Water-based suppression
Automatic fire suppression systems: sprinklers, pump stations, hydrants
For residential complexes, shopping centres, warehouses, car parks and industrial sites we design, install and maintain water-based automatic suppression: sprinkler networks (wet, dry, deluge, pre-action), water mist, fire pump stations, internal and external hydrants. Designs are approved with the fire authority and the equipment is certified.
- 4 sprinkler types + water mist
- Pump stations and hydrants
- Fire authority approval
- Water mist system at the Olympic Stadium
Types of sprinkler systems
A sprinkler head opens only when heat reaches it, so water goes only where the fire is. The system type depends on room temperature, fire load and how critical a false discharge would be.
Wet system
Pipes are always full of water; it flows as soon as a head opens. The simplest and most common type: offices, shopping centres, residential buildings, heated warehouses.
Dry system
Pipes hold compressed air or nitrogen; water enters after the valve. For places at risk of freezing: unheated warehouses, open car parks, cold stores.
Deluge system
Heads are open; the valve is released by the fire alarm and the whole zone is flooded. For fast-spreading fire risks: transformers, fuel, chemical stores.
Pre-action system
Water is released only when a detector and a head both trigger, minimising accidental discharge. Server rooms, archives, museums.
Water mist systems
High pressure turns water into very fine droplets: heat is removed quickly with little water and oxygen is limited. For large areas with many people and where water damage must stay low. At Baku Olympic Stadium we installed the water mist and FM-200 systems and service them periodically.
Fire pump stations and hydrants
The pump station gives the sprinkler and hydrant network the required pressure and flow: main electric pump, standby (diesel or second electric) pump, jockey pump, control cabinet, valves. Internal hydrants (landing valves) go on each floor, external hydrants across the site. We work with Turkuaz Pompa, Kızılkaya, Armaş, Shield and Duyar equipment.
- Pump station calculation and installation
- Pipework, gate valves, check valves
- Internal landing valves and cabinets
- External hydrants and connection to the water tank
Which sites it suits
Residential complexes and high-rise buildings, shopping centres and hotels, warehouses and logistics centres, underground and multi-storey car parks, industrial sites, stadiums and public buildings. For construction companies and fit-out contractors we work from the design stage.
How the work goes
Site visit or review of the design documents, choice of system type by fire load, hydraulic calculation, fire authority approval, equipment supply, installation and pressure test, commissioning certificate. Then periodic checks of pumps, valves and heads under an annual contract.
