Sprinkler System:
An
automatic sprinkler system is intended to detect, control and extinguish a
fire, and warn the occupants of occurrence of fire. The installation comprises
fire pumps, water storage tanks, control valve sets, sprinkler heads, flow
switches, pressure switches, pipe work and valves. The system operates
automatically without human intervention.
Each sprinkler head contains a glass bulb or a fusible
link. The bulb contains a liquid and a quantity of vapour. The liquid expands
under the influence of heat as do the fusible link heads. When the temperature
reaches a certain level – typically at 68 Degree Centigrade – it will expand
the liquid and break the bulb or fusible link, which in turn releases water
directly onto the seat of the fire.
The hot gases from a fire will make the sprinkler
operate. A fire creates a narrow plume of hot air and gasses that rise to the
ceiling and spread out. These hot gasses activate the sprinkler head at the
correct temperature.
