FryerTrace is a compact, automatic detection and suppression system that will protect your kitchen 24 hours per day.

 

The system is installed over the cooking appliances, hidden

inside the exhaust hood and can only be used in kitchen applications in e.g nursing homes, air-bases, student accommodation, refugee camps, apartments etc.

 

The system is a stored pressure type system and is actuated by

Firetrace automatic detection tubing.

 

The system uses steel discharge tubing to a fixed nozzle, mounted in the exhaust hood and aimed at the cooking surface, to ensure smooth and equal distribution of the extinguishing agent.

 

The system automatically detects and reacts to a fire and a

pressure switch turns off the energy supply to the cooking

appliance and exhaust hood and/or generate a remote alarm.

 

Extinguishing Agent:

 

The agent is a potassium solution in water, is pH neutral, non toxic, not corrosive or hazardous but very effective for rapidly extinguishing, cooling, smothering and sealing a fire in oil or grease.

 

The agent, in combination with hot oil/grease will start a

chemical reaction know as saponification. This creates a thick ‘foam’ like a blanket which separates the oxygen from the fuel, smothers the fire and cools the surface.

 

The system comes complete with all the necessary connections for detection tubing, pressure switch and steel tubing.
