Sprinkler System Operation (General)

An automatic sprinkler system is a network of pipes and regularly spaced sprinkler heads normally located at roof/ceiling level that is connected to a source of water. In most configurations, the sprinkler head is sealed closed by a mechanism (typically a glass bulb) that is designed to release when heated to a set fixed temperature, allowing water to discharge, strike the sprinkler head’s deflector and form an umbrella-like spray pattern over the fire. Each sprinkler head operates independently. In most cases a flow switch is integrated with the system. When the flow switch detects the flow of water, it sends an electronic signal to the building alarm system which then sounds an audible alarm and notifies the fire department that the system has been activated.

Vortex

HYBRID FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM

Victaulic Vortex™ is a dual agent fire extinguishing system designed for use in water sensitive facilities from data centers to power generation plants. With 95 years of fire safety product innovation as a foundation, this method is a revolutionary water and nitrogen fire extinguishing system for special hazards. This advanced fire protection device resolves issues inherent in most other systems for facilities with contents that could be destroyed or rendered inoperable by water damage.

Through water droplets smaller than white blood cells and a naturally occurring gas – nitrogen, discharged from a single emitter, Victaulic Vortex™ hybrid fire suppression system efficiently absorbs heat and reduces oxygen to extinguish fires.

Nearly zero wetting
No costly clean-up or equipment replacement
Quick system recharge, minimal downtime
No need for assurance of tight room integrity
Green design that is safe for the environment and personnel
