Kitchen Suppression Systems and Clogged Detection Lines

- Have you ever wondered what the kitchen suppression system does and how it works? Checkout the following video of a trained and licensed suppression manager explain one of the most common suppression deficiencies, a clogged detection line.
Great video. Unfortunately a lot of service companies just replace links and never cut test anything. Even worse, some just replace their tags to the ones with new dates and go.
I am about to disassemble an ansul fire suppression system. I found this video to be super helpful in understanding how this system works. thank you
learning about all that engineering is fascinating. i always wondered how those fire suppression emergency systems worked?
Why isn't there a fusible link in the duct?
Great educational video !
Thats why you should probably test end of line first. I mean that's what the book from ansul says to do.
he did test the end of line its called the terminal sensor
What certification you need to inspect systems like that
WHERE IS THE CONNECTION WITH FIRE ALARM PANEL?
Why you say connect your appliances on ceriesl I guess it's on parallel to the contractors
Didn’t use locking bar before screwing out cartridge
Lock bars are for scaredy cats who don’t trip systems. Me and my team don’t ever use lockout bars.
Hi , Please you repeat procedure spanish . The excelent explain . I need all visual complete prosedure , the all
you didn't say anything about the alarm?
No protection on the opening.. a link must be install above every equipment and duct opening.. .
I think this is a training/demo system. But yes.
How do you reset the system
You need a Ansul tension resetting tool to reset the automatic & manual actuation pulley wire lines
Where Is duct Link
You could use a zip tie for a test link.
Why would you do that? Just use a test link or a real link.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
he is using wrong detection bracket . those detector bracket are for Range guard. you must use Ansul system detector or Ansul will not responsible for that.
I agree that you’re correct but it’s a useless fact.
The bracket being the wrong brand will not affect system operation.
these detector are used all across the uk with no issues Ansul them self have no issues with these detectors
You are using wrong detector. Those detector are not for Ansul system
I'm a trained Ansul engineer in the uk this detector are correct. usless the only ones you have see are the old horse shoe ones that are now out dated and need to be replaced
Hi sir how are you
Hello sir how are you. Sir my system is ansul pirhana. My problem is how to fix manual release and fuse ablelinks rope fixing in mechanical realease medole how to fix fuseable link cable???
Please reply me very soon
Yes if you still need help . Let me know as well
Your question is too vague to answer. “How to fix” isn’t specific enough.
get a trained Ansul engineer to do it? there the only one that should be touching a system

Hmmm... that detection line did not get that way in 6 months. The service company is NOT doing their job right. What happened to the REQUIRED detector in the exhaust duct just left of the end of line detector? In addition, the scissor links are NOT suppose to be positioned up in the bracket as shown. They are supposed to hang down freely. This also helps prevent additional drag on the cable for proper operation.
To keep the scissor from falling off the cable, using a weight like vise grips to weight the cable without actually gripping the cable on the end of line detector, allowing it to move freely. This way, there is always some tension on the scissors so they don't fall apart while installing the other fusible links on the detection line. Every service, 6 months or more frequently, depending upon kitchen operation whereas grease build up is greater than normal. This may include restaurants open 24 hours with char broilers or Chinese Woks for example. Somebody needs to go back to ANSUL school. I have been installing and servicing "ANSUL" type of restaurant systems since 1982 and in this video the service company providing the service is doing a dis-service to our professional service technicians. Go to the fire system manufactures training school to know how to do it right, or not all.
"Install the linkage and the correct ANSUL approved fusible link in the remainder of the detector brackets. Make certain all detector linkages are positioned against either the front or back upper lip of the formed detector bracket."
That is directly from the ANSUL manual. Might I suggest you follow your own advice and go back to ANSUL school?
Boom! Yes Stephen is correct! They do belong inside the detector housing just not straight up. Either front or back has a lip indent that the detector belongs in to prevent slag, the link detector is not suppose to be outside just hanging as the weight, vibration , and or cable can be running against something and could accidentally be cut/frayed overtime or damaged and you could have a accidental discharge.
However , the rest of your information is correct. I have been testing,installing and selling Ansul systems for 10 years. Also was the department manager and sales person for service and contracting sales for the largest company in Arizona. Almost a million in Kitchen suppression system sales alone in a fiscal year .
You criticize them without any specifics except the scissors hanging down (of which you’re incorrect- because the Ansul book requires them to be tucked upward into the brackets )
This guy did a great video, but probably need to exercise more. He sure was breathing heavily throughout.
Pepper Williams you might have a fitness body...
the scissor isn't even crimped to stay on the line. Poor guy is going to sweat all day looking for the scissor that falls after testing.
I've seen "crimped" scissors cause cable fraying on the detection line, that's a terrible reccomendation. A technician should not spend time searching for the missing scissor either. After a system discharge due to a fire, the scissor containing the fusible link that separated should be replace as well as any other scissors exposed to extreme temperatures. ALL links should then be replaced.
Don’t crimp the scissors!
My team has had 20 system dumps per year and no issue with finding the scissor.
Besides that, if the scissor is missing then you just install a new one.
Good job reading a paper. Just be real and talk to us brother.
