Abstract

See full text

The conceived invention simplifies current art methods of incorporating fire notification appliances with fire sprinkler systems by replacing vane and pressure type of waterflow switches with a single water driven generator having dual functionality. It includes power generation and activation when water moves through a sprinkler system. A notification appliance may use audible, visible, or other stimuli to alert the occupants of a fire. The system also includes a waterflow switch output to trigger an external fire/security alarm system when required and a digital controller with a delay timer to prevent false alarms due to water pressure fluctuations. Another embodiment includes both alarm monitoring and circuit supervision to enhance operation and system maintenance.
