The Ansul 079007 is an OEM inside actuation hose for the Ansul R-102 restaurant fire suppression system. Actuation hoses in the R-102 system provide the flexible connections within and between the AUTOMAN regulated release mechanism enclosure and the regulated actuator assemblies, transmitting the nitrogen actuation pressure pulse that opens the agent tank valves and initiates a discharge. The flexible design of this hose accommodates the slight positional tolerances that exist between rigidly piped components inside the enclosure and between adjacent system assemblies.
As with all actuation hoses in the R-102 system, this is an OEM component that must match the system's actuation circuit specifications. Using a non-OEM substitute can introduce fitting compatibility issues or pressure drop characteristics that affect the actuation circuit's ability to reliably transmit the discharge pulse to all connected agent tanks simultaneously.

The R-102 system is a pre-engineered system under NFPA 17A. Any work involving actuation hoses must be performed by an Ansul certified distributor as part of the system's installation or service.
- OEM Part Only: Use only Ansul P/N 079007 for this position in the actuation circuit. Non-OEM substitutes have not been tested with the R-102 system and may affect actuation reliability.
- Semiannual Professional Service: A qualified technician inspects all actuation hoses for kinks, cracking, corrosion, or loose fittings at each required semiannual service interval.
- Post-Discharge Inspection: After any system activation, this hose must be inspected and the full system certified before returning to service.
How is this hose different from the other braided actuation hoses in the R-102 line?
The R-102 system uses several actuation hose configurations for different positions. The 079007 is the inside actuation hose specifically used within or between system enclosures, while other actuation hoses such as the 32335 (20-inch) and 32336 (24-inch) stainless steel braided versions serve external actuation line runs. Your system's design documentation specifies which hose belongs at each connection point.
Can I replace this hose myself if it shows signs of wear?
No. Any hose replacement in the R-102 actuation circuit must be performed by an Ansul certified distributor to preserve the system's UL listing and ensure the actuation circuit functions correctly when needed.
