industrial oil cooker
non-insulated conveyorized fryers, or batch kettles, used in food processing plants
Note 1 to entry: These cookers are extremely different in size, configuration, and construction from standard
kitchen or restaurant oil cookers or fryers and require a different type of extinguishment system. Industrial oil
cookers normally have large cooking surfaces, from four and a half square meter to several hundred square
meters. They contain from several hundred litres up to approximately 20 000 l of cooking oil. Industrial oil
cookers (except for some batch kettles) typically have moveable covers, or hoods, that can be hydraulically
operated.

4 General requirements
4.1 Up to a maximum of 5 nozzles used in the fire tests shall be kept for later verification.
4.2 The water mist system, operating without manual intervention, shall successfully complete all
described performance fire tests for their specific applications.
4.3 The tests shall be conducted until the fire is extinguished, as required by the applicable fire test.
4.4 System components, component locations, operating conditions and test enclosure details shall
remain unaltered throughout all of the fire tests for a given application.
4.5 All fire tests shall be conducted using the manufacturer specifications in regard to nozzle
placement, spray flux, and spray duration. Sprays can be continuous or intermittent in time. In the case
of intermittent, or cycled, sprays, the time period during which the system is not discharging shall not
be greater than 50 % of one complete on/off cycle. The system off period shall not exceed 1 min.
4.6 The nozzles can be placed inside or outside the industrial oil cooker and shall be located in
accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.
4.7 In case a nozzle is provided with protective caps, these shall also be used during the fire tests. If
nozzle caps are not provided, an alternative method is needed to prevent grease vapours, moisture or
other foreign matter from entering the piping and plugging the nozzle orifice.
4.8 The fire scenarios shall be conducted using cooking oil specified by the manufacturer. Commonly
used cooking oils, their flash points and AITs are listed in Table 1 for information. The test results are
only valid for water mist system with cooking oils with flash points and AITs less than or equal to the
tested oil ± 5 %. If oils with lower AIT or flash point shall be used in the field, then the test has to be
repeated with the respective new cooking oil.

5.1 The test laboratory shall be of adequate size with natural or minimal ventilation so as to not
interfere with the fire testing within the enclosure or about the mock-up or test fuel package.
5.2 The size of the test laboratory shall not impact extinguishment of any test fires (i.e. depletion of
oxygen due to an inadequately sized test laboratory).

5.3 For all fire tests, the ceiling, floor and walls shall be as dry as possible, with only ambient moisture
content allowed. The relative humidity in the test enclosure shall not significantly differ from that of the
ambient relative humidity.
5.4 The test enclosures or laboratory shall be at an ambient temperature of (20 ± 10) C prior to the
start of the test. The enclosure or hall shall be at as uniform an ambient temperature as reasonably
possible. Localized hot or cold spots are not permitted. All non-fire induced drafts shall be eliminated.
5.5 The minimum operating nozzle pressure (as specified by the manufacturer) shall be used for all
tests, unless otherwise noted. System operating pressures shall be repeatable to within ± 5 %. If the
system pressures cannot be controlled within the specified tolerance, fire tests shall be conducted at the
minimum and maximum pressure by using external means to control the system pressure.
