Fire Fighting System
The basic principle of firefighting is simply based on the extraction of one of the components of the fire triangle. This can be achieved by eliminating either the fuel, oxygen or the ignition sources. Once one of the components of the fire triangle is removed from completing the reaction the resultant fire will be curbed. It is best to avoid the three components reacting together than removing one of them from an already completed reaction which has resulted to fire.
However, unplanned to habitants of facility there could be a fire breakout which will need some technologically engineered system to purge the burning flame. Some of this approach can be automated, manual or a hybrid where there will be some level of human activation before the automated process starts.
Firefighting involves alerting; this is a phase where the emergency has been identified either by audio or visual by the fire alarm system, after which the response system comes into play. These response systems can either be a suppression system by the use of an agent, water or foam based solution. In some cases the response system can be a total shut down of the facility, a process that has been automated at the installation and commissioning phase as prescribed by the client.
Below are some of these aforementioned systems.

Fire Alarm System
So in the event of a fire, the fire panel will display the exact device (detector or call point) that signaled the alarm, allowing the fire to be located more quickly. .
On a Conventional System or 2 Wire Systems, there are often more than 10 detectors on a zone, so by examining the main panel, the user only knows that one of these ten detectors has signaled an alarm, meaning that further investigation is required to locate the fire. .
This device addressability is considered to be the main advantage of an addressable fire alarm system, however there are also other benefits including cabling, alarm history, programmability and more. .
FM-200 Fire Suppression System
FM200 is a synthetic/chemical fire suppression gas and extinguishes a fire by removing the free radicals or heat elements from the fire triangle. (Oxygen, Heat and Fuel). .
The typical concentration of an FM200 system is normally between 7.9% to 8.5%. This concentration is determined by the risk that is being protected and by the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and the ISO14520 standards for fire suppression systems. .
FM200 systems reach extinguishing levels in 10 seconds or less, stopping ordinary combustible, electrical, and flammable liquid fires before they cause significant damage. FM200 extinguishes the fire quickly, which means less damage, lower repair costs. Like any other fire suppression system, FM200 systems are designed with an extra margin of safety for people. Refilling FM200 is simple and cost effective, therefore, it also means less downtime and disruption to your business.
