Extinguishing Control Panels
Extinguishing Control Panels

In Gas Extinguishing Systems, there should be a separate Extinguishing Control Panel for each location.

Automatic Extinguishing Panels, in the event of a fire irreparable or risky and valuable areas that are essential for process continuity, used in places such as; data processing rooms, MCC rooms, archive rooms, museums, ships, etc.

DETECTION IN GAS EXTINGUISHING SYSTEMS

In general, point detectors or smoke detectors with active air extraction are used on the detection side of gas extinguishing systems. In design and applications, technologies that can detect fire products (smoke, heat, flame, etc.) in the most accurate and early way should be preferred.

Active air sampling systems are used especially in areas such as panel rooms and system rooms of projects such as Metro, Airport, Shopping Center, Industrial Facility etc. where early detection is important to ensure business continuity.

Detection with Point Detectors

The following visual belongs to an application example created using point detectors and cross zoning. In the settlements made by using point detectors, detectors that can detect fire products due to different characteristics and have different operating principles are used and they are connected to each other in a way to form 2 separate zones by cross zoning. Thus, when the alarm signal comes from two zones of the extinguishing system at the same time, the extinguishing system is activated. If an information is received only from a single zone, this warns the user as a pre-alarm information and the extinguishing system is not activated at this stage. With cross zoning, it is aimed to prevent unnecessary discharge of extinguishing gas in case of a false detection that may come from a single zone.

Detection with Active Air Draft Detectors.

It is preferred to use active air sampling systems in areas where early detection is important (Panel Room, System Room, etc.) in order to ensure business continuity in projects.

Active Air Drawing Smoke Detectors; these are systems that can detect very small amounts of smoke by continuously monitoring the air it draws from the protected area through a pipe network in a very sensitive detector. Active air extraction detectors are "active" devices that take samples by continuously pulling air from the environment instead of waiting for the smoke to reach itself, unlike point or beam type detectors. They do not need a horizontal surface (ceiling, etc.) that will allow smoke to accumulate like point or beam type detectors. Due to these features, they can make multiple detection at any desired height. In addition, they have a very wide sensitivity range compared to point and beam type detectors. Gas extinguishing systems and active draft smoke detectors can work in an integrated manner. The 1st and 2nd alarm levels of the air draft smoke detector are monitored from the fire alarm system, while the 3rd and 4th alarm levels of the detector are connected to the zone inputs of the gas extinguishing system and integrated into the automatic extinguishing system.

The main advantages of the system over other detection criteria are as follows.

- Prevention of unnecessary gas discharges in extinguishing systems,
- Extra time for safe evacuation,
- Fast detection time,
- Aesthetic and unobtrusive perception need,
- Ease of maintenance

HOLDING, DISCHARGE AND CANCEL BUTTONS

SondurmeKontrolPanelleri

Hold Button (HOLD): Stops the countdown time of the control panel or restarts the countdown when the system is in the general alarm state.

Discharge Button (RELEASE): It allows the system to manually evacuate the gas.

Cancel Button (ABORT): Gas discharge can be CANCELED by activating the stop button within the gas discharge countdown period.

 

WARNING DEVICES

SondurmeKontrolPanelleri

There should be audible and visual warning devices in the areas to be extinguished to warn the personnel inside that the detection is made or that the extinguishing process has been activated.

Flashing Siren: When information is received from a zone, it notifies the alarm signal to the place where gas extinguishing will be made

Bell: Notifies that the gas discharge process has started.

 

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF EXTINGUISHING CONTROL PANELS

Control panel;
When one of the detectors connected to the 1st zone detects, the flashing siren starts to sound and alarm information is given to the place where gas extinguishing will be made.

When a detector connected to zone 2 makes the detection, the bell starts ringing; the time (30 seconds) previously defined in the panel for the gas to discharge into the space starts to count down. At the end of the countdown time programmed in the panel, the Extinguishing Control Panel discharges the gas inside the gas tubes at the site..

  • After the countdown time has started, the "cancel button" must be activated to manually stop the counting.
  • The countdown will not run as long as the hold button is held down. When the button is released, the count will continue from where it left off, and the gas will automatically discharge at the end of the time.
  • Independent of detector triggering, the "discharge button" must be activated so that the gas can be evacuated manually.

After the Extinguishing Control Panel detects the fire, it can start or stop many operations according to the fire scenario. Such as; turning off the ventilation system and equipment, activating the alarm, turning off the UPS, etc

The dampers must be closed after the first alarm or when the discharge button is pressed. It is recommended to monitor the doors belonging to the room with magnetic contact from the addressed fire monitoring panel.

INTEGRATION OF EXTINGUISHING CONTROL PANELS INTO THE ADDRESSED BUILDING FIRE SYSTEMS

In Gas Extinguishing Systems, there should be a separate Extinguishing Control Panel for each location. The alarm, malfunction, gas discharge status information of the Extinguishing Control Panel should be monitored from the addressed fire monitoring panel. For this process, it will be sufficient to allocate 3 monitoring modules for each extinguishing control panel to the addressable fire alarm system
