KIDDE WET CHEMICAL FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS


Click here to see how your kitchen system works


Hot cooking surfaces, round the clock operations, high efficiency appliances. Today's commercial cooking facilities have all the elements necessary for devastating fire disasters that can shut down a food service establishment for a day, a month, or forever.

That's why the engineers at KIDDE have introduced the next generation in commercial cooking fire suppression.

THE KIDDE WET CHEMICAL SYSTEM.

Your insurance company and local fire authorities will like the KIDDE system because it exceeds the tough UL-300 standard. Your managers will appreciate that the KIDDE system installs out of sight, remains on duty around the clock and uses a fire suppression agent that minimizes after clean-up operations.

But owners and operators of commercial cooking facilities will quickly come to realize the biggest benefit of the new KIDDE system... it's ability to rapidly detect and suppress fire in any type of cooking appliance before there is extensive damage or a costly business interruption.

QUICKER AFTER-FIRE CLEANUP

Simply use a damp cloth to wipe away the foamy KIDDE wet chemical agent residue as soon as the appliances are cool and you're back in business.

COST EFFECTIVE COVERAGES

The KIDDE system offers unmatched coverage that uses fewer discharge nozzles and flow points to protect the hazard area, resulting in more efficient fire suppression with less hardware cost.

EXCEEDS UL 300

The stringent standard of performance brought about by the evolution of new cooking trends and appliances that operate at higher temperatures. KIDDE systems also comply with NFPA 96 and 17A, and other regulatory and insurance requirements
SUPERIOR WET AGENT

The KIDDE wet chemical agent provides quicker flame knockdown and faster fire suppression, while blanketing the hazard area with a thicker saponification layer to prevent fire re-flash



A PRECISE FIT FOR EVERY APPLICATION

KIDDE's flexible pre-engineered design concept, coupled with the widest array of cylinder sizes in the industry, enable KIDDE engineers to offer the most effective, efficient protection for every type of cooking appliance... fryers, range tops, griddles, broilers, woks as well as hood and duct systems.


ON DUTY - OUT OF SIGHT - KIDDE's systems blend seamlessly into any decor thanks to a flexible design concept that maximizes nozzle placement options and minimizes piping while offering a choice of black steel or stainless steel piping or stainless steel tubing.


AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL OPERATION - Choose from three types of actuaters, the KIDDE KRS-50 control box that pneumatically discharges up to five cylinders; the KIDDE mechanical control head, a reliable spring loaded device that uses fusible link technology to trigger the KIDDE system; or the electrical control head using any normally-open electric contact device ( ie electric heat detectors ) An optional KIDDE manual pull station is also available.

WORLDWIDE KIDDE SERVICE - Every KIDDE system is backed by the KIDDE reputation for quality and a worldwide network of KIDDE Pre-engineered systems distributors who install and maintain your KIDDE system, supported by direct access to factory assistance and genuine KIDDE parts.



HOW YOUR KITCHEN SYSTEM WORKS

1. Fire is detected by HEAT DETECTORS which activate the KIDDE KRS-50 CONTROL BOX. ( or the MANUAL PULL STATION is activated ).... causing the CYLINDER VALVE TO OPEN.

2. - Pressure stored in the CYLINDER propels the KIDDE WET CHEMICAL through the SYSTEM PIPING and out of strategically located NOZZLES onto the fire, the KIDDE SYSTEM automatically shuts off appliances to remove the heat source.

3. - KIDDE WET CHEMICAL knocks down flames quickly and forms a protective layer that suppresses fire and prevents fire re-flash.


 


GAS STATIONS


KIDDE DRY CHEMICAL FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS

THE PROBLEM:
Fire incidents in GAS STATIONS, especially self service stations.

THE SOLUTION:
KIDDE Dry chemical Gas Station Fire Systems, pre-engineered for the gas station fire hazard!
Fire incidents in passenger- vehicle filling stations are on the increase. The current popularity of self-service gas stations brings more customers in contact with filling apparatus, and creates the possibility of more ignition sources such as open flames, cigarettes, or sparks. Even driving away with the nozzle in the tank can cause a spill fire.

Customers and vehicle occupants are in serious danger in the event of a spill fire. That's why many authorities having jurisdiction are requiring AUTOMATIC FIRE PROTECTION FOR THESE DANGER AREAS. Any such protection needs to aid and enable vehicle occupants to exit the vicinity of the hazard. Small spill fires must be extinguished.


The KIDDE Dry Chemical Gas Station Fire System has been custom - designed to fulfill this need. The system is pre-engineered, meaning easy, modular - design flexibility. Whether it's a multi-product dispenser on a single island, or many dispensers and multiple islands, the KIDDE system can handle it. The system design includes many features which are important to the customer, station owner and operator, insurance company, and authority having jurisdiction.
