TANK - Fire Suppression




Electronic Detection - Wet Chemical Suppression

TANK Fire Suppression uses electronic fire detection and activation paired with traditional wet chemical fire suppression agent to quickly and accurately suppress fires.

Features at a Glance
Firestat - An electronic, solid state firestat reliably detects fire in the system. If TANK detects a temperature above 360°F or a rapid rise in temperature, the firestat contacts will close, energizing the fire system.

Electric System with Battery Backup - In the event of a power outage, TANK uses a battery backup to disrupt all appliances through electric gas valves and shunt trip breakers. TANK's battery backup also powers fire monitoring, detection, and suppression.

Microprocessor Based Control - Instant notification of problems with the system

TANK Control Board - TANK's control board provides all of the necessary monitoring, timing, and supervision functions required for reliable operation. If a fault is detected, an alarm will periodically sound and the "Fire System Activated" light will flash a fault code. The unit's display screen will show the specific fault detected.

Independent Supervised Loops - The supervised loops incorporate both redundancy and fault detection. The firestat and manual activation device are connected to the loops.

24/7 Monitoring - System pressure is monitored at all times to ensure suppression tanks are full of agent and ready to discharge.

Overlapping Protection - Overlapping nozzles installed no greater than 24 inches apart and 40–45 inches above the cooking surface ensure an even and overlapping spray throughout the hazard zone.

Simplified Nozzle Design - Each nozzle has a metal foil cap to keep the nozzle tip free of grease build up, allowing for quick discharge and reliable fire protection.
