ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 BPN: BFR-TM January 1, 2013 Chapter 1 General Information Chapter 1 - General Page 1 - I Revision 5 Introduction The Buckeye Fire Equipment Kitchen Mister Fire Suppression System is a pre-engineered wet chemical restaurant fire suppression system as defined by the NFPA-17A Standard for Wet Chemical Extinguishing Systems. It is designed to protect commercial restaurant cooking appliances, hoods, and ducts as described in this manual. Installation and maintenance of the Kitchen Mister System must be in compliance with the parameters set forth in this manual and be performed by a factory trained, Authorized Buckeye Fire Equipment Distributor. CAUTION This technical manual can in no way be considered sufficient to completely understand the proper design, installation, and/or maintenance of the Kitchen Mister System. Buckeye Certified Training is required to become Authorized to perform these procedures. Buckeye Fire Equipment will not be responsible for system(s) designed, installed, or maintained by individuals or companies not trained and Authorized by Buckeye Fire Equipment. How the Kitchen Mister Works The Kitchen Mister System utilizes a potassium based liquid fire extinguishing agent specifically designed for grease laden fires such as those associated with restaurant cooking areas. The Kitchen Mister agent works to suppress commercial kitchen fires in three ways: The agent interrupts the chemical chain reaction causing combustion, thus extinguishing the fire. The agent is discharged in a very fine mist, cooling the fire to below its auto-ignition temperature. The agent reacts with grease to form a foam-like layer commonly called saponification that starves the fire of oxygen, stopping combustion and preventing re-ignition. The system will automatically actuate upon detection of a fire or can be manually actuated by using a remote manual pull station positioned at the point(s) of egress from the hazard area. When the system is actuated, a pre-determined amount of fire extinguishing agent is discharged through the piping network and fixed nozzles to the duct, plenum, and cooking appliances. The agent is discharged as a very fine mist that quickly acts to suppress grease laden fires. System Temperature Limitations The operating temperature range of the Kitchen Mister System is 32°F (0°C.) minimum to 120°F (490C.) maximum.

It can also protect a round duct with a maximum circumference of 150" (381 cm) (47-1/2" (121 cm) maximum diameter). See Figure 3-1 and 3-2. Ducts Larger than 150" (381 cm) Perimeter For ducts with perimeters larger than 150" (381 cm), more than one Model N-2W nozzle must be used. When using multiple Model N-2W nozzles to protect a single duct, the cross sectional area of the duct must be divided into equal symmetrical areas. Each nozzle must then be installed in the center of the area it is protecting and aimed directly into the duct opening. No cross sectional area can exceed the single nozzle coverage. Transition Ducts Protection of any non-standard duct should be discussed and agreed upon with the local authority having jurisdiction before proceeding with any system installation. Typically, transition ducts are protected in the following manner. Larger to Smaller Duct Transitions To determine the proper coverage for ducts that have a larger opening into the plenum than the final exhaust duct, measure the perimeter of the duct half way between the largest and smallest cross sectional areas. The nozzle will be located as per standard duct coverage at the duct/plenum interface, rather than at the point of measurement, and pointed into the duct, aimed at the center of the final duct opening. See Figure 3.3, ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 MM - — — — — WAITO TRANSITION Figure 3.3. Proper Measurement And Nozzle Placement For Larger To Smaller Transition Ducts.

Plenum Protection Nozzle: N-1 HP (1 Flow Point) Coverage: Length: 12 feet (3.7 m) max. Width: 4 feet (1.2 m)max. Placement: See Figure 3.7. Aim point: See Figure 3.7. The Model N-IHP nozzle is a one (1) flow point nozzle that can protect a plenum (either single bank or V-bank) of 12 feet (3.7 m) in length and 4 feet (1.2 m) in width per nozzle. Larger plenums must be divided into 12 foot (3.7 m) sections, with each section protected with a separate nozzle. See Figure 3-7. Plenum: V-bank Nozzle Placement The nozzle must be located at the center of the V-bank width and down 1/3 of the vertical height, within 6 inches (15 cm) of the end of the plenum or plenum module and aimed down the length of the plenum. See Figure 3-7. Plenum: Single Filter Bank Nozzle Placement The nozzle must be located at a point that is 2" (5.1 cm) from the back edge of the filter and 1/3 of the vertical height of the filter, within 6 inches (15 cm) off the end of the plenum or plenum module and aimed down the length of the plenum.

Model N-IHP Plenum Nozzle Placement and Aiming Note: These examples are typical and do not represent every acceptable nozzle configuration, only a representative sample of them. Designer Note For plenums that exceed 12 feet (3.7 m) in length and therefore require multiple nozzles, it is recommended that the total length be divided into equally sized protection zones and protected accordingly. So a 16 foot (4.9 m) long plenum should be divided into two 8 foot (2.4 m) zones, with a nozzle protecting each, as opposed to a 12 foot (3.7 m) zone and a 4 foot 0.2 m) zone. BPN: BFR-TM Chapter 3 - System Design Page 3 - 3 Revision 5 APPLIANCE PROTECTION Each different appliance must be protected in a specific manner with regard to nozzle selection, placement, and aiming. No deviations from these parameters are allowed and failure to comply completely with these requirements will void the UL Listing of the system and may render the system ineffective. In order to properly understand this section, several key terms need to be defined in advance. DESIGN TERMINOLOGY Nozzle Height: The distance from the tip of the discharge nozzle to the top surface of the appliance (except for woks, in which case the bottom of the wok is used). Hazard Area: All nozzle coverages include the maximum size of the hazard area they can protect. Hazard area is NOT the overall size of the appliance being protected, but rather the actual size of the portion of the appliance used for cooking. Appliances Requiring Multiple Nozzles Some appliances may need to be protected by multiple nozzles because of their size. If the size of an appliance is larger than the approved coverage for that appliance, multiple nozzles must be used. This is accomplished by dividing the hazard area into individual zones that comply with the parameters of the listing for that appliance. In this case, each zone will be protected as an individual appliance with respect to nozzle placement and aiming.

ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 BPN: BFR-TM January 1, 2013 Chapter 3 - System Design Page 3- 13 Revision 5 PIPING LIMITATIONS This section contains detailed piping limitations that are necessary to design the piping network for The Buckeye Fire Equipment Kitchen Mister Fire Suppression System. Because the system is of the pre-engineered type, maximum and minimum piping parameters have already been established for each cylinder size. No variations to these limitations are allowed under the UL Listing. The maximum and minimum pipe length for each size agent cylinder is based on total internal pipe volume, regardless of the diameter of the pipe used. All piping parameters are based on total system piping and do not make a distinction between branches and supply line piping. Note: Pipe and fittings must be furnished by the installer. Pipe shall be Schedule 40 black, chrome plated, or stainless steel pipe. Fittings shall be rated 150 lb (68 kg). PIPING VOLUME CHART Allowable Pipe Sizes Volume Per foot 3/8 in. (17.1 mm OD) pipe 37.5 mL./ft. (123mLim) 1/2 in. (21.3 mm OD) pipe 59.8 mL./ft. (196mLim) Example: 20 feet (6.1 m) of 3/8" (17.1 mm OD) pipe is equal to 750 mL. of pipe volume [20 ft. (6.1 m) X 37.5 mL./ft. (123mL/m) = 750 mL.). MAXIMUM PIPING PER CYLINDER SIZE Max. Max. Pipe Max. Pipe Cylinder Flow Volume Vol. Between Size Points (mL.) any two (2) Nozzles. (mL.) BFR-5 5 1500 1000 BFR-10 10 2500 2000 BFR-15 15 2800* 2500 BFR-20 20 2800* 2500 * Total volume of 3/8" (17.1 mm OD) piping allowed on the BFR-15 or BFR-20 is 2500 mL. Minimum Piping Requirements Note: Minimum piping requirements ONLY apply when protecting a wok, deep fat fryer, or range. Minimum number of elbows before the closest nozzle protecting a fryer, range, or wok shall be five (5). The minimum piping volume before the closest nozzle protecting a fryer, range, or wok shall not be less then 360 mL. The total system pipe volume shall not be less then 660 mL. for all cylinder sizes. A system shall have a minimum of three (3) flow points. General Piping Requirements All piping must be either 3/8" (17.1 mm OD) or 1/2" (21.3 mm OD). The maximum number of elbows allowed per system are: BFR-5: 20 elbows maximum BFR-10/15/20: 25 elbows maximum The maximum number of elbows between any two nozzles is five (5). The maximum vertical rise of the supply line is 10 feet (3 m), this is either the maximum elevation difference between tank outlet and the highest nozzle or tank outlet and the highest or lowest point in the piping system. The maximum vertical rise of any nozzle above the supply line is 2 feet (0.6 m). No traps are allowed in the piping system. Note: A "trap" is defined as a section of pipe that would allow liquid to accumulate, such as, either a low point in the piping layout or piping that extends past the last discharge point. When different sized piping is used in the same system, the largest diameter pipe must be closest to the cylinder and sizes are to decrease as they reach the nozzle. So piping always runs from larger to smaller diameter. Elbow(s) or swivel adaptors used at the nozzle for aiming DO NOT count toward the total elbows allowed per system or the number of elbows between two (2) nozzles. For the BFR-15 and BFR-20 only, the maximum volume of piping between the nozzle nearest the supply line from one branch to the closest nozzle from the next branch shall not exceed 500 mL. BPN: BFR-TM ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Chapter 3 - System Design Page 3-14 1 0.- ) Revision 5 DETECTOR PLACEMENT Detectors (fusible links) are required to be placed in the air stream of each appliance (one detector per appliance) and in the opening of the exhaust duct(s) of protected ventilation hoods. Detectors shall be located in the plenum area of the ventilation hood behind the filters, which provide protection for the detection system. Exhaust Duct Detector Placement Each exhaust duct must have at least one (1) detector installed. The detector is to be centered in the duct entrance and no more than 12" (30.5 cm) into ductwork. Cooking Appliance Detector Placement Each cooking appliance with a continuous cooking surface area of less than 48" (122 cm) x 48" (122 cm) must be protected by one (1) detector. The detector is to be located over the surface of the appliance and in its air stream when the ventilation system is turned on. Cooking appliances with continuous cooking surfaces larger than 48" (122 cm) x 48" (122 cm) must be protected by multiple detectors, using one detector for every 48" (122 cm) x 48" (122 cm) of continuous cooking area. Exception: If a cooking appliance or appliances are located under a duct opening where a detector has been mounted, it is not necessary to utilize an additional detector as long the duct detector is not more than 12" (30.5 cm) into the duct opening.

This chapter will only cover the various aspects of installation associated specifically with the Kitchen Mister System. Additional training in both mechanical and electrical systems is required for proper system installation and training in these areas is solely the responsibility of the distributor. Various components required for system installation such as pipe, pipe hangers, conduit (EMT), conduit straps, wiring, mounting hardware, and the like are not furnished by Buckeye Fire Equipment and must be provided by the installing distributor. CAUTION This technical manual can in no way be considered sufficient to completely understand the proper design, installation, or maintenance of the Kitchen Mister System. Buckeye Certified Training is required to become Authorized to perform these procedures. Buckeye Fire Equipment will not be responsible for system(s) designed, installed, or maintained by individuals or companies not trained and Authorized by Buckeye Fire Equipment. CYLINDER INSTALLATION Before attempting cylinder installation it is important to assure that you have the correct bracket assembly for the selected cylinder: Cylinder Bracket Assembly BFR-5 Model MB-1 BFR-I0II5I20 Model MB-2 WARNING The cylinder valve assembly is shipped with an anti- recoil plate covering the discharge outlet. The anti- recoil plate must remain in place until the discharge piping is connected to the valve. The cylinder must be vertically mounted. See Figure 4-1. The wall used to mount the cylinder must be sufficiently strong to support the cylinder weight. Mount the bracket using lag bolts, making sure it is level. Loop the cylinder strap loosely over the top of the cylinder as shown below. Hook the bottom rim of the cylinder into the bracket. Allow the mounting strap provided to slide into the two top grooves of the bracket and around the cylinder. Tighten the strap securely around the cylinder. The bracket can not be fastened to dry wall or other such material, if this type of wall is encountered a stud must be located and the bracket fastened to it. Figure 4-1. Cylinder and Mounting Bracket Installation Pipe and Nozzle Installation Any foreign substance left in the piping network (i.e., cutting oil, dirt, metal shavings, etc.) have the potential to clog the nozzles upon system discharge. For this reason all pipe must be thoroughly cleaned before installation. The following procedure should be used when installing piping and nozzles: Check pipe threading dyes to assure that they are cutting properly. After cutting, all pipes sections are to be reamed and the pipe cleaned. Teflon tape should be used for all pipe connections. Starting at the SECOND thread from the end, wrap the tape clockwise around the threads working away from the pipe opening. BPN: BFR-TM ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Chapter 4 - System Installation Page 4 - 2 Revision 5 DO NOT over-tighten piping, using a pipe wrench make sure all piping is snug. If a section of pipe is over-tightened, it must be completely removed, the Teflon tape must be removed and re-applied, and the section be reinstalled. Make sure all piping is secure by using the appropriate pipe hangers and/or straps. Before installing nozzles, blow all piping out with dry air or nitrogen to assure no foreign material is left in the piping system. Install all nozzles in accordance with Chapter 3 of this manual. Be sure that the blow off cap provided with each nozzle is in place. Note: Make sure to explain to the owner of the system the importance of nozzle caps (i.e., to keep debris out of the nozzle and prevent clogging) and that they should be checked daily to assure they are in place SYSTEMS RELEASING MODULE INSTALLATION Mounting Systems Releasing Module Directly to Cylinder Valve The Systems Releasing Module, Model SRM (or Model SRM-D) can be installed directly onto the cylinder valve if desired. Four mounting screws are required for fastening the Systems Releasing Module to the top of the cylinder valve; these screws are provided with the cylinder assembly. SRM SET )- I- VALVEISRM INTERFACE GASKET SYSTEMS RELEASING MODULE 114(0.6 ).20 7718 (2.2 cm) SOCKET HEAD SCREW (4) C After mounting the cylinder, align the mounting holes in the control head base with the holes in the interface gasket and cylinder valve. With the interface gasket in place and using all four mounting screws provided, mount the Systems Releasing Module firmly onto the cylinder valve using a 3/16" (0.5 cm) Allen wrench. See Figure 4-2. Wall Mounting of Systems Releasing Module The Systems Releasing Module, Model SRM (or Model SRM-D) can be wall mounted and used to pneumatically actuate a maximum of five (5) agent cylinders. For remote cylinder actuation, the Systems Releasing Module must be mounted directly to a wall using four screws. The four knockouts in the back wall of the Systems Releasing Module must be removed and the resulting holes used to secure the unit to the desired wall. No bracket is required for mounting the Systems Releasing Module in this manner. After firmly mounting the Systems Releasing Module to a wall, a Model BFR-CAP Valve Cap Assembly (ordered separately) must be installed on all agent cylinders being remotely actuated. Four mounting screws are provided with the Valve Cap Assembly for fastening the Valve Cap Assembly to the top of the cylinder valve. A 3/16" (0.5 cm) Allen wrench is required for tightening the mounting screws. The Systems Releasing Module is then connected to each agent cylinder using 1/4" (0.6 cm) OD copper tubing. Option #1: Single Cylinder Activation The (4) mounting screw holes in the bottom of the Systems Releasing Module must be filled. The Systems Releasing Module Connection Kit includes four (4)1/4 (0.6 cm)-20 x 7/8" (2.2 cm) socket head screws to accomplish this. See Figure 4.3. Mount the Systems Releasing Module to a wall as described above. Mount the agent cylinder making sure not to exceed the maximum length of tubing allowed. Install a Model BFR-CAP Valve Cap Assembly on the agent cylinder valve. Connect the Systems Releasing Module to the agent cylinders using 1/4" (0.6 cm) OD copper tubing. Figure 4-2.

Note: If Buckeye Shielded Cable is not used for system controls, a combination of Buckeye Shielded Cable and 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit with corner pulleys or just 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit and corner pulleys are also approved. In general, Buckeye Shielded Cable is attached at one end to the System Releasing Module with a Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface, run to where it needs to be terminated (hood, gas valve, or pull station), and connected at the other end with another Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface. See Figure 4-5. The Shielded Cable Interface holds the outer flexible conduit and allows the 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable to pass through. It connects to any standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) conduit type connection fitting, such as a corner pulley or conduit connector.

See Figure 4-6. 1116"(0.16 cm) STAIN STEEL C Figure 4-6. Buckeye Shielded Cable To install Buckeye Shielded Cable follow these guidelines: 1. Determine which input or output lines Buckeye Shielded Cable will be used for: Fusible Link Detection Line Gas Valve Line Remote Pull Station Line Mount the Buckeye Shielded Cable to either end of the line, and run the cable in the manner it will be installed, either back to the Systems Releasing Module or to the termination device (plenum, gas valve, or pull station). BSC must be securely mounted with a clip or tie- down at least every four (4) feet (1.2 m). Pull enough 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable through the terminated end to allow for termination at BOTH ends of the line. Example: When connecting a gas valve to the control head with Buckeye Shielded Cable, first connect the cable to the gas valve using a Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface, then run the cable back to the Systems BPN: BFR-TM Chapter 4 - System Installation Page 4 - 5 Revision 5 Releasing Module. Then, pull enough of the 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable through the gas valve side of the cable to allow for connection of BOTH the gas valve (at one end) and the Systems Releasing Module (at the other end). 5. The Buckeye Shielded Cable can now be cut at the end opposite of where the excess 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable has been pulled through. To cut the cable, use a sharp, heavy duty, cable cutter and cut through the entire piece of Buckeye Shielded Cable, both the outer flexible conduit and the inner cable, at the location desired. See Figure 4-7.

Cutting Buckeye Shielded Cable Note: Buckeye Shielded Cable must ALWAYS be cut complete with the 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable inside the outer flexible conduit. Push the 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable back through the flexible conduit until there is enough on both ends to make proper terminations. The stainless steel cable can then be used for connection to Systems Releasing Module, pull station, gas valve, or fusible link line. Minimum Bend Radius - Buckeye Shielded Cable When installing Buckeye Shielded Cable the minimum acceptable bend radius is 9" (23 cm) and each bend must be preceded and followed by at least 1 foot (.3 m) of straight cable run.

CAUTION Buckeye Shielded Cable CAN NOT be looped or coiled during installation. After a cable bend a minimum of one foot of straight cable is required. Excess cable must be cut off and not looped or coiled. Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface Installation The Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface is required for connecting Buckeye Shielded Cable to 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit type fittings, such as 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit connectors and corner pulleys. To connect Buckeye Shielded Cable to the Shielded Cable Interface, simply insert the outer flexible conduit into the larger opening on one side of the Shielded Cable Interface, tighten the set screw (using a 3/32" (0.24 cm) hex wrench), and push the 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable through the smaller opening on the other side. See Figure 4-9. Figure 4-9. Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface Installation Detail After installing the Shielded Cable Interface, it can now be attached to any standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit type connection, corner pulleys, and 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit unions. The 1/16" (0.16 cm) cable can then be connected to the desired mechanism (i.e., the SRM ratchet, the gas valve, fusible links, and mechanical pull station to name a few). See Figure 4-10.

Limitations are as follows: Fusible Link Line Limitations Conduit and corner pulleys used with standard 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable to connect System Releasing Module to plenum: Max. No. of Detectors: 20 Max. Length of Conduit: 150 feet (45.7 m) Max. No. of Corner Pulleys: 35 ONLY Buckeye Shielded Cable used to connect System Releasing Module to plenum: Max. No. of Detectors: 10 Max. Length of BSC: 35 feet (10.7 m) Max. No. of Bends: 6 Conduit and corner pulleys with standard 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable in combination with Buckeye Shielded Cable used to connect System Releasing Module to plenum: Max. No. of Detectors: 10 Max. Length of Conduit: 25 feet (7.6 m) Max. No. of Corner Pulleys: 8 Max. Length of Buckeye Shielded Cable: 35 feet (10.7 m) Max. No. of Bends in BSC: 6 Note: The maximum number of transitions from BSC to conduit or conduit to BSC is 6. Note: The use of Fusible Link Holders in the plenum area does not affect fusible link line limitations. Globe ML Style fusible links are used for automatic actuation of the Kitchen Mister System and must be installed in the plenum area of the ventilation hood (for proper link placement see Chapter 3 of this manual). Fusible Link Line Installation Steo #1: Determine if fusible link brackets and conduit will be used in the plenum area: The Kitchen Mister System is approved: 1. With conduit and fusible link brackets in the plenum area. 2. Without fusible link brackets and conduit in the plenum area when filters are present, thus providing mechanical protection for the fusible link line. If fusible link brackets and conduit are used in plenum area: Although fusible link brackets and conduit are only required for applications where no filters are present in the ventilation hood, they can be used for all applications if desired. Once the decision has been made to use fusible link brackets and conduit in the plenum area, begin by installing the detector brackets in the plenum area of the ventilation hood over each appliance and in each duct opening as described in Chapter 3 of this manual. Connect the fusible link brackets using 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit and conduit connectors. A Buckeye corner pulley is required for each change in conduit direction. The conduit will exit the plenum area through an approved liquid tight hood seal. The detection line can now be run back to the Systems Releasing Module. If fusible link brackets and conduit are not used in plenum area: For installations where filters are present in the ventilation hood, fusible link brackets and conduit ARE NOT required in the plenum area. Install a single bracket at the top of the far end of the plenum, approximately 3 inches (7.6 cm) in from the far wall and in line with the center of the duct opening. This bracket is not used to center a fusible link, but rather as a termination point for the fusible link line cable. After mounting the terminal bracket, use another bracket as a template, making sure it is also in line with the duct centerline, to determine the location of the hood penetration on the other end of the plenum. Install an approved liquid tight hood seal in the hole in the far end of the hood. See Figure 4-17. The terminal bracket is the only bracket required for this application. The fusible links will be attached directly to the detection line in the plenum area in their appropriate locations (see Chapter 3 for proper fusible link placement). No additional brackets are required. The detection line can now be run back to the Systems Releasing Module.

Terminal Bracket Installation For Systems without Brackets or Conduit in Plenum Area Fusible Link Line Installation Steo #2: Determine how the fusible link line will be connected to the Systems Releasing Module from the plenum: There are three (3) approved methods by which the fusible link detection line can be run from the Systems Releasing Module to the plenum, they are: Using standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit and a corner pulley for each change in direction. Using ONLY Buckeye Shielded Cable. Using a combination of Buckeye Shielded Cable and 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit / corner pulleys. Note: Buckeye Shielded Cable CANNOT be attached directly to the hood penetration device used to seal the plenum area, a corner pulley and/or six (6) inches (15 cm) of standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit must be placed in between the Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface and the plenum. OPTION #1: Using 1/2" 0.3 cm EMT Conduit and Corner Pulleys 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit can be used to connect the fusible link line in the plenum area to the Systems Releasing Module. A Buckeye corner pulley is required whenever a change in conduit direction is necessary. The conduit is connected to the Systems Releasing Module through a knockout in the upper right-side corner. 1/16" (0.16 cm) stainless steel cable can now be run through the conduit system from the Systems Releasing Module to the plenum area. OPTION #2: Using only Buckeye Shielded Cable Buckeye Shielded Cable can be used to connect the fusible link line in the plenum area to the Systems Releasing Module. When using this option, only the stainless steel cable that comes with Buckeye Shielded Cable can be used. Note: Refer to the Buckeye Shielded Cable Installation Guidelines section of this chapter for details. The Buckeye Shielded Cable is connected to the Systems Releasing Module through a knockout in the upper right-side corner. Install a standard conduit connector in the knockout hole. Then connect a Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface to the end of the section of Buckeye Shielded Cable to be used. Connect the Buckeye Shielded Cable Interface to the conduit connector installed in the knockout. The Buckeye Shielded Cable can then be run to the plenum area. Note: A corner pulley and/or six (6) inches (15 cm) of standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit is required between the Buckeye Shielded Cable and the liquid tight seal installed in the plenum. OPTION #3: Using a Combination of Buckeye Shielded Cable and Conduit and Corner Pulleys Buckeye Shielded Cable can be used in combination with 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit to connect the fusible link line in the plenum area to the Systems Releasing Module. Note: Refer to the Buckeye Shielded Cable Installation Guidelines section of this chapter for details. BPN: BFR-TM ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Chapter 4 - System Installation Page 4- 12 Revision 5 For all portions of the detection line that use conduit instead of Buckeye Shielded Cable, a Buckeye Corner Pulley is required whenever a change in conduit direction is necessary. CAUTION A corner pulley and/or six (6) inches (15 cm) of standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit is required between the Buckeye Shielded Cable and the liquid tight seal installed in the plenum.

Series Link Installation Fusible Link Line Installation Steo #3: Installing the fusible links in the plenum area: Fusible links can be installed in the plenum area of the ventilation hood either with or without the use of Buckeye Model FLH-1 Fusible Link Holders. Note: A minimum of three inches of travel towards the SRM must be maintained between a conduit connector and the cable crimp or fusible link holder. OPTION #1: Installing fusible links when fusible link brackets and conduit ARE used: When fusible link brackets and conduit are used in the plenum area, attach the terminal link to the far end of the fusible link bracket with an "S' Hook (see Figure 4- 18). The "S' Hook should be crimped closed after installation. After installing the terminal link, a tight loop is then make in the cable and secured with the crimp provided. It is attached to the other end of the terminal link and fed through the conduit to the next bracket. This cable is then used to connect the remaining series links. Each link must be centered in the detector bracket. See Figure 4-19. FUSIBLE LINK BRACKET S HOOK Figure 4-18 Terminal Link Installation After the last link is connected, the control head can be put in the set position as described in the next section of this chapter. ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Fusible Link Installation Using Fusible Link Holders: If Buckeye Fusible Link Holders are used, make sure to leave 4" (10 cm) of slack in the fusible link line cable per fusible link. This method is recommended because it requires fewer cuts and crimps in the fusible link line and allows fusible links to be easily moved to assure they are in the correct position. Attach the fusible link line to the terminal bracket by making a tight loop in the fusible link cable and securing it with the crimp provided. This loop is then connected to the far end of the terminal bracket using an 5" Hook. The "S' Hook should be crimped closed after installation.

OPTION #2: Installing fusible links when fus- ible link brackets and conduit ARE NOT used: When fusible link brackets and conduit are NOT used in the plenum area, begin the fusible link installation at the terminal bracket which has already been installed. The detection line is run through the hood quick seal, through the larger hole in the near end of the terminal bracket, and attached to the far end of the terminal bracket using an "S' Hook. The "S' Hook should be crimped closed after installation. See Figure 4-23. _FUD =ON LINE OF Figure 4-23. Fusible Link Line Termination in Plenum Starting at the far end of the plenum, determine the location of the first fusible link (for proper link placement see Chapter 3 of this manual), cut the cable at the desired location and install the first fusible link as shown in Figure 4-24.

Fusible Link Line Installation Fusible Link Holders can now be installed starting at the terminal bracket and working toward the Systems Releasing Module. This is accomplished by looping the cable through the opening in the Fusible Link Holder and hooking the fusible link on the loop. See Figure 4-21. The hole in the fusible link can now be hooked onto the bottom of the holder as shown in Figure 4-22. Fusible links can be positioned by sliding the Fusible Link Holder along the detection line before it is completely tensioned to the desired position. After the last link is connected, the Systems Releasing Module can be put in the set position as described in the next section of this chapter. Note: The system is approved for use with or without the use of fusible link holders. Buckeye Fire Equipment recommends their use to minimize the number of connections made in the fusible link system thus lessening the possibility of unwanted discharges Remote Pull Station Installation The Model RPS-M Remote Mechanical Pull Station must be used for remote actuation of the Buckeye Kitchen Mister System. It is to be located near and exit in the path of egress from the hazard area and no more than five feet above the floor. It can be connected to the Systems Releasing Module as follows: Using standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit and a corner pulley for each change in direction. Using ONLY Buckeye Shielded Cable. Using a combination of Buckeye Shielded Cable and 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit / corner pulleys. After mounting the remote pull station in the desired location, the stainless steel cable can be connected as described above. The cable then enters the pull station box through any convenient knockout and fed through the bushing and attached to the pull handle with the crimp provided. See Figure 4-27. (Shown with Buckeye Shielded Cable.) ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 BPN: BFR-TM January 1, 2013 (0, Gas Valve Installation Restaurant systems that protect gas fueled appliances are required to shut off the gas flow upon system activation; this is accomplished by the use of a mechanical gas valve. This valve is installed in the gas supply line that feeds the cooking appliances. Note: An arrow on the valve body shows the direction of gas flow through the valve. After the valve is installed in the gas line, it can be connected to the Systems Releasing Module as follows: Using standard 1/2" (1.3 cm) EMT conduit and a corner pulley for each change in direction.

Gas Valve Installation Setting the Systems Releasing Module After installing the fusible link line, pull station line, and gas valve line, the Systems Releasing Module can be connected and put into the "set position". Step #1: Connecting the Remote Pull Station Cable. After installing the Remote Mechanical Pull Station cable, feed cable into the Systems Releasing Module through the top right knockout as shown. Feed cable through the hole in Manual Release Lever and remove the excess Cable. Install a cable crimp and loop the cable back through the Crimp so that NO loop is exposed. There should be approximately 1" (2.5 Cm) of cable left between the Crimp and the Manual Release Lever. See Figure 4-29. PFMflTF PUt U C.ARI F MANUAL RELEASE LEVER Figure 4-29. Mechanical Pull Station Cable Connection BPN: BFR-TM ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Chapter 4 - System Installation Page 4- 16 Revision 5 CAUTION The Manual Release Lever's movement MUST NOT be restricted or impeded by the Remote Mechanical Pull Station cable. After installing cable, check that the Manual Release Lever engages properly with the Detection Ratchet. Failure to do so could result in the detection line not engaging correctly. Step #2: Connecting the Fusible Link Line. After installing the fusible link line cable, feed cable into the Systems Releasing Module through the top right-side knockout as shown. See Figure 4.31. Pull all the excess slack from detection line. Note: If using Fusible Link Holders, all holders and links must be installed prior to removing excess cable. Pull the cable to the opposite end of Systems Releasing Module and cut the cable. The cable can now be connected to the fusible link ratchet wheel. This can be accomplished two different ways: Option #1: Install a crimp at the end of the fusible link cable and insert the crimp in the center slot of the fusible link ratchet wheel. It is not necessary to use the hole provided in the fusible link ratchet wheel when this method is used. Make sure to leave enough free cable to allow for two complete wraps around the ratchet wheel when the line is tensioned. See Figure 4-30. Option #2: Slide the detection cable through the hole in the fusible link ratchet wheel and crimp the end of the cable, making sure to leave enough free cable to allow for two complete wraps around the ratchet wheel when the line is tensioned. See Figure 4-30. o o /0 O FEED DETECTION CABLE fCRMIMP N CABLE THROUGH HOLE IN FACE OF THEN SLIDE INTO SLOT RATCHET THEN CRIMP CABLE Figure 4-30. Two Methods of Connecting Fusible Link Line to Fusible Link Ratchet Turn the Fusible Link Ratchet clockwise by hand to take up any remaining slack in the fusible link line.

Removing Additional Slack CAUTION Do not over tighten the detection line once the Detector Arm Assembly has come in contact with the stop and has fully engaged the Catch. Step #4: Before Setting the Systems Releasing Module. Make sure the Detection Arm is against its STOP. Refer to Figure 4-33. Check the Catch to make sure it is moving freely and properly engaged with the Detection Arm. Refer to Figure 4-33. CTION EMBLY CATCH ENGAGED Figure 4-33. Fusible Link Line in Set Position Firmly push the Detection Arm to the left with your finger to remove any additional slack from the detection line; this will remove any additional slack from the fusible link line (see Figure 4-33a). Caution: DO NOT push on the Manual Release Lever. If the Detection Arm moves away from its STOP position, rotate the Fusible Link Ratchet until the Detection Arm JUST touches its STOP position again. Repeat this procedure until the Detection Arm cannot be moved from the STOP position when pushed with your finger. Make sure that all fusible inks and Fusible Link Holders are in their proper position. If fusible links or Fusible Link Holders are not positioned correctly, release the tension from the fusible link line, reposition the fusible links, and repeat this procedure. Make sure that the crimp on the end of the Remote Pull Station line is about 1" below the Manual Release Lever. Refer to Figure 4-29. Step #5: Setting the Systems Releasing Module. 1.

Step #7: System Checkout after Installation. Before putting the system into service all components shall be checked for proper operation, including, the actuation of a nitrogen cartridge. Disconnect the Systems Releasing Module from the cylinder valve by removing the four screws securing the SRM to the top of the valve and separate. DO NOT lose or damage the Interface Gasket because it will be required to reconnect the SRM. If the SRM is mounted remotely, remove all Model BFR- CAP(s), Valve Cap Assembly from each of the cylinder valve(s) by unscrewing the four mounting screws and remove them from the cylinder valve(s). CAUTION Failure to disconnect the Systems Releasing Module or Valve Cap(s) from the cylinder valve(s) prior to the test firing of the nitrogen cartridge will cause system discharge. Attach a Test Valve Assembly onto each Valve Cap Assembly. (See page B-2 of this manual). Install a Nitrogen Actuation Cartridge as described in Step #8, Installing the Nitrogen Activation Cartridge (page 4-20 of this manual). To check the satisfactory operation of the fusible link system, cut the terminal link or the 5" Hook attached to the terminal link. This will release tension on the fusible link line causing the following to occur: i. The Systems Releasing Module will operate, causing the detection arm assembly to move back to the left, disengaging the trigger, and allowing the actuation lever to operate. The actuation pin will puncture the nitrogen cartridge and allow the nitrogen gas to discharge through the bottom of the SRM or B FR-CAP(s). The pressurization indicator of each Test Valve Assembly (when used) will be fully extended and there are no leaks in the copper tubing. The gas valve will close, stopping gas flow to any gas fueled appliances. All auxiliary devices connected to the miniature electrical switch(s) provided in the Systems Releasing Module will have operated. BPN: BFR-TM ULEX 6885 ULC-EX 6885 January 1, 2013 Chapter 4 -System Installation Page 4 - 20 Revision 5 V. If the Systems Releasing Module does not operate when the terminal link is cut, determine the cause of the problem and repeat this step. CAUTION If any of these events do not occur when the terminal link is cut, determine the cause of the problem and repeat this step. DO NOT put the system into service until the cause of the problem is determined, the appropriate steps are taken to solve the problem, and the system is successfully re- tested. 6. Remove the used Nitrogen Actuation Cartridge and discard immediately. 7. After testing the fusible link line, repair the terminal link and re-set the control head as described in this chapter. 8. Once the Systems Releasing Module is reset, the mechanical pull station must be checked.

Model BFR-OM Owners Manual A Kitchen Mister Owner's Manual (Model BFR—OM) is supplied with every cylinder or can be purchased separately. The Owners Manual must be given to restaurant owner or the restaurant owner's designated representative after system installation is complete (as per NFPA 17A Standard for Wet Chemical Extinguishing Systems and NFPA 96 Standard For Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations.) and thoroughly reviewed with them. Tee Pulley Installation The Model BFR-TPI Tee Pulley is used to connect two CAUTION The Model BFR-TP1 Tee Pulley must never be used to connect two fusible link lines to the System Releasing Module. (2) remote pull stations and/or two (2) mechanical gas valves to a single Systems Releasing Module. When a tee pulley is used to connect two (2) gas valves or mechanical pull stations to a single Systems Releasing Module, it is considered two (2) corner pulleys when calculating system limitations. A tee pulley that is used to connect two (2) gas valves can only be used on gas valves with similar stem travel. The following combinations are acceptable: Two 3/4" (2.0 cm) valves. Two of any combination of 1" (2.5 cm), 1-1/4" (3.2 cm), or 1-1/2" (3.8 cm). Two 2" (5 cm) valves. Two of any combination of 2-1/2" (6.4 cm) or 3" (7.6 cm) valves. To install the tee pulley, the cable proceeding from the Systems Releasing Module must enter the branch (side outlet) of the tee pulley. Proper installation is as shown in the following diagram.

Flexible Hex Driver The Model BFR-FHD is a flexible 3/16" (0.5 cm) hex wrench that is used to facilitate the tightening of the hex screws used to connect the Systems Releasing Module to the cylinder valve. NOTE: The flexible end of the hex wrench should only be used to start the screw, final tightening must be done with the rigid part of the hex wrench to insure a tight seal between the SRM and cylinder valve. See Figure B.7. CAUTION Failure to properly tighten hex screws may cause system failure.

Model BFR-KPIN Keeper Pin In order to properly secure the Systems Releasing Module with the Keeper Pin, follow these steps: Unscrew nitrogen cartridge completely from manifold block and set aside or discard if out of date. The Keeper Pin hole is located above Catch (See Figure B-7). Once the keeper pin has been located, insert the BFR-FHD (or 3/8" Drive ratchet and 3/16" Hex bit) into Detection Arm and rotate to the right so that the detection Arm comes in connect with mounting block. See Figure B-b. laiD (UNDR) HEX WRENCH] Figure B-b. Keeper Pin Location Figure B-8. 3. Insert the Keeper Pin into the keeper pin hole and Model BFR-UBC slide the hook of the Keeper Pin over the Detection Nozzle Cap Installation Arm. The Keeper Pin hook must engage the Detection Arm completely. See Figure B-1 1. NOTE: Because of the high heat this type of nozzle cap may be exposed to, the Model BFR-UBC and 0-ring must be inspected semi-annually. The cap must be removed, cleaned and checked to assure it slides easily on and off the nozzle body. If the cap does not slide easily off the nozzle tip, the 0-ring and cap must be replaced. Keeper Pin For the Model SRM and Model SRM-D Systems Releasing Module, the Kitchen Mister System uses a proprietary keeper pin (Model No. PTF10426) to Figure B-lI.
