The Ansul 1N Nozzle & Cap for the R-102 Fire Suppression System is a pivotal component designed to offer efficient fire suppression across a variety of cooking appliances. This versatile nozzle is apt for use with salamander broilers, upright broilers/salamanders, gas-radiant/electric char-broilers, and electric char-broilers, ensuring extensive protection in diverse cooking settings.
For salamander broilers, the 1N nozzle is capable of protecting areas measuring up to 15 in. by 31 in. It should be installed to the side of the cooking chamber, above the grate, and aimed at the center of the grates to ensure optimal protection.
While upright broiler/salamander protection typically uses two 1/2N nozzles, the mention of the 1N nozzle in this context highlights its importance in the comprehensive fire suppression strategy for various cooking appliances.
For gas-radiant/electric char-broiler protection, the 1N nozzle can safeguard hazards up to 36 in. in length and cooking areas not exceeding 864 in². Its flexible positioning within the perimeter of the cooking area, always aimed at the center of the cooking surface, underlines its effectiveness.
Similarly, for electric char-broilers, it protects areas up to 34 in. in length and cooking areas not exceeding 680 in², with the same positioning and targeting guidelines.
Additionally, the 1N nozzle serves as the plenum nozzle, demonstrating its vital role in the Ansul R-102 system. This application emphasizes the nozzle's adaptability and its crucial contribution to maintaining safety in commercial kitchens by addressing various fire hazards associated with cooking equipment.
This balance between flexibility in application and precision in fire suppression underscores the 1N nozzle's indispensable role in the Ansul R-102 fire suppression system, providing reliable and tailored protection for commercial kitchens.
