The kp system
In either automatic or manual actuation the system works in this manner:
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.
combination of the Amerex KP system and an Amerex Model B260 or B262 Wet Chemical extinguisher provides restaurants with a “ONETWO” attack against the threat of business loss due to cooking operation fires.
