Amerex Restaurant Fire Suppression System (EX 4658)
DETECTION NETWORK LIMITATIONS:
PRM DETECTION
Optimum fire suppression system performance relies on proper detection network design. This section
discusses the location, design and installation limitations.
The Amerex Zone Defense Fire Suppression System may use one of two detection methods. The first is a
PRM that uses a continuous piece of pressurized thermal sensitive tubing to provide the ultimate in
dependable fire detection.
No
cable,
No
corner pulleys,
No
detector bracket,
No
link holders,
No
fusible
links,
No
conduit offset, or terminal link connector to install. Simply run the pressurized thermal sensitive
tubing through the plenum of the hood and across the center of the hood duct opening. Fasten the tubing
securely every 18 inches (45.7cm) and you have provided protection the entire length of the hood. No matter
where the appliance is located under the hood, it is being watched by the PRM (Pneumatic Release Module).
In order to detect a fire in the duct, the tubing is required to be placed across the center of the hood / duct
opening or three sides of the hood duct opening. See page 4-5 of the manual for tubing routing and see PRM
Design & Installation Manual Part No. 16546, dated, March 2006, for installation instructions.
WARNING: DO NOT LOCATE TUBING DIRECTLY IN THE PATH OF GAS APPLIANCE EXHAUST FLUE GASES.
DOING SO COULD RESULT IN AN UNNECESSARY DISCHARGE OF THE SYSTEM.
MRM & LINEAR FUSIBLE LINK DETECTION
The second detection method is the use of a MRM or MRM II in conjunction with the Linear Fusible Link
Detection network. Due to the arrangement of the fusible links in the hood it is considered to cover the full
length of the hood, no matter where the fire may occur. This system is explained in Section 3, page 3-35 & 3-
36 of this manual.
SYSTEM INSTALLATION, TESTING, MAINTENANCE & RECHARGE
The installation of all components are outlined in Section 4, system testing is outlined in Section 5, system
maintenance is outlined in Section 6 and reset / recharge are outlined in Section 7 of this manual.
