Appliance Coverage

Table 3 illustrates the maximum permitted hazard zone dimensions of each appliance that can be pro-

tected within a single overlapping zone. It is important to note that the hazard zone (area requiring protec-

tion) is different than the total appliance size.

Notes:

1. All dimensions shown are based on overlapping protection.

2. All dimensions and areas shown reference the hazard zone of the appliance, which is typically smaller

than the outside dimensions of the appliance itself.

3. For multi-vat fryers, no single fryer module (vat & drip board) can exceed the above limitations. Nozzle

height(s) for fryers should be taken from the fryer’s minimum level indicator.

4. Protection for tilt skillets and braising pans are to be based on the coverage parameters provided for

fryer protection. Tilt skillets should be placed at the back of the hazard zone. Tilt skillet coverage must

not interfere with the edge of the nozzle discharge pattern.

5. All appliance hazard surfaces must be located within the hazard zone.

6. Smaller appliances can be positioned anywhere in the zone (e.g., moved left, right, forward, or

backward, provided the cooking hazard does not extend beyond the perimeter of the zone).

7. When the depth of the appliance exceeds maximum cooking hazard dimensions, a second row of

nozzle coverage should be added.

8. Deep Fat/Industrial Fryer/Tilt Skillets over 14” wide and up to 34” max depth will be overlapping with 4

nozzles per tank, 30” max spacing. Max oil capacity: 24.75 gallons. Refer to Table 4 on page 21.

Figure 22 illustrates the placement of nozzles for TANK Fire Suppression overlapping protection.

Appliances denoted with an (*), or if there is an obstruction as defined on Table 6 on page 21, dedicated

coverage will be required. Refer to page 24, page 25, and page 29 for details.
