we have to distinguish between firefighting and fire alarm system. fire fighting is mechanical work (either sprinkler system or Foam or CO2 or FM200) and there is fire alarm or detection system this is an electrical thing that includes ( detectors an fire alarm system) for electrical control building we use FM200.
Mimic panel in fire alarm system 'mimics' or mirrors the signal of the Main Fire Control Panel.
distributed control systems
The fire alarm control system (or control panel) "FACP" is the portion of a fire alarm system that monitors remote sensors, determines when there is an alarm condition, activates the alarm and possible other actions. The FACP can trigger release of fire doors, release exterior locks on access doors or hatches, start or stop ventilation systems, start a fire pump, phone a monitoring center to request the fire department, among other things. One thing a FACP can do in a specific high-hazard occupancy is to start the deluge sprinkler or fire extinguisher system. Ordinary fire sprinklers are heat activated individually.
Did you mean Jockey Pump which is a small pump connected to a fire sprinkler system and intended to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system to an artificially high level so the operation of a single fire sprinkler will cause a drop in pressure that will be sensed by the fire pumps automatic controller, causing the fire pump to start. The Jockey Pump is essentially a portion of the fire pumps control system.
Plate Repeater is used in the fire alarm system so that it shows the same information that the main control panel does. The repeater panel looks a lot like the main control panel and can be placed up to 30 meters from the main control panel.
There is no such standard. Fire alarm control panels are typically customized for as many loops as necessary for the structure. It may have one loop or a hundred or anything in between.
A drencher fire control system is installed on all floors to cover all external wall openings. The flow rate should be maintained not less than 10 liters per minute. It should be able to run for at least 30 minutes.
The Tamper switches for a fire sprinkler system are located on the main control valves which are located on either side of the backflow preventer for a wet type automatic fire sprinkler system. These switches are wired into the monitoring control system/alarm panel to ensure the valves remain open at all times (or not tampered with.) If the tamper switches are used they will show a supervisory trouble on the panel so the monitoring company or business will know there system is out of service.
A jockey pump is a small pump connected to a fire sprinkler system and is intended to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system to an artificially high level so that the operation of a single fire sprinkler will cause a pressure drop which will be sensed by the fire pump automatic controller, causing the fire pump to start. The jockey pump is essentially a portion of the fire pump's control system.
we can control the fire by the release of carbon dioxide which can be done by a fire extinguishers
A furnace by definition provides heat. There must be something that controls that heat; that is that tells the furnace when to fire up the burners and when to shut down the burners. This function is provided by the furnace control system. Usually the control system itself is controlled by a thermostat which maintains the temperature at a preset level on the thermostat.
