Fire Suppression Systems

All Spring Air hoods can be factory pre-piped with a WC, PF, and PT surface fire suppression system. The WC is a fusible link activated, wet chemical with a mechanical gas valve. The PF is a fusible link activated, Piranha system with a mechanical gas valve. The PT is a thermostatic Fenwal activated, Piranha system with an electrical gas valve. The fire suppression cylinder can be shipped loose for field installation or mounted in a cabinet on the end of the hood. The final hookup is completed by a factory trained, certified technician.

The Piranha system provides complete hood coverage for any appliance lineup. The appliances (except salamander broiler, upright broilers, or other appliances requiring close proximity nozzles) can be relocated under the hood and only the fusible link detectors must be relocated. The PT, piranha system with Fenwal detectors provides the most flexible fire suppression system. The appliances (except salamander broiler, upright broilers, or other appliances requiring close proximity nozzles) can be relocated under the hood with not changes to the fire suppression system. We recommend the Piranha systems be connected to a building sprinkler system.

Spring Air Systems pre-piping includes single stainless drops from the roof of the hood to each appliance to conceal interconnecting piping. Each nozzle includes a swivel head. All factory piping meets all local and national code requirements.
