Automatic Fire Protection System for Manned Hyperbaric Chambers. Phase II. Prototype Design, Fabrication and Test. Volume B. Operators Manual.

Abstract

A fire protection system for a hyperbaric chamber is briefly described. The major components of the fire protection system are two infrared detectors, one ionized particle detector, a water delivery system consisting of sprinkler nozzles and a hand line, and a control panel. The number of detectors which must sense a fire before activation of the water delivery system is variable. Procedures are described for setting the system in service and for maintaining it. Safety precaustions are also included. (Author)
