GENERAL INFORMATION
The Amerex KP Series Restaurant Fire Suppression System Is designed and has been tested to provide fire
protection for commercial cooking soperations covering the hood, ducts, plenum and appliances. Amerex KP
Systems are a pre-engineered type as defined in NFPA 17A - Standard for Wet Chemical Extinguishing Systems. It is manufactured by the Amerex Corporation, Trussville, Alabama.
It is essential that all installations of the Amerex KP Series Systems be performed in compliance with this
manual. Those individuals responsible for the design, installation, operation and maintenance of the
Amerex KP Restaurant Fire Suppression System must be trained by Amerex and hold a current
Amerex KP Certificate. All piping limitations, nozzle coverages, detector placements, etc. have been proven
and established through exhaustive testing by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Use of components other than
those referenced in this manual, or Installations exceeding limitations stated in this manual will void all of the
Amerex KP Series System listings.
LISTINGS:
The Amerex KP Series is a listed pre-engineered restaurant fire suppression system. The KP system is listed
with Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. - USA per UL 300 fire test specification; Underwriters Laboratories of
Canada, Inc. per ULC/ORD 1254.6 - 1995 and Loss Prevention Certification Board - UK per LIPS 1223 rev. B. Testing required for listings under these standards involve live fire tests under specific conditions involving
commercial kitchen hoods, ducts and appliances. Each test fire is allowed to reach its maximum intensity
before agent is discharged. Each test was repeated using both maximum and minimum piping, variations in
agent storage cylinder pressure to simulate maximum-and minimum temperature ratings. Duct fire tests were extinguished with fans off and fans on; dampers open and closed. Splash tests for various appliances were
conducted to assure that discharge of the agent would not cause excessive splashing of hot grease to provide
greater employee safety during commercial cooking operations.
UL Standard 300 introduces a series of tests by specifically addressing the use of high efficiency fryers,
ranges, woks and the unique fire extinguishing challenges that these appliances present.
DESIGN:
The Amerex KP Series Pre-Engineered System consists of mechanical and electrical components to be
installed by an Authorized Factory Trained and Certified Amerex KP Systems distributor. The system is
composed of an agent cylinder/discharge valve charged with Amerex KP Liquid Agent and a Mechanical
Release Module (MRM) or Pneumatic Release Module, (PRM). The quantity of detectors, fusible links,
nozzles, corner pulleys, pulley tees and manual pull stations will vary depending on kitchen design.
The system operates either automatically if actuated by a detector or manually if actuated by a manual pull
station. Upon system operation, energy sources for the cooking appliances are required to be shut off
immediately. Electrical shutdown devices or suitable gas valves are referenced In this manual. Other
equipment such as audible/visual signaling devices can be added where required.
The Amerex KP System suppresses fire in commercial cooking equipment by spraying KP liquid agent in a
predetermined manner onto cooking appliances and Into exhaust ducts, filters and plenum areas. The
primary means of fire suppression is either by saponification of surface grease or by cooling the surface of
oils and hot metal surfaces with fine droplets of agent, reducing the temperature of the oil and appliance
below the auto-ignition point.
Upon system discharge, the exhaust fans should be left on to aid in dispersal of the liquid suppressant that
results in cooling the plenum and duct. Any integral make-up or supply air must be automatically shut off
along with all cooking appliances. Some local Authorities Having Jurisdiction may require exhaust fans to be
shut down by the fire suppression system. Check local fire codes and requirements in the specific area that
the system is being installed.
The Amerex KP System agent storage cylinders and cartridge shall not be installed in environments below
P 32° F or above 120° F (00 C to 490 C).

0 DETECTION NETWORK LIMITATIONS: MRM
Optimum fire suppression system performance relies on proper detection network design. This section
discusses the type of detectors used, their selection, placement and design limitations.
The Amerex KP Restaurant Fire Suppression System MRM uses a continuous cable, corner pulleys, detector
bracket, detector linkage, fusible links, conduit offset, terminal link connector and a temperature-measuring
device.
The quantity of detectors to be used in a system will depend on the number of ducts, number of appliances
and the location of the appliances under the hood.
DETERMINING DETECTOR LOCATION AND NUMBER OF DETECTORS
In order to detect a fire in the duct, a detector is required to be placed in the center of the duct, either at the
duct opening or up to 12 inches into the duct. If it is mounted into the duct, the bracket cannot shield the
fusible link from the hot vapors moving through the duct.
Every appliance under the hood that is being
protected by the suppression system must
have a detector placed over it and positioned
within the path of exhaust vapors.
WARNING: DO NOT LOCATE DETECTORS
DIRECTLY IN THE PATH OF GAS APPLIANCE
EXHAUST FLUE GASES. DOING SO COULD
RESULT IN UNNECESSARY DISCHARGE OF
THE SYSTEM.
GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF DETECTION
NETWORK:
Maximum of 24 corner pulleys. (either style)
Maximum of 20 detectors (any combination of temperature settings).
Maximum of 120 feet of cable on the detection network.
No pulley tees are allowed.
Remote manual pulls are not allowed on the detection network.

Every Amerex KP Restaurant Fire Suppression System installation must have at least one manual pull
station. The manual pull station network consists of cable, corner pulleys, pulley tee, manual pull station(s)
and optional conduit offset.
GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF MANUAL PULL STATION NETWORK
Maximum of 20 corner pulleys per manual pull station
Maximum of 130 feet of cable per manual pull station
Maximum of I pulley tee per network (counts as one corner pulley for each manual pull station)
Maximum of 1 conduit offset per network (must be attached to the MRM and before tee pulley when chosen)
NOTE: Manual pull stations should be installed no higher than 48 inches from the floor and must be
along a path of egress. Consult the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for the final
approval for manual pull station quantity, locations and mounting height and other
considerations prior to finalizing manual pull station mounting details.

MECHANICAL GAS VALVE APPLICATIONS
The PRM or MRM closes the mechanical gas valve immediately upon system discharge. A pneumatic and
mechanical action in the gas trip assembly pulls on a cable attached to the mechanical gas valve, unlatching
the valve and allowing an internal spring within the valve body to provide the closing force. Connection of the
cable from the valve to the PRM or MRM under tension maintains the gas valve in an open position.
MECHANICAL GAS VALVE
A mechanical gas valve trip assembly must be used with any
mechanical gas valve. The gas valve trip assembly (PIN
12740) is included with all Amerex manufactured gas valves
AwKX PART NO. 12740 but must be ordered separately for use with gas valves listed
in this manual supplied by other manufacturers.
See Section 3 "System Components" for all mechanical gas valves that
are suitable for use with the Amerex Restaurant Fire Suppression
System. The use of any other mechanical gas valves will avoid the UL
listing for the system installation. All of the listed valves have female NPT
threads. The location of the gas valve should be accessible and approved
by the local Authority Having Jurisdiction. A contractor licensed and
qualified for such work should perform installation of the mechanical gas
valve into the gas line.
MECHANICAL GAS VALVE ACTUATION NETWORK LIMITATIONS
The mechanical gas valve actuation network consists of cable, corner pulleys, pulley tee, gas valve and
conduit offset.
GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF MECHANICAL VALVE NETWORK
Maximum of 20 corner pulleys per mechanical gas valve of any listed type in KP Manual
Maximum of 130 feet (39.6m) of cable per mechanical gas valve of any listed type in KP Manual
Maximum of I pulley tee per network (counts as one corner pulley for each mechanical gas valve)
Maximum of I conduit offset per network (must be located It pneumatic release module and before tee pulley
when chose)
