How does a fire
alarm system work? |
|
You
have got a prosperous business where you invested time, money and
feelings. You have made yourself a respected and known name, imposing
respect and power. Success is your key word whether it is characterized
by these features or not, and it may get people envious, frustrated,
mean. There is a question to be asked: „Have you done anything to
forestall certain events such as fire as a possible reaction of human
nature or hazard?"
Fire
is a complex, aleatory, uncontrolled phenomenon. Due to its violent
behavior, it represents a threat to people and goods.
High
buildings need special fire measures to be taken as they make fire vertical
propagation easier due to their height. People evacuation out of a high
building on fire is also more difficult than evacuation off a house or small
building, limiting fireman search and rescue.
Taking
into consideration what we mentioned above, specialists will always try to
design the best fire system alternative to assure first fire burst detection
in order to protect people and goods by limiting fire extension.
The system is designed in such a way as to notify the local or regional fire brigades immediately. |

Electronic security systems notice possible fire and gas leaking occurrence conditions, limiting damage producing risks and diminishing the premium value. |

An
electronic system notifying first fire bursts will accomplish the
following functions:
• it will permanently check
smoke detectors in each room on each floor of the building.
• the moment an event occurs
(smoke detection) on one or several detectors, it will be recognized by
the fire alarm panel that will trigger warning or prewarning on acoustic
warning devices. The panel may also operate the evacuation doors,
elevators, etc. automatically.
• it will signal the new
events opto-acoustically on the front panel (smoke detection, out of order
wiring or equipment)
Briefly,
a fire detecting system consists of:
- fire alarm panel;
- smoke and/or temperature
detectors;
- emergency buttons for fast
alarm triggering;
- acoustic and optical warning
devices (sirens/flashes)
Fire
detecting and notifying system will be organized on three levels:
- local devices for data
detection and gathering;
- signaling equipments;
- coordination fire alarm
panel.
System
functions can be level integrated by means of technical substructure.
Warning
in alarm cases will be locally done by sirens or on phone line to a
monitoring station. |
