H Hydrant network
A sprinkler system is a piping system that is terminated at several locations with
sprinkler heads. It is normally fed by the public network of hydrants. The sprinkler
station is installed directly after the house feed. It separates the sprinkler network
from the hydrant network due to overpressure in the sprinkler network. The
sprinkler station signals when the sprinkler network is opened somewhere and
water begins to flow. This condition is reported to the fire control panel via a
contact (optionally also two). This then triggers an alarm with immediate response
from the fire brigade.
In larger sprinkler systems, the piping system is distributed over several floors and
the supply network has an outlet in every floor. Flow rate indicators are built into
these outlets. These signal where exactly the water runs to and generate an
additional report for reporting to the sprinkler station.
