Ansul Henny Penny Nozzle Kit 434455

The Ansul 434455 is a specialty nozzle kit designed for Henny Penny cooking equipment protected by ANSUL R-102 restaurant fire suppression systems. Henny Penny pressure fryers, open fryers, and combination ovens present a unique suppression nozzle challenge due to their enclosed cooking chamber design and high-volume cooking oil capacity — standard ANSUL R-102 nozzle configurations may not provide correct discharge coverage for Henny Penny equipment without the specialized nozzles and adapters included in the 434455 kit. This kit ensures the ANSUL R-102 system delivers optimal wet chemical agent coverage for the specific fire hazard geometry of Henny Penny cooking appliances.

The ANSUL R-102 system's UL 300 listing for Class K cooking oil and grease fire suppression is based on tested nozzle-to-appliance configurations documented in the ansul r-102 nozzle chart. Henny Penny equipment is a specific appliance type with its own listed nozzle configuration in the ANSUL R-102 system design documentation — the 434455 kit provides the correct nozzle hardware for that configuration. Using standard R-102 nozzles on Henny Penny equipment without the 434455 kit may produce inadequate agent coverage that fails UL 300 and NFPA 96 requirements for the protected appliance.

For fire protection contractors installing ANSUL R-102 systems in commercial kitchens with Henny Penny equipment, the 434455 kit is a required line item in the system design and installation. Available through authorized ansul distributors. Install per the ansul nozzle chart requirements for Henny Penny appliances and verify nozzle aim using the ANSUL laser pointer adapter (439876) before commissioning. Inspect the kit nozzles at every semi-annual NFPA 17A and NFPA 96 service visit — verify nozzle caps are present, nozzle positions are undisturbed, and no grease blockage has occurred. Document in the fire suppression system inspection record.

Install the 434455 nozzle kit per the ansul r-102 nozzle chart configuration for Henny Penny cooking equipment. Use the ANSUL laser pointer adapter (439876) to verify precise nozzle aim before locking nozzles in position. Nozzle caps must be installed on all kit nozzles at all times except during system discharge. At every semi-annual NFPA 17A and NFPA 96 inspection, verify all kit nozzles are correctly positioned per the installation drawings, nozzle caps are present and undamaged, and no grease has entered the nozzle orifices. After any system discharge, inspect and replace all nozzle caps and verify nozzle positions. Document in the fire suppression system inspection record.

Can standard ANSUL R-102 nozzles be used on Henny Penny equipment instead of the 434455 kit?

No. Henny Penny cooking equipment requires the specific nozzle configuration documented in the ANSUL R-102 system design documentation for that appliance type. Using standard nozzles without the 434455 kit produces a different discharge coverage pattern that may not achieve UL 300 rated suppression for the Henny Penny appliance hazard geometry. The 434455 is the required nozzle solution for Henny Penny applications in ANSUL R-102 systems — always use it when protecting this equipment type.

Does the 434455 kit work with both Henny Penny pressure fryers and open fryers?

Verify the specific Henny Penny appliance types covered by the 434455 kit using the ANSUL R-102 system documentation or by consulting authorized ansul distributors. Different Henny Penny models may require different nozzle configurations. Confirm the 434455 is the correct kit for the specific Henny Penny equipment in your protected kitchen before installation.
