IFDSS BMP

Instant Fire Detection and Suppression System (IFDSS) is a micro controller based fire detection and suppression system for vehicle and Tanks. The system automatically detects the fire in the crew compartment and overheat / fire condition of the engine compartment. Suppression is carried out instantly by the system in two modes namely; Automatic and Manual.

IR sensors of the Detector Unit detects the fire in crew compartment and built-in control logic sends the confirmation of fire to Master Control Unit (MCU) using Control Area Network (CAN) protocol. MCU then activates the audio visual alarm and actuates the squib of fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire instantly.

Fire-wire used in Engine compartment, is a flexible heat detecting wire, having one or more elements joined in series by means of various connector accessories. It is simply a linear Thermal Detector, which is directly interfaced with the Main Control Unit. It’s logic is designed for detection “Over Heat”, “Fire”, “Open Circuit” and “Short Circuit” conditions

The system has feature of continuous health monitoring of Detector Units, Alarm and Flasher unit, Fire wire and on demand connectivity check for the Fire Extinguishers. The system also has the features like Built in Test facility (BITE) and Audio-Visual indication of “Over Heat” and “Fire” conditions in Engine compartment.
