Automatic sprinklers are a part fire extinguishing systems. Usually part of a fire protection system based on a water reservoir for the supply system and a network of pipes which are terminal elements. They usually are activated by detecting the effects of a fire since the temperature rise associated with fire, or smoke is generated by combustion (fire sprinkler hydraulic calculations).
In 1902 Frederick Grinnell patented the design Grinel alarm check valve. Water system Grinnell. A - short tube diameter of half an inch, screwed into a water pipe and closes flat bottom valve b; valve lever is held and backup c d. Backup d attached to the copper arc e apparatus with a weak solder which melts at a temperature of 73 degrees C.
It consists of a thermo-sensitive element that is designed to destroy at predetermined temperatures, automatically causing the release of plug and the outlet of a water spray, which should extinguish the flame right in area where it has started. This device can be of two types: side of a disassembled sprayer without bulb or fuse Vista.
Hence the name sprayed, which varies depending on the application that you want to give the system sprinkler. The most common use of these sprinkler-systems is the cooling of walls of a storage tank of flammable liquids because they are easier and less costly to maintain than a system of sprinklers, which moreover do not correspond to a pattern of dispersal water required by such facilities.
Therefore, in case of fire, after the destruction of temperature sensor, the lid remains tightly spray glued to the hull and the water from the system is not received. Such cases were reported in the fire at many places in USA. After that, the producers was conducted large-scale action to recall and replace all sprinklers with rubber sealing rings. In some countries the use of sprinklers with a rubber seal is prohibited.
According to statistics in case of activated fire sprinkler-systems 40% of the time the fire was extinguished by sprinklers, 80% of flames is extinguished when triggered no more than 10 sprinklers. On this basis, taking into account the area, protected by a single sprinkler (12 square meters is determined by the area, which is needed to irrigate the maximum flow of water sprinkler-system. For the first group space area is 120 square meters.
Fire-extinguishing system is maintained in working order. Sprinklers should be regularly inspected for mechanical damage, corrosion, coating damage, obstructions irrigation. Damaged sprinklers must be replaced. Even small leaks require immediate replacement of the sprinkler. To do this, have an arsenal of spare sprinklers and constantly replenish it. Sprinkler who have been exposed to heat of combustion products exceeds the value of maximum allowable operating temperature must be replaced.
Another advantage of such a system is that the shot can be caused by smoke detection or detection of air ionization, since there are smoke detectors these extremes, while the temperature sensing function of temperature only. Its disadvantage is that, of course, is a more expensive installation.
