The basic working principle of automated fire suppression systems involves three key steps:
Detection: Sensors and detectors identify the presence of fire or excessive heat. These could be smoke detectors, heat sensors, or flame detectors. Activation: Once a fire is detected, the system triggers an alarm and activates the suppression mechanism. Extinguishment: The chosen extinguishing agent is released to quench the fire, either by cooling it, smothering it, or interrupting the chemical reaction.
