Hey there,
At Harvard CNS, we have fire-suppression on our metal (solvent +
photoresist) benches (single big CO2 bottle on each), and no fire
suppression on poly (acid/base/developer) benches.
Quartz heated tanks usually means RCA clean or Piranha etch, i.e. acids,
so less fire risk. At least here, no suppression would be required.
Local codes may vary, of course...
