Fire Suppression System

What are fire detection and extinguishing systems?

One of the basic principles of protection in case of fire is its early detection. Here the main role that is played by fire alarm systems - technical means of detecting fire and transmitting the corresponding signal to warning and fire extinguishing systems.

Timely detection, localization and elimination of a fire can save lives and minimize damage associated with the decommissioning of expensive equipment.

There are several types of fire alarms, differing in principle of operation:

Threshold Fire Alarm - a system of alarm detectors with a fixed sensitivity threshold. It includes a set of equipment, but when one of the sensors is triggered, a general alarm is generated and transmitted (the number of the triggered sensor and the room in which it is installed are not specified). Such systems are cheaper, easy to install and maintain, and are suitable for relatively small buildings.

Addressable fire alarms - also consists of a whole range of devices, but when a specific detector sends an alarm in the alarm loop, an exchange protocol is triggered that allows you to determine which sensor worked and provide more accurate information about the territory and the type of hazard that has arisen.

Analogue-addressable fire alarm systems - works on the principle of collecting information from "intelligent" detectors. Sensors in such a system make continuous measurements of temperature, smoke, etc. and transmit information to the fire alarm station, which analyzes the nature of the change in these parameters and, if necessary, generates an address alarm. This monitoring method is used for early detection of an alarming situation, obtaining data on the need for maintenance of devices due to pollution or other factors. Its distinctive feature is the ability to set and change the sensitivity threshold of detectors, individually configure and reconfigure devices to adapt to conditions at the facility.

In addition to fire alarms, aspiration systems for early fire detection were included. Systems of aspiration smoke detection allow to detect a fire in a minimum time and take all necessary measures to localize the source of ignition. This significantly reduces the level of threat to employees, and also minimizes material damage from a fire.

The use of aspiration systems for early fire detection is preferable for a number of objects where it is important to gain time and/or minimize losses from downtime and damage to equipment:

• server rooms and data centers

• educational and health institutions

• production facilities and warehouses

• museums, archives and libraries

• energy and transport hubs

• military facilities
