These detectors activates when a certain temperature threshold is reached.
Heat Detectors
26
These detectors identify flames using infrared or ultraviolet light.
Flame Detectors
27
These panels receive signals from detectors, activate alarms, and communicate with fire services.
Alarm Control Panels
28
Modern fire protection systems often combine passive and active components for a comprehensive approach.

5 Fire Suppression Systems
1. Water-based Suppression System 2. Chemical Foam Suppression System 3. Pneumatic Heat Detection Tube 4. Pressurized Gas System 5. Foam Deluge System
30
One of the most commokn fire protection systems uses water to knock out fires. Water is housed in a reservoir and or connected to the water supply.
Water-based Suppression System
31
It's more expensive than several other fire suppression systems and requires pipework and fittings madr from stainless steel.
Chemical Foam Suppression
32
It is an extunguisher with a fire detection system.
Pneumatic Heat Detectiom Tube
33
This is ideal for server rooms and other areas with high-end electronics. It's compact since the gas is under pressure, and it doesn't cause oxygen reduction.
Pressurized Gas System
34
It is used in areas where water suppression isn't possible such as transformers and oil tanks. When a fire is detected, water mixes with the foam to expand it and fire.
Foam Deluge System
35
3 Evacuation Requirements
1. Emergency Lighting 2. Exit Signs 3. Evacuation Plans
36
These lights are designed to provide illumination during power outages, guiding people to safety.
Emergency Lighting
37
These are crucial for fire protection systems to ensure their continued effectiveness and reliability.
