Automatic Pre-action System (double interlock) is similar to the deluge sprinkler

system except that the sprinkler heads are not open; they are closed sprinklers with

the glass bulb. The pre-action valve is normally closed and operated by a separate

detection system. Activation of fire detectors will open the pre-action valve allowing

the water to enter the system piping and signal will send to fire alarm control panel.

However, the water will not flow from the sprinkler heads until the heat from the fire

activates the operating element in individual sprinklers. Opening of the deluge valve

effectively converts the system to a wet pipe sprinkler system.

The pre-action system shall be complying with the requirements of NFPA 13. The

system should provide engineered automatic water pre-action type systems include

design, installation, testing, maintenance and commissioning.

WATER SPRAY SYSTEM (double interlock)

Water Spray System is designed to protect areas that may have a fast spreading fire

engulfing the entire area. All of its sprinkler heads are already open, without any

fusible elements in the heads, and when the systems operates water flows to all

heads, allowing total coverage. The system uses the deluge valve that opens when

the separate fire detection system (double interlock) senses the fire and sends a

signal to trip the valve open. Hydraulic wet pilot detection system in addition with

electrical detection (vertical heat detectors) shall be considered.

Spray systems may also apply foam instead of water. The valve trips open and water

or foam flows through the piping and out all of the open sprinkler heads

simultaneously. Because deluge systems are designed so that all of the heads flow,

the piping requirements are much larger than for other systems.

Most deluge systems are such of size as to require a fire pump to supply the system

with adequate volume and pressure. A foam system would also require a foam

generation device.

The water spray deluge system shall be complying with the requirements of NFPA

15. The system should provide an engineered fixed water spray deluge systems

include design, installation, testing, maintenance and commissioning. Installation

and location of tapping test valve or discharge valve for deluge upstream side.

to provide 3% AFFF foam concentration, and equipped with water spray nozzles for

specific water discharge and distribution over the surface or area to be protected.

The piping system is connected to the water supply through an automatically

operated and manually actuated valve, which initiates the flow of water. An

automatic valve shall be actuated by operations of automatic detection (double

interlock) equipment installed. Hydraulic wet pilot detection system in addition with

electrical detection (vertical heat detectors) shall be considered.
