Observing the principles of safety and preventing the any incidence, especially fires in the Oil &Gas and Petrochemical industries, is of a great importance.
In these industries, all relevant companies are looking for the most advanced Fire Alarm and Extinguishing Systems, because any incidence can lead to financial loses and human disasters and this issue has led to designing and implementing for Fire Alarm and Extinguishing Systems with fast response and minimum error coefficient which are in compliance with NFPA international standards for these risky industries.
Fire Alarm and Extinguishing Systems are divided into five categories:
- Conventional Fire Alarm Systems
- Addressable Fire Alarm Systems equipped with display
- Intelligent Systems
- Wireless systems
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
Commonly used Sensors and Alarm Modules in Fire Systems:
- Smoke Detectors
- Heat Detectors
- Multi Detector Sensors
- Linear Heat Detectors
- Air Sampling Detectors
- Gas Detectors
- Beam Detectors
- Buzzer
- Bell and Horn
- Electronic Sounder
- Siren
Fire Extinguishing Systems are divided into manual and automated ones:
- The different types of manual extinguishers:
- Extinguishing by different types of capsules:
- Powder typecapsule
- CO2 capsule
- FE36 capsule
- Foam typecapsule
- Extinguishing by different types of fire hoses
- The different types of automated extinguishers:
- Automatic water release extinguishing system
- Automatic gas release extinguishing system
- Automatic aerosol release extinguishing system
- Automatic foam release extinguishing system
- Automatic water-mist release extinguishing system
- Automatic vortex release extinguishing system
