Can i class K manual extinguishing equitment be the only subpression system,in a commerial kitchen with a exhuast fan?

It depends on your local building and fire codes, but in the vast majority of cases, no. NFPA 96 requires an automatic suppression systems for Type I hoods and most jurisdictions adopt it in part or in whole.
