As the 1\/2 inch EMT conduit carrying the detection cable passes through restaurant hoods, ducts, and walls, this union creates a liquid-tight, mechanically secure connection point between conduit sections, accepting a high-temperature pulley elbow where needed and correctly positioning it in line with the conduit adaptor hole in the detector bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis is a small but structurally important fitting. The detection cable inside the conduit must run smoothly and maintain consistent tension along its entire length back to the release mechanism, and a poorly seated or incorrect union can introduce binding, misalignment, or a path for moisture intrusion into the conduit run. Replacement unions should always match the specified part number for the system's existing conduit layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cbutton class=\"accordion-header\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-title\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-icon\"\u003e⌄\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content-inner\"\u003e\n      \u003ctable class=\"specs-table\"\u003e\n        \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n        \u003ctbody\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnsul \/ Pyro-Chem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e079827\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComponent Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompression Union\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2 Inch (EMT Conduit)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnsul R-102 and Pyro-Chem Kitchen Fire Suppression Detection Conduit Runs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n          \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFunction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLiquid-Tight Conduit Connection for Detection Cable Run\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n      \u003c\/table\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cbutton class=\"accordion-header\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-title\"\u003eInstallation and Compliance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-icon\"\u003e⌄\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content-inner\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eKitchen suppression systems are pre-engineered systems under NFPA 17A, and any modification to the detection conduit run, including replacing a compression union, must be performed by a certified distributor for the system in question.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSemiannual Professional Service:\u003c\/strong\u003e A qualified technician inspects the conduit run, including unions and elbows, for corrosion, looseness, or damage during each required service interval.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplacement Trigger:\u003c\/strong\u003e If a union shows corrosion, looseness, or is not seated correctly against the conduit, it should be replaced with the correct OEM part for the existing conduit size and layout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-Replacement Check:\u003c\/strong\u003e After any conduit work, the detection cable's tension and free movement through the run must be verified before the system is returned to service.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cbutton class=\"accordion-header\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-title\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"accordion-icon\"\u003e⌄\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content-inner\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eIs this part specific to Ansul, or does it also work with Pyro-Chem systems?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis compression union is used across both Ansul R-102 and Pyro-Chem kitchen fire suppression systems, which share compatible 1\/2 inch EMT conduit detection hardware.
