SYSTEM DESIGN . .
General
Pyro-Chem Industrial Open Face Paint Spray Booth Fire
Suppression System has been designed and tested for use
in open face paint spray booth applications. The guidelines
fisted in this chapter deal with the limitations and parameters
of various system configurations. It is the responsibility of
the Certified installer to ensure that the proper system
design is being utilized, and that the system meets the limi-
tations and parameters listed in this chapter. Before attempt-
ing to design any system, it is necessary to attend a Factory
Certification Training Class and become Certified to install
Pyro-Chem Industrial Open Face Paint Spray Booth Fire
Suppression Systems. Because it is impossible to complete-
ly understand every aspect of a pre-engineered system sim-
ply by reading the Technical Manual, Pyro-Chem will not be
responsible for system design, installation, or maintenance
performed by any non-Certified person(s).
Choosing the Proper Agent
It is necessary for the system designer to consider the com-
bustible material found in the hazard area to ensure proper
protection. The agent used in the system must be approved
for the hazard class of the combustible material. The follow-
ing are the hazard classes:
Class - Ordinary solid carbonaceous combustibles.
These include wood, paper, cloth, fiberglass, and plastics
Class- Flammable liquids and gases. These include
paints, solvents, gasoline. Oils, and hydraulic fluids.
Class - Electrical appliances. ThOse include comput-
ers, power generators, and power transformers.
Choosing the Proper Type of System
It is necessary for the system designer to consider the
physicaL characteristics and iayoutof the hazard. area to
ensure proper protection The hazard area must meet the
criteria for a particular system for that system to be effective
The hazard area must be protected in accordance with
NFPA17 for proper protection. The following guidelines are
used to determine the proper system for a hazard:
Local Application - Overhead . ThisSystem is used for
applying agent toan area from above the area. The maxi-
mum nozzle height foroverhead protection is10.5 feet for
ABC coverage. ,.
Total Flooding - ThiS system is used to fill a..-volume:with
agent to protect any hazad within that volume. Total flood-
ing systems require that an enclosure be present around the
hazard area to allow the system to build up the proper con-
centration of agent within the hazard area.
The Pyro-Chem Model N-SCR screening nozzle has been
tested and approved by Underwriters Laboratories for
unclosable openings. The nozzle will protect an area eight
(8) feet wide at a height of twelve (12) feet
p.
The ventilatiOn system must be shut down before or simulta-
neously with the discharge of the system.

Detector Placement
Thermal detectors are required in all hazard areas protected
by the Pyro-Chem Open Face Paint Spray Booth Industrial
Fire Suppression System if automatic system operation is
required. Either mechanical or electrical thermal detectors
can be used for automatic system operation. Mechanical
detectors (fusible links) are used in conjunction with the
Pyro-Chem Models MCH3 and NMCH3 control devices.
Electrical detectors are used in conjunction with the Pyro-
Chem Models ECH3-24 and ECH3-120 Control Heads.
A temperature survey must be performed to determine the
maximum ambient temperature of the hazard survey. The
detectors used to protect a hazard area must be at least
70°F above the maximum ambient temperature.
The minimum number of thermal detectors (either mechani-
cal or electrical) required for each hazard area is one detec-
tor for each twenty-five (25) pounds of agent required in that
hazard area. To determine the number of detectors required
in a particular hazard area, divide the total amount of agent
required for that hazard area by 25 and round up. Keep in
mind that at least one detector is required in every protected
hazard area.
Additional detectors may be used to achieve faster system
response; however, do not exceed the detector limitations
outlined in this manual.
For detector location, evenly divide the protected hazard
area into protected zones, with the number of protected
zones equal to the number of detectors. Located a detector
at the top center of each protected zone.

FUSIBLE LINK DETECTOR
INSTALLATION
Fusible links are always used in conjunction with the Model
.MCH3/NMCH3 Mechanical Control Head. After mounting
the cylinder and control head, the fusible link line can be
installed. The first step to installing the fusible link line is to
install the detector bracket(s). These brackets must be
installed in the plenum area, hazard area, and in each duct.
See Chapter III for detector placement guidelines.
Note: Only ML-style Fusible Links can be used.
Connect the fusible link brackets together using 1/2" conduit
and the conduit connectors supplied in the detector kit
(Model FLK-1/1A). A Pyro-Chem corner pulley must be used
whenever a change in conduit direction is necessary. The
conduit is connected to the control head through a knockout
in the upper left-side corner.
In general, fusible links centered in the detector brackets are
connected in series using 1/16" diameter stainless steel
cable. The spring plate in the control head maintains ten-
sion on this series of fusible links. if the tension is released
for any reason (i.e., a fusible link separates), the control
head will operate and actuate the system. Maximum limita-
tions for the fusible link detection line are as follows:
Fusible links can be installed with or without fusible link
hangers (see Chapter Il for description).

NOTE: Control Head Models MCH2, NMCH2, MCH, ECH,

TP-1, SBP-1, and CBP-1 pulleys with the below limitations.
If the MCH3 and NMCH3 use any of the CP-1, WCP-1, TP-1,
and MCP-1 pulleys within the system, then the below limita-
tions must be used.

1. Fusible Link Installation Without Hangers.
Begin installing links at the terminal bracket. The link is con-
nected to the far side of the terminal bracket using an S" hook.
The "S" hook must be crimped closed after the link is installed.
A tight loop is then made in the cable and secured by the crimp
provided. This loop is connected to the other side of the termi-
nal link (see Figure 4-6) and the cable fed through the conduit
to the next bracket. The cable proceeding from the terminal link
will be used to connect the series links (see Figure 4-7). Series
links must be centered in their detector brackets.

2. Multiple Cylinder Installations.
A. Multiple Cylinder Actuation Using MCH3/ECH3/NMCH3
Control Head.
The Model MCH3/ECH3/NMCH3 Control Head can be used
to pneumatically actuate a maximum of three (3) agent cylin-
ders. When a control head is used for multiple cylinder
actuation, it cannot be mounted directly onto a cylinder
valve. The control head must be installed remotely using a
Model MB-P2 Control Head Mounting Bracket. The bracket
must be anchored to the wall using bolts or lag screws.
In order to actuate the agent cylinder(s) from a control head,
a 1/4" NPT x 450 1/4" flare type fitting (conforming to SAE
J513c) must be screwed into the base of the control head
actuator. Also, a Model PDA-132 Pneumatic Discharge
Adaptor must be installed on the valve of each agent cylin-
der. Pneumatic tubing is then used to connect the control
head to the PDA-D2 of each agent cylinder valve. See
Figure 4-3.
NOTE
Pneumatic tubing used for remote cylinder actuation
shall have an outside diameter of 1/4" with a minimum
wall thickness of 1/32". This is commonly known as
refrigeration-type copper tubing. All tubing fittings shall
be of the 1/4", 450 flare type conforming to SAE J513c.
Compression type fittings are not acceptable.
b. A single Model MCH3/ECH3/NMCH3 Control Head can
actuate:
One (1) or two (2) agent cylinders with a maximum of
eight (8) feet of pneumatic tubing.
Three (3) agent cylinders with a maximum of six (6) feet
of pneumatic tubing.
B. Multiple Cylinder Actuation Using Model PAC-10 or
PAC-200 Pneumatic Actuation Cylinder.
The Model PAC-10 or PAC-200 Pneumatic Actuation
Cylinder must be used if more than three (3) agent cylinders
require simultaneous actuation. The Model PAC-10/200 must
be used in conjunction with a Model MCH3/ECH3/NMCH3
Control Head. The control head is mounted on the Model
PAC-10/200 valve assembly.
The Model PAC-10/200 is shipped complete with a mounting
bracket. The cylinder must be mounted vertically with the
nameplate facing out. The bracket must be securely
anchored to the wall using bolts or lag screws. The wall to
which the bracket is attached must be sufficiently strong to
support the pneumatic cylinder. The bracket should never be
fastened to dry wall or similar material. If this type of wall is
encountered, studs must be located and the bracket fas-
tened to them. See Figure 4-4.
