suppression System
The Amerex KP Restaurant System is a pre-engineered, wet
chemical, stored-pressure type with a fixed nozzle agent distribution network. The system agent is Amerex KP liquid fire suppressant, a potassium acetate based solution that suppresses cooking grease
fires both through saponification and cooling. The agent has a
pH of 9 or less and does not harm stainless steel surfaces.
When a fire starts, the detection network, consisting of fusible links or pneumatic tubing, will
automatically detect the fire or the manual pull
station can be used, releasing a low pH agent
throughout the hood, duct and onto the appliances.
Either method of actuation will interrupt gas or
electrical power to the appliances preceding system discharge. The Amerex KP agent quickly suppresses the fire
and cools the fuel while securing the vapors with a smothering foam reaction.
Applications Best Suited for Amerex KP Restaurant Fire Suppression System
- Casual Dining
- Fast-Food Chains
- Cruise Ships
- School Cafeterias
Amerex ZD Restaurant Fire Suppression System 
The Amerex ZD Restaurant Fire Suppression adds greater flexibility by letting you reconfigure a kitchen or move appliances without moving nozzles. Because of its adaptability, this system is the most cost effective choice over the life of the system. Applications Best Suited for Amerex ZD Restaurant Fire Suppression System
- Casual Dining
- Fast-Food Chains
- Cruise Ships
- School Cafeterias

(converting it into
combustion-resistant soap)
• The cooling effects of
water vaporization
• Interrupting the chemical chain
reaction of combustion
Typical Appliances
Protected:
- Ventilation
- Fryers
- Char-Broilers
- Ranges
- Woks

provide 24-hour protection.
- Dedicated manual pull station allows
immediate actuation at the first sign of fire
and provides backup to the automatic
detection system.
- Premium extinguishing agent provides rapid
flame knockdown and helps prevent re-ignition.
- Pressurized D.O.T. rated steel cylinders
ready for release in the event of a fire.
- Pressure gauge on the agent cylinder allows
visual inspection of system status.
-
Fully assembled and 100% tested
mechanical control head, cylinder valve,
and gas shut-off valve provide reliable
operation.
-
Flexible piping configurations allow for a
streamlined design that will not interfere
with kitchen workflow. The system can be
mounted in out-of-the-way areas to preserve
valuable kitchen space.
