LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug hood power and allow surfaces to cool. Remove FG51-1616 filter and soak in a degreasing solution (use measured gallons or liters per cleaning label). Scrub with a non-abrasive brush, rinse completely, and air dry. Inspect for damage and replace if seals or metal deform. Clean surrounding hood and vents to prevent grease buildup and fire risk. Schedule routine cleanings to maintain CSA compliance, improve energy efficiency, and reduce breakdowns.#@@#Additional Info#@#Component Hardware FG51-1616 Galvanized Fixed Flame Gard baffle filter measures 16" x 16" x 1.75", weighs 3.8 pounds, and has cULus and NSF certifications. It captures grease and installs in standard housings for reliable performance.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop compromising safety for convenience. This galvanized fixed flame guard baffle filter delivers engineered fire control and efficient grease capture while fitting common 16-inch by 16-inch hood systems. It enables continuous kitchen operation with predictable performance and straightforward maintenance.
#@@# Product Functionality#@#
This filter employs a fixed baffle design that directs hot gases and grease through staggered plates to separate particulates and reduce flame propagation. Installers will appreciate the nominal 16-inch by 16-inch footprint and 1.75-inch thickness that match standard hood slots, simplifying field replacement.
#@@# Fire Mitigation#@#
Galvanized steel baffles create a tortuous path that limits flame travel and traps flaming grease within the chamber, significantly reducing the risk of fire spread. Certified listings from CSA and cULus provide third-party verification of construction and performance for code compliance.
#@@# Grease Management#@#
Layered baffle plates channel grease into collection points while minimizing airflow restriction, allowing exhaust fans to maintain designed CFM without excessive backpressure. Facility managers will benefit from reduced cleaning frequency and a lower risk of saturated filters that compromise capture efficiency.
#@@# Durability and Fit#@#
Cold-rolled galvanized construction resists corrosion and withstands common kitchen conditions, preserving structural integrity over repeated cleaning cycles. Technicians will find that the standard nominal dimensions ensure interchangeability with prevailing hood filter frames.
#@@# Certifications and Compliance#@#
NSF certification confirms hygienic construction suitable for commercial foodservice applications, while cULus listing indicates adherence to relevant safety standards, supporting permitting and inspection workflows. Procurement teams can document compliance during installations and audits.
