Design solution 1. Fire extinguishing in manual and autonomous triggering modes
Structure of the system:
Generator of fire extinguishing aerosol GOA “Doping-2.160p” |
PATS start button |
GOA “Doping-2.160p”
Purpose:
- – fire extinguishing upon activation of the built-in thermal cord and release into the protected volume of the fire extinguishing aerosol charge;
- – fire extinguishing when electric impulse is applied to contacts of electric activator
PATS start button
Purpose:
- – start-up by the driver of fire extinguishing means
In the fire-hazardous compartments (engine compartment, heater compartment) of the vehicle, GOA “Doping-2.160p” is installed. Starting cables are laid in the driver’s cab and displayed on the start button of the PATS.
GOA “Doping-2.160p” can trigger itself from the cord of the thermal start (self-service mode), or when the PATS button is pressed by the driver, when the fire is visually detected.
Limitations on the functionality of the kit:
– visual detection of a fire by the driver (only by external signs). GOA “Doping-2.160p” in this situation will fire one at a time, as the fire spreads. Since “Doping-2.160p” is a means of volumetric quenching, a single operation of GOA, if installed more than one, may not create the necessary extinguishing concentration and not extinguish the fire that has arisen;
– there is no constant control of the start loop of GOA “Doping-2.160p”. If the starting wires are disconnected from the PATS button to GOA, when the driver’s start button is turned on, the “Doping”, naturally, will not be launched.
Recommended field of application:
– engine compartments of cars, minibuses, PAZ buses, etc. objects on which a fire arises in the immediate vicinity of the driver. Accordingly, the automatic fire detection and extinguishing system is redundant in this case.
