UL-300 Wet Chemical Automatic Fixed Fire Suppression Systems "Wet chemical fire-extinguishing systems shall comply with
standard UL 300, Fire Testing of Fire Extinguishing Systems for Protection of
Restaurant Cooking Areas... Hazards and equipment that can be protected
using wet chemical extinguishing systems include the following: Specialized automatic systems, often referred to as Restaurant Fire Suppression systems, are designed to protect the following areas associated with cooking equipment; ventilating equipment including hoods, ducts, plenums, and filters; 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 typically utilized in restaurants, hospitals, nursing homes,
hotels, schools, airports, and other similar facilities.

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 PRX™ Liquid Fire Suppressant. Then, the superior cooling effects of water follow, quickly cooling the cooking media and further halping 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 also available with fully self contained water units to simplify installation, especially in areas where the minimum 33 psi water-pressure is not available (only 22 psi required for some smaller systems). The Self-Contained Water Supply offers three minutes of water discharge to help assure hot oils and greases remain well below re-ignition temperatures.
ANSUL PIRANHA systems are available in various sizes that can be combined for multiple configurations to expand the suppression system covered.
Kidde Wet Chemical Systems exceed the UL-300 standard. This new standard is brought about by the evolution of new cooking trends and appliances that operate at higher temperatures. Kidde Systems also comply with NFPA 96 and 17A standards.
| Superior wet agent for quicker flame knockdown and faster fire suppression. |
| Quicker after-fire cleanup. |
| Unmatched coverage that uses fewer discharge nozzles and flow points to protect the hazard. |

Cooking appliances today allow for the potentially dangerous mixture of flammable oils and greases with high efficiency heat sources, creating an environment in which fire is always a threat. Ventilating systems deposit grease from exhausted vapors throughout the hood, filters and ducts. Electrical power lines and gas service lines add fuel to the hazard area, and must be shut off in case of fire. Alarms and other electrical devices must be activated. The Pyro-Chem KITCHEN KNIGHT II system can protect all these diverse hazard areas and perform all the necessary auxiliary functions.
