General Description
Description
The temperature interlock is designed to automatically
start kitchen hood exhaust fans and keep them
running while heat is being generated from the
cooking appliances. Hood systems should always be
manually started before equipment is turned on. If the
fans are forgotten to be turned on, the interlock will
turn the fans on once heat is detected. The interlock
consists of an adjustable thermostat, junction box,
Evergreen Quik-Seal threaded fitting, and is contained
Product Specification
Temperature Interlock
International Mechanical Code (IMC) 2006 section
507.2.1.1 Compliant Electrical Package
Provide Greenheck temperature interlock electrical
package as shown on plans and in accordance with
the following specification:
The temperature interlock(s) consists of an adjustable
thermostat, junction box, fire proof/leak proof
threaded fitting (Evergreen Quik-Seal® and/or
Evergreen Compression Seal), and shall be a selfcontained unit or as part of another pre-engineered
electrical control package.
The temperature interlock package shall close a
relay powering the fans when the set temperature is
reached at the thermostat. The interlock shall hold the
circuit closed upon fan switch being turned off until
the temperature at the sensor decreases below the
set point at which point the timed relay will begin a
countdown. Once the countdown has expired and as
long as the temperature has remained below the set
point, the fans shall shut down.
The temperature interlock package shall be
constructed by Greenheck in accordance with
International Mechanical Code. The manufacturer
shall provide, upon request, the necessary data that
confirms compliance with the code listed above.
Due to continuous research, Greenheck reserves the
right to change specifications without notice.
in a stand alone box or can be added to a preengineered fan control center.
Purpose
To meet IMC 2006 section 507.2.1.1, interlock
between exhaust fans and cooking equipment. This
system will utilize a temperature sensor in the exhaust
duct collar or in capture area of hood to detect heat
generated from cooking operations and automatically
activate the exhaust fans if not already turned on.
Field wiring may be required depending on location of
components.
Product Application
The temperature interlock is designed to be used
with Type I and Type II Hoods. It is not to be used in
conjunction with exhaust fire dampers. Greenheck
recommends using one interlock per hood system
(activates all fans linked to system simultaneously).
Performance Goals
Automatically energize the exhaust fans when cooking
equipment generates heat. Basic controls will be
provided with a thermostat and will consist of an 8x8
electrical box with controls and a labeled terminal
strip to hook-up incoming power and fan starters.
An adjustable delay is used to keep the exhaust fans
running when the thermostat initially closes to prevent
the fan from cycling on and off at startup and shut
down. Fans will shut down automatically 20 minutes
after the thermostat opens its contact. The time delay
can be adjusted from 1-100 minutes based on jobsite
requirements.
Upon receiving the equipment, check for both obvious
and hidden damage. If damage is found, record all
necessary information on the bill of lading and file
a claim with the final carrier. Check to be sure that
all parts of the shipment, including accessories, are
accounted for.
Storage
If a temperature interlock must be stored prior
to installation it must be protected from dirt and
moisture. Indoor storage is recommended. For
outdoor storage, cover the hood with a tarp to keep it
clean, dry, and protected from UV (ultraviolet) radiation
damage.
Improper storage which results in damage to the unit
will void the warranty.
