   SPECIFICATIONS    

 
Application
The ventilator shall provide flexibility in designing kitchen ventilation equipment and shall be tested and listed for use over light, medium and heavy duty cooking surfaces, maximum 600�F.

Construction
The ventilator shall be 100% constructed of Type 304 stainless steel with #3 or #4 polish on all surfaces. All seams shall be welded or in conformance with UL standards. Front exposed corners shall be ground and polished to match the ventilator grain. Individual component construction shall be determined by manufacturer, ETL and NSF. Construction shall be dependent on the structural application to minimize distortion and other defects. All seams, joints and penetrations of the ventilator where grease-laden vapors and exhaust gases are present, must be liquid-tight, continuous welds in accordance with NFPA 96.

The ventilator shall be constructed to include:

  • A double wall insulated front to eliminate condensation and increase rigidity. The insulation shall have a flexural modulus of 475 EI, meet UL 181 requirements and be in accordance with NFPA 90A and 90B.
  • A full length, horizontal exhaust inlet slot and a series of fixed baffles for grease removal.
  • An integral drain system on the ventilator back. Multiple end-to-end ventilators can be manifolded to one common drain.
  • An inclined supply plenum to direct grease-laden vapors toward the exhaust filter bank.
  • Supply plenum shall be insulated with 1" foil-backed insulation that is non-absorbent and flame spread rated at less than 25' when tested in accordance with UL Standard 723.
  • Volume damper adjustable by means of an adjustment screw located on the side of the damper assembly.
  • Supply air plenum containing perforated metal diffuser plates for even air distribution.
  • A built-in wiring chase for electrical controls on the front face of the ventilator designed to avoid penetration of the capture area and eliminate the need for an external chaseway.
  • UL incandescent light fixtures and globes, allowing up to a 100 watt standard light bulb, installed and pre-wired to a junction box and installed with a maximum of 3'-6" spacing on center.
  • Exhaust duct collar 5" high with 1" flange.
  • A minimum of four connections for hanger rods. Connectors shall have 9/16" holes pre-punched in 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" angle iron at the factory to allow for hanger rod connection by others.

Certifications
The ventilator shall be ETL Listed as "Exhaust Hoods Without Exhaust Damper", ETL Listed to Canadian Safety Standards, ETL Sanitation Listed and built in accordance with NFPA 96.

Documentation
Manufacturer shall furnish complete computer generated submittal drawings including ventilator section view(s), plan view(s), duct sizing, and CFM and static pressure requirements. Static pressure, air velocity and air volume requirements indicated on drawings shall be precise and accurate and ventilator shall preform to said specifications. Drawings shall be available to the engineer, architect and owner for their use in construction, operation and maintenance.
