Those individuals responsible for the <br /> design of the R -102 system must be trained and hold a current <br /> Ansul certificate in an R -102 training program. <br /> The R -102 and the PIRANHA systems use compatible agents and <br /> components, therefore, they may be used together for cooking <br /> appliance, hood, and duct protection. The primary ANSUL <br /> AUTOMAN Release can be either an R -102 or a PIRANHA <br /> ANSUL AUTOMAN Release and can actuate up to two additional <br /> R -102 or PIRANHA Regulated Actuators. In systems utilizing a <br /> 101 remote release, any combination of the maximum number of <br /> re regulated actuators can be used. 2 - 8 IN <br /> g IS - 20 rm) <br /> • Both systems must actuate simultaneously. <br /> • Each system must be designed and installed per its appropri- FIGURE 1 <br /> ate manual. <br /> • Adjacent appliances requiring protection must be protected 2.
