B. Plenum Protection

The model 1H nozzle, Part No. 551029, is a one (1) flow nozzle used for plenum protection. A single 1H nozzle can protect a plenum (with single or V-bank filters) 10 ft. (3.1 m)

C. Appliance Protection

Note: When protecting appliances which are larger than single nozzle coverage, multiple nozzles can be used.

Larger appliances can be divided into several modules, each equal to or smaller than single nozzle coverage. Exception: Fryers must not exceed a maximum of 864 sq. in. (5574 sq. cm).

For modularizing fryers, refer to "FRYER - MULTIPLE NOZZLE PROTECTION"
