The most effective and common systems include:
- Automatic complexes - equipped with special sensors that give a trigger in case of temperature rise to a critical level or in case of increased smoke.
- Gas - include in their circuit cylinders with compressed (usually carbon dioxide) gas, which prevents the combustion process. Used in rooms with equipment that is particularly sensitive to moisture.
- Modular - use special foam as an extinguishing agent. They are used in places where petrochemical products are stored (gas stations, oil refineries, fuel and lubricants warehouses).
- Blocking - blocking the air access to the room with fire due to the use of automatically closing fire-resistant shutters.
- Standard fire extinguishing schemes include fire alarm devices that provide voice and light notification, as well as control over the evacuation.
