PYROCHEM TYPICAL INSTALLATION

  1. CYLINDER CONTROL HEAD: Integral design requires no separate release pressure cylinder- separate wire cable activation lines for automatic fusible link and optional remote pull station provide an added measure of safety - an easily accessible manual release mechanism which provides an option to the automatic fusible link and, depending on local codes, can be used in place of a remote manual pull station - unique fool proof technique for achieving necessary input wire cable tension.
  2. PIPING: Unbalanced piping network simplifies application design and installation - no separate piping to connect system pressure cylinders to extinguishing agent container. Schedule 40 stainless,chrome-plated and black pipe can be used.
  3. CYLINDERS: (DOT-4B-175 Rated) - Contain Pyro Chem Potassium Carbonate Solution stored at 175 psi~ - pressure gauge for visual maintenance checks - 2.40, 3.50, and 5.50 gallon sizes provide 8, 13, and 20 flow point coverage respectively, offering a broad range of application coverage.
  4. NOZZLES: Fixed and Swivel head nozzles have been established to relax placement tolerances.
  5. REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION: Simple operating instructions with a double action release avoids careless system discharge - a 100' wire cable run with 1/16 inch cable and 17 corner pulleys maximum or 3/64 inch cable and 20 corner pulleys maximum allows mounting flexibility - a dedicated wire cable input line to the cylinder control head provides a true back-up in the event thermal links are fouled.
  6. FUSIBLE LINK KITS: Accommodates both series and terminal placement to minimize inventory and simplify ordering - all necessary components included for efficient assembly and installation - a 350ø F fusible link standard - other temperatures available - 15 fusible links on a 100' wire cable run with 20 corner pulleys maximum provides substantial hazard coverage.
  7. AUTOMATIC GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE: Complies with requirements pertaining to the shut-off of fuel as described by NFPA 17A - after regular maintenance/service check can be reset at control head for convenience of service technician - a 50' wire cable run with 15 corner pulleys maximum provides mounting flexibility.
  8. CORNER PULLEYS AND ACCESSORIES: Designed to ensure reliable system function, as tested by Underwriters Laboratories.
