Many types of sprinklers that can be classified according to its activation temperature, fast opening, orifice size of sprinkler discharge or flow rate, type of fuse element, jet application form, coverage area waterjet among many other factors involved in risk analysis and project design by the specialist (fire sprinkler hydraulic calculations).
In 1902 Frederick Grinnell patented the design Grinel alarm check valve. Water system Grinnell. A - short tube diameter of half an inch, screwed into a water pipe and closes flat bottom valve b; valve lever is held and backup c d. Backup d attached to the copper arc e apparatus with a weak solder which melts at a temperature of 73 degrees C.
There are other automatic, instead of the capsule are connected to a fire detector which sends an automatic valve that opens when the detector knows of a fire. When quenched, the switch closes the valve and, if applicable, would open again if the fire is revived. Systems differ from sprinklers sprayed water on the element that disperses the water these last is a mouthpiece designed to offer an angle of fog.
Fuse trip. The plug is held in position by a mechanism formed by two metal plates joined with a weld, with a melting point of carefully calibrated. In a blaze, the heat generated softens the solder, causing the water pressure acting on the cap and then disarm the system to skip the plug, allowing the escape of liquid. The water goes through the hole and strikes against a sheet, designed to distribute the jet way to rain (deflector). Each spray has its own fuse, so that only those sprinklers that are in zone of influence of trigger.
Thermo-sensitive bulb. The most common sprinkler glass bulb holds the cap in place and containing therein a liquid that does not fill the bulb, leaving a gap. When heat from a fire acts on bulb, the liquid boils and vapor pressure breaks the glass stopper and then releases the pressurized water contained pipe network, download and poured over the baffle forming a jet sprayed water mist.
According to statistics in case of activated fire sprinkler-systems 40% of the time the fire was extinguished by sprinklers, 80% of flames is extinguished when triggered no more than 10 sprinklers. On this basis, taking into account the area, protected by a single sprinkler (12 square meters is determined by the area, which is needed to irrigate the maximum flow of water sprinkler-system. For the first group space area is 120 square meters.
Another way to activate a sprinkler is associated with flame detector which opens the closed spray, which in this case is a solenoid valve (solenoid valve) when a flame occurs in area protected by the sprinkler. The advantage of this system is that, once the blaze is out, the water outlet is cut and, if reignite, reopens. With the system of sensitive element, it would take someone off the water supply or water damage could exceed those caused by the inferno.
First installation started in late XIX century, after the Englishman Stuart Harrison in 1864, has developed a sprinklers. Further development of sprinkler systems associated with the names of Americans Henry Parmelee and Frederick Grinnell. By 1882 in the United States for 200 enterprises was established about 200 thousand. Sprinkler-design Parmelee. During the same year in England the first such installation was witnessed.
