Disclosed are fire extinguishants comprising from about 20% to about 80% by weight of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HFO-1233zd) and from about 20% to about 80% by weight of 1,1,1,2,2,4,5,5,5-nonafluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pentanone (FK5-1-12), and to methods, systems and containers which use the fire extinguishants.

A panel (10) for use as a fire suppressing system which comprises a substrate (12) and an exothermic gas producing charge (14) wherein the exothermic gas producing charge (14) is integral with the substrate.

A method for estimating firefighting data includes: obtaining firefighting condition data of a site, wherein the firefighting condition data comprises information on firefighting equipment, information on flammable articles; and estimating firefighting input data and firefighting damage data based on the firefighting condition data using a simulation analysis model, wherein the simulation analysis model is created based on firefighting condition data, firefighting input data and firefighting damage data of different sites.

A system and a method for controlling temperature in different zones of a premises. A method includes receiving a measurement of temperature sensed by a first fire detector positioned at a first zone of a premises. The method further includes receiving a measurement of temperature sensed by a second fire detector positioned at a second zone of the premises. The method also includes controlling the temperature by a thermostat in the first zone based on the measurement of the sensed temperature received from the first fire detector and in the second zone based on the measurement of the sensed temperature received from the second fire detector.

An automatic smoke/carbon monoxide evacuation system for a building having at least one existing ventilation fan and at least one ventilation passageway to outside the building is provided. The system includes a microprocessor and a smoke/carbon monoxide sensor coupled to the microprocessor and configured to detect presence of smoke/carbon monoxide and send a trigger signal to the microprocessor in response to detecting smoke/carbon monoxide. A power switch is coupled to the existing ventilation fan and is configured to automatically connect the existing ventilation fan to a power source in response to the trigger signal, so that the ventilation fan rotates at a high speed to ventilate the detected smoke/carbon monoxide via the existing ventilation passageway. An alarm device is further communicably coupled to the microprocessor and is configured to issue an alarm in response to the trigger signal.

Disclosed are fire extinguishant which comprises HFO-1224yd and methods, systems and container using such fire extinguishant.
