2. Heat detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_detector

   Rate-of-Rise (ROR) heat detectors operate on a rapid rise in element temperature of 6.7 to 8.3°C (12.1 to 14.9°F) increase per minute, irrespective of the starting temperature. This type of heat detector can operate at a lower temperature fire condition than would be possible if the threshold were fixed.

3. Adiabatic flame temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_flame_temperature

   The constant volume adiabatic flame temperature is the temperature that results from a complete combustion process that occurs without any work, heat transfer or changes in kinetic or potential energy. Its temperature is higher than in the constant pressure process because no energy is utilized to change the volume of the system (i.e., generate ...

4. Cool flame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_flame

   A typical temperature increase upon ignition of a cool flame is a few tens of degrees Celsius whereas it is on the order of 1,000 °C (1,830 °F) for a hot flame. [2] [13] Most experimental data can be explained by the model which considers cool flame just as a slow chemical reaction where the rate of heat generation is higher than the heat loss.

5. Flame detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_detector

   A flame detector is a sensor designed to detect and respond to the presence of a flame or fire, allowing flame detection.Responses to a detected flame depend on the installation, but can include sounding an alarm, deactivating a fuel line (such as a propane or a natural gas line), and activating a fire suppression system.

6. Fire alarm system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_alarm_system

   A fire alarm control panel Fire alarm speaker and pull station. Fire alarm systems are composed of several distinct parts: Fire alarm control panel (FACP), or fire alarm control unit (FACU): This component, the hub of the system, monitors inputs and system integrity, controls outputs, and transmits information.

7. Flame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame

   This high flame temperature is partially due to the absence of hydrogen in the fuel (dicyanoacetylene is not a hydrocarbon) thus there is no water among the combustion products. Cyanogen, with the formula (CN) 2, produces the second-hottest-known natural flame with a temperature of over 4,525 °C (8,177 °F) when it burns in oxygen. [11] [12]

8. System Sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Sensor

   The SpectrAlert series included horn strobes, strobes, remote horns, chimes, chime strobes, speakers, and speaker strobes. A main feature of these alarms was the ability to sync them using a System Sensor MDL sync module or the System Sensor sync protocol on a supported fire alarm control panel. Three years after the initial release of the ...

9. Annunciator panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annunciator_panel

   A fire alarm annunciator panel is located where it is accessible to fire-fighting crews, such as at building entrances/exits. The annunciator panel will indicate the system status using lamps (or LEDs), an audible warning tone, and depending on the system technology, the exact location or approximate physical location of the source of a fire ...
