GAS CARTRIDGES
The R-102 system uses gas cartridges to store nitrogen or
carbon dioxide expellant gases under pressure until the system
is actuated, at which time the cartridge seal is punctured and
the released gas expels liquid agent from one or more tanks
through the discharge piping and out the discharge nozzles.
Four nitrogen gas cartridges and three carbon dioxide gas car-
tridges are available as shown in Figure 13.
Cartridges noted as TC/DOT are both Transport Canada (TC)
and Department of Transportation (DOT) approved. Cartridges
noted as DOT are Department of Transportation approved only.
Cartridge selection options are provided in Section 4 under
Tank and Cartridge Requirements.

NOZZLES
There are 11 types of discharge nozzles each designed to
distribute the liquid agent in a uniform pattern throughout the
hazard area:
1. 1/2N Nozzle
7. 245 Nozzle
2. 1F Nozzle
8. 260 Nozzle
3. 1W Nozzle
9. 290 Nozzle
4. 1N Nozzle
10. 2120 Nozzle
5. 2W Nozzle
11. 3N Nozzle
6. 230 Nozzle
Although these nozzles are similar in appearance and have
certain common parts, the tip of each nozzle is designed for a
specific application and must only be used in those areas. See
Nozzle Application Chart in Section 4 – System Design, for
individual nozzle usage. Nozzles are shipped with metal blow-
off caps included.
A 25 pack of Nozzle O-rings (Part No. 439848) is also available.
