Advanced Fire Protection Options

Modern technology has resulted in more advanced fire protection options. These include multi-sensor devices that adapt to changes in the environment, Chemical-based and inert gas systems and Smoke detection technology. Learn about these advanced fire protection and their benefits. Then, choose the right one for your home or office. We’ll cover these and more in this article. But first, let’s look at some of the most popular types.

Multi-sensor devices can adapt to the changes in the environment:

A multi-sensor device consists of two components, a hardware unit, and software. The hardware unit monitors the environment and polls the sensors at regular intervals. The software unit runs the inputs through a fuzzy logic application to determine if a fire has been detected. The software allows the fire department to respond quickly and can even send the fire department emergency personnel a notification if they are unsure about the status of the fire.

Wireless sensor networks are another new technology that is receiving more attention in the field of fire detection. They integrate sensors, data processing, and a wireless transceiver to determine whether a fire has started and how far it has spread. Because they use the same source battery, they are not required to be recharged. Unlike traditional alarm systems, wireless sensor networks can monitor physical and chemical parameters, including smoke and temperature.

Inert gas systems:

Inert gas fire suppression systems are designed to reduce the amount of oxygen in an area where a fire has started. Fires need oxygen to spread, so it is crucial to cut the amount of oxygen in a space. However, inert gas systems do not completely remove the oxygen in a space, as there is still enough for people to breathe. Inert gas fire suppression systems use several different gases, such as argon and nitrogen, to reduce the fire-fighting risk.

Inert gas systems use 100% nitrogen or argon, or a mixture of the two. They are automatically applied to the protected zone in sufficient concentrations to combat the fire. The gas is safe for humans to breathe, and there are no toxic by-products. Unlike halocarbons or perfluorinated ketone fire-fighting systems, inert gas is not hazardous to the human body. It also leaves no residue behind.

Chemical-based systems:

These fire alarm systems rely on smoke detection to alert people of fires. As smoke is a product of the combustion of fuels, it is a dangerous airborne contaminant. The detection methods can be photoelectric or ionization-based. Photoelectric detectors detect changes in light scattering, whereas ionization smoke alarms utilize a radioactive source to interact with smoke particles.
