Pre-Action and Deluge type sprinkler
systems are variations of conventional sprinkler
systems that are used in special applications. |
Pre-action
System
A pre-action system uses closed sprinkler heads and
the pipe is charged with compressed air instead of water.
The water is held in check by an electrically-operated
sprinkler valve and the compressed air. A pre-action
sprinkler system includes a fire control panel and either
smoke or heat detectors. When both a smoke (or heat)
detector is activated and the air pressure in the pipe
drops due to an open sprinkler head (activated from
a fire or extreme heat), the sprinkler valve opens and
water travels to the open sprinkler head(s). Pre-Action
systems are commonly found in record storage rooms,
and data processing facilities in conjunction with an
FM-200 system, or in refrigerated or freezer warehouses.
Deluge System
A deluge system is similar to a pre-action system except the sprinkler
heads are open and the pipe is not pressurized with air. When the
detection system is activated water discharges through all of the
sprinkler heads in the system. Deluge systems are found in such
applications as power plants, aircraft hangars, and chemical storage
or processing facilities.
CSI in association with it's business partners, can provide an
engineered solution for both the sprinkler system and the detection
system.
CSI provides a total solution approach to your Fire Protection
Needs.
