Automatic Water Sprinkler System

Each sprinkler is a true heat detector calibrated for a fixed temperature. A wide range of different quarzoid bulb and fusible solder devices (heat detector) are available for different applications and temperatures. As soon as the threshold temperature limit is passed, the quarzoid bulb bursts, or fusible alloy device melts and the sprinkler valve opens and releases the water under pressure.
The water is projected directly over the seat of the fire which has generated the heat to operate the sprinkler. The rapidity of this action prevents from the fire spreading. The opening of even only one sprinkler starts an alarm which will alert the occupants as well as at the same time the fire brigades.The essentials role of water automatic extinguishing systems is to ensure that the fire is fought right from the start, by projection of water and simultaneously actuating the alarm.
It is particularly suitable for solid combustible class A fire. Water is the most used extinguishing agent due to its availability as well as to its low cost.
