Kitchen Ventilation Interlock System

  • (BSKVP 20) The Contractor shall install the complete catering kitchen ventilation interlock system. The system shall comply wholly with the details specified within the British Standard.
    A kitchen ventilation interlock system must be installed.
    The interlock panel shall be installed adjacent to the supply and extract speed controllers within the kitchen.
    The gas interlock should be used where gas cooking appliances beneath the catering kitchen canopy which do not incorporate a flame-failure device have been fitted.
    The panel shall include an emergency knock off button.
    There shall be an emergency knock off button at the kitchen exits, where the location is likely to be subject to nuisance activation the knock off button shall be shrouded.
    The gas interlock shall prevent gas to flow to the cookline should airflow be inadequate for the safe operation of appliances and safety of personnel.
    In duct air flow switches within kitchen extract duct shall not be used.
    Air flow may be measured by the available range of indirect methods such as pressure differential switches and/or current monitoring.
    Motor current monitoring shall NOT be used for belt driven fans.
    A gas interlock system shall be set-up and commissioned in accordance with the manufacturers instructions with due consideration for both clean and dirty filters.
