A fire safety system particularly adapted for commercial kitchen applications provides control of exhaust levels for energy efficiency and intelligently responds to fires or fire risks. In embodiments, systems may provide early warning of fire hazards or impending fires. Embodiments employ probabilistic estimates with alarms that can be canceled. Embodiments employ classifiers that can make use of alarm cancellations as a mechanism for supervised learning.

A system includes a stack of battery cells within a container. A respective valve is included in at least one of the cells for admitting the coolant into a cell interior of the at least one of the cells in the event of a thermal run away event, and for keeping the coolant out of the at least one cell otherwise.

A control system for use with a fire-fighting device includes a remote component having a touch sensitive screen configured to receive a user-requested parameter of fluid and to display a plurality of indicators associated with the fire-fighting device. The control system also includes a base component including a programmable logic controller having predefined logic stored thereon. The base component automatically controls operation of the pump based on the predefined logic and the user-requested parameter of fluid. The remote component receives signals from the base component and presents, via the touch sensitive screen, at least one of a first of the plurality of indicators indicative of a water volume associated with a first water source stored at a fire fighting device, and a second of the plurality of indicators indicative of a water pressure associated with a second water source remote from the fire-fighting device.

A fire suppression system that includes a non-rigid pouch, a quantity of suppressant, a quantity of gas, and a pressurized gas source. The non-rigid pouch that includes an exterior surface and an interior space. The quantity of suppressant, the quantity of gas, and the pressurized gas source is contained within said interior space. The pressurize gas source is configured to increase the internal pressure of the non-rigid pouch by injecting gas into the interior space. The non-rigid pouch is configured to rupture when the internal pressure exceeds a predetermined threshold pressure.

Disclosed is a pipe-type fire extinguishing equipment for extinguishing a fire inside a ship transport container, including: an agent storage part installed inside the container and storing a fire extinguishing agent for extinguishing a fire; a supply pipe installed on an upper portion inside the container and connected to the agent storage part to receive and guide the fire extinguishing agent;

spray holes communicating with the supply pipe and spraying the fire extinguishing agent, which flows through the supply pipe, to the inside of the container; opening/closing members which keep the spray holes closed and open the spray holes upon being melted by heat when a fire occurs; and an alarm sound generation unit connected to the supply pipe and generating an alarm sound by means of the fire extinguishing agent which is supplied to the supply pipe when the fire extinguishing agent is sprayed through the spray holes.

An example system for suppressing a fire condition in an aircraft includes a supply of fire suppressant agent on-board the aircraft, a conduit coupled to the supply of fire suppressant agent and configured to carry fire suppression agent, an inlet located downstream of the conduit that is coupled to the conduit and is configured to be attached to a cargo container in the aircraft to deliver the fire suppression agent directly into the cargo container, a valve connected to the conduit between the supply of fire suppressant agent and the inlet, a detector located inside the cargo container, and a computer controller in communication with the valve and in communication with the detector, and controlling operation of the valve for delivery of the fire suppression agent into the cargo container based on an output received from the detector.

A fire suppression apparatus includes a valve assembly connected to a container holding a fire suppressant. The valve assembly includes a valve body and a first disc. The valve body defines a passageway that extends between a first valve body end and a second valve body end. The first disc is disposed within the passageway. The first disc has a first disc body defining a perforation that extends completely through the first disc body.

Systems and methods are disclosed for fire suppression. One method of fire suppression may include sensing initial environmental parameters in an area of interest, and determining whether or not to enable the fire suppression system, based at least in part on the sensed initial parameters. Then subsequently sensing subsequent environmental parameters, and determining whether to enable or disable the fire suppression system, based at least in part on the sensed subsequent environmental parameters.
