Fire systems are the most important life safety systems which have become obligatory with various regulations depending on countries. Systems detect fire in buildings and facilities at the outset with various detection devices, warn the building management and the people in the buildings and thereby ensure the security of life and property. Moreover, it gives automatic signals to other systems and realizes the scenario in alarm situations. Together with all their components, fire systems have to be selected according to certain regulations such as TSE (Turkish Standards Institute) standards (and Fire Safety Regulation) in Turkey, NFPA in the North America, SniP in Russia, etc. Furthermore, there are also standards relating to the production and design of components (such as UL, ULC, LPCB, GOST, TSE standards).
Depending on the size of the facilities, the number of points to be controlled changes and so do the technology, capacity and characteristics of the fire systems to be used. Fire systems components can be summarized as below;
- Systems, Panels (Conventional, addressed, smart interactive)
- Panels operating stand alone or as a network
- Repeater panels
- Smoke control mimic panels
- Central Monitoring computer software
- Smoke, heat, combined smoke and heat detectors
- Duct smoke detectors
- Gas, flame detectors
- Linear beam smoke detectors
- Monitor and control modules
- Break glass alarm buttons
- Integrated fireman telephone system and firefighter telephones
- Integrated emergency announce amplifiers and sound control units
- Ex-proof detectors for flammable and explosive materials
- Cable type heat detection systems
- Active air induction smoke detection systems
In addition, all fire systems which have become complex in today’s conditions, have to be integrated with other systems and have the infrastructure to ensure exchange of information with them.
