Fire protection systems and methods provide for the protection of horizontal concealed interstitial spaces of either a solid wood joist, open bar joist or open truss construction system. The systems and methods provide and locate fire protection sprinklers to define localized heat detection areas that are over 1000 sq. ft, at least 2000 sq. ft., over 2000 sq. ft. and/or otherwise unconfined by draft curtains or other barriers.

Temporary devices and methods for providing a protected installed fire protection sprinkler assembly in an area, building, occupancy or worksite under construction and/or renovation. A protective device is embodied as a cap to house and protect the installed sprinkler assembly within an internal chamber. The protective cap includes a receiver end that forms a gription surface engagement with a peripheral surface of the sprinkler assembly. The cap provides an aerosol shield having peripheral shielded openings sufficient for heated gas to enter the internal chamber to thermally actuate the housed sprinkler assembly in the event of a fire; and yet limit the flow of aerosol paint spray and other debris into the chamber during construction or renovation activities that could damage or adversely impact sprinkler performance. The protective cap is displaced from the sprinkler assembly upon sprinkler actuation to permit the sprinkler to operate and distribute firefighting fluid without interference.

A fire protection nozzle includes a body having two frame arms having proximal ends connected to an outlet of the body, and distal ends, the two frame arms defining a frame arm plane, and a junction formed by the distal ends of the frame arms, the junction including a central bore and an outer wall. A deflector is mounted to the body, and includes a planar member having a mounting hole in a center of the planar member to receive the outer wall of the junction, and a plurality of slots on a periphery of the planar member. The plurality of slots includes first slots, second slots, third slots, and fourth slots.

The proposed technical solution relates to fire prevention equipment and can be used in industrial and civilian properties, including with an increased risk of fire, for locating hot spots, and also for efficiently extinguishing fires in facilities using automatic fire-extinguishing systems. The technical problem addressed by the claimed invention is to produce a fire-extinguishing device which does not have the drawbacks mentioned and has increased reliability, efficiency and manufacturability. The technical result of the claimed invention consists in elimination of the drawbacks of the prior art, in an increase in the reliability and manufacturability of a fire-extinguishing device and thus in an increase in the fire-extinguishing efficiency overall.

System and methods to provide ceiling-only suppression fire protection of up to fifty feet (50 ft.) of rack storage of cartoned unexpanded plastic commodities and less hazardous commodities, such as for example, Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, Class 4 and/or combinations thereof beneath a ceiling having a maximum ceiling height up to fifty-five feet (55 ft.). The systems and methods provide for hydraulic and system parameters that include a hydraulic design area based upon five to no more than twelve hydraulically most remote sprinklers spaced at a preferred sprinkler-to-sprinkler spacing of eight to ten feet (8-10 ft.) coupled to two to four branch lines tied to a common cross main supply pipe of firefighting fluid.

A fire extinguishing system for an energy storage device having a battery rack for a battery module, the fire extinguishing system including a sensing unit configured to detect when a value of one or more of a temperature of the battery module, a voltage of the battery module, or smoke from the battery module is higher than a preset threshold value; and a fire extinguishing unit configured to provide a fire extinguishing agent to the battery module when the sensing unit detects that the value is higher than the preset threshold value, the fire extinguishing unit including a heat-sensitive member. The heat-sensitive member is positioned at a battery cell vent hole for a battery cell in the battery module. The heat-sensitive member is configured to allow the fire extinguishing agent into the vent hole by being melted when a temperature of the heat-sensitive member is higher than a predetermined temperature.
