SPECIFICATIONS:
Fire Protection – Completely self contained ANSUL® R-102
system includes ANSUL® tank, nitrogen cartridge, ANSUL®
sopanifier, piping, heat sensors, ANSUL® drops, nozzles, and
movable manual pull station. Manual pull can be relocated to
the egress position or an additional station can be added by an
authorized ANSUL® representative. Front access for easy fire
system maintenance. Fire protection system meets NFPA 96
Chapter 13. Fire protection system must be charged and certified
by ANSUL® Authorized distributor after installation and before
first use (operator’s responsibility).
Filtration – Completely self-contained filtration process reduces
emissions below that allowed in NFPA 96 and ANSI UL710B using
the EPA 202 test method and includes stainless steel grease baffle
filter with grease cup, fiberglass pre-filters, HEPA (High-Efficiency
Particulate Air) filter/ carbon-charcoal filter pack. All filters are
easily removable with out tools. Air flow sensors continually
monitor air flow optimizing performance and grease removal while
an interlock system will not allow cooking appliances to function if
filters are missing, clogged or in the event of a fire.
Cooking Appliances – Only electrically heated appliances are
acceptable for installation. Cooking equipment is optional from
Wells or other manufacturers. Appliances must be installed as
per manufacturers instructions and controlled thru the hood
equipment shut-off interface through a customer supplied
contractor which will disable cooking equipment in the event of
fire or hood malfunction. For size, temperature and KW limits
see back page or manual.
Exhaust and Air Flow – Exhaust air may be horizontal or
vertical. Hoods are shipped for horizontal discharge and are
field convertible for vertical discharge. Typical airflow is 1,500
CFM. A minimum of 800 cubic feet of fresh air per minute is
recommended both in and out of the cooking area to ensure the
dilution of cooking aromas
DESCRIPTION:
Wells Universal hoods are Certified Type-1 compliant, UL710B
approved recirculation hood systems and feature completely
self-contained air filtration and fire-suppression systems. They
do not require venting outside making it possible to cook in nontraditional locations or when traditional Type-1 hoods and ductwork are impractical, restricted or too expensive. Operators can
mix and match various electric cooking equipment under the hood
such as fryers, ovens, griddles, steamers and more - providing
greater flexibility and through-put.
