Fire <br /> • extinguishing agents based on sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, potassium acetate and potassium <br /> • carbonate will cause saponification when discharged onto hot grease. Rendered animal fat and oils containing <br /> high percentages of saturated fat saponify better than cooking oils containing low percentages of saturated fat, <br /> SERIES DETECTOR: Any detector located between the Mechanical Release Module (MRM or MRM II) and <br /> the terminal detector. <br /> • <br /> SUPPLY LINE: That portion of the agent distribution network piping that runs from the agent cylinder <br /> assembly outlet or distributor block to the first tee. <br /> • SUPPLY BRANCH LINE: All pipe and fittings leaving the first tee in the system and ending with the last <br /> • nozzle in the last nozzle branch line. <br /> • TERMINAL DETECTOR: The last detector (or only detector) in the detection network. It is at this point that <br /> • the cable for the detection network ends or is terminated. <br /> • TEST LINK: This device is used in place of a fusible link in order to easily test the detection network. The test <br /> • link is easily cut, simulating a fusible link separating under fire conditions. It is usually located on the terminal <br /> Aik• detector and is used solely for test purposes. <br /> UPRIGHT BROILER: A cooking appliance using intense radiant heat and conductive heat with the foot and/or <br /> • the radiant heat source not being limited for a horizontal mode. Most of these cooking appliances incorporate <br /> a removable drip tray and may be used specifically for holding or warming foods. <br /> • VENT CHECK: A device installed in the actuation network that is used to safely relieve pressure and to <br /> • prevent a slow, unwanted build-up of pressure in the actuation network. <br /> ZONE of PROTECTION — A horizontal foot print below and within the perimeter of the hood, in which the <br /> • cooking appliances are to be positioned. The discharge nozzles within the "Zone of Protection" are spaced at <br /> • pre-determined intervals to provide protection for eligible appliances within the"Zone of Protection"without the <br /> need for re-aiming or repositioning of nozzles. An exception to this practice is for dedicated appliances such <br /> • as the upright broiler. Dedicated appliances require appliances specific nozzles protection, which will require <br /> • further review after movement of the appliance for possible re-aiming or repositioning of nozzle(s). <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> II • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br />
