Area Type of Detector


Above false ceiling of Ionisation type smoke detectors
Control room

Cable galleries photoelectric smoke detectors and liner heat
Sensing cables

Fuel oil pump house Flame proof type MCPs

Transformer yard Pedestal mounted MCPs
& switchyard

16.6 Rate of Rise of Temperature Detector with Fixed Temp. Element

These shall be resettable type i.e., the same detector shall be capable
of being reset after it goes to the alarm state.

16.7 Ionisation Smoke Detectors

16.7.1 This detector shall be capable of detecting a fire both in its incipient or
smouldering stages as well as visible flames. To meet this requirement
the detector shall respond to visible combustion products in the form of
smoke as well as in visible particles, aerosols and pyrolysis products
from a clear burning fire.

16.7.2 Radio active material used in ionisation smoke detector shall be such
as not to have any harmful effect on the personnel in the area where
installed even if the area is continuously inhabited. The radiation shall
be in the range 0.5 micro curie to 0.9 micro curie.

16.8 Optical Smoke Detectors

Optical smoke detectors shall work on light scattering principle.

16.9 Linear Heat Detection System (LHS)

16.9.1 Linear heat detection system shall be provided in area below false
floor & in cable galleries.

16.9.2 Linear heat detection system shall essentially comprise sensor cables,
interface units and necessary hardwares required for installation.

16.9.3 Sensor cable shall be of analogue type and shall consist of four copper
conductors, each covered with a colour coded, negative temperature
coefficient insulating material. The cores shall be twisted and protected
by an outer sheath of FRLS PVC compound.

16.9.4 Linear heat sensor cables shall be run on all the trays below the false
floor of the control room. The sensor cables in cable vault end shall be
supported from ceiling to cover the top most tray and from underside of
the cable trays for bottom tiers.

16.10 The quantity of fire detectors and call points to be installed in each of
the areas shall be based on an average coverage area mentioned
below. The zones of individual detectors shall overlap and no blind
zone shall be left. However, the actual quantity of detectors required,
taking into consideration the obstruction due to floor beams, etc., so as
to obtain complete coverage, shall be worked out by the Contractor
based on the final drawings of the various buildings during detailed
engineering.

16.10.1 35 to 45 sq.m per smoke detector for general application areas
considering an average room height of 5.5m.

16.10.2 15 to 20 sq.m per detector for I&C panel room, control room, relay
room, etc., in view of value concentration.

16.11 Each detector shall be provided with an indicating lamp glowing
steadily to indicate that it has operated which will otherwise flash
intermittently to indicate the healthy condition of the detector and
sensing circuits.

16.12 When the detectors are mounted below the false floor or in inaccessible
position, response indicator for each of the detectors and test switch
shall be mounted on a separate box which shall be suitable for
mounting on the wall. If the detectors are mounted above the false
ceiling, response indicators with test switch shall be mounted directly
below the detector (on the false roof).

16.13 Manual call points shall be provided as per the guidelines listed in
NFPA 72E/IS 2189. Also, they shall generally be located near all the
entrances/exists for all buildings.

16.14 Contractor shall prepare layout drawings indicating the locations of
detectors, manual call points duly taking into account the regulations of
local fire authorities and submit for Owner / Owners representatives
approval.
