The homebuilding industry has responded by seeking state preemption of local aut...
متن کاملMicrocontroller Based Fire Protection System
Realization of microcontroller based real time fire protection system is considered and described in the paper. Given solution is based on application of microcontroller AT89S8253. The system is consisted of set of sensors connected to control device (microcontroller module). Control, monitoring and diagnostic are performed via computer of PC type serially connected with control device. Charact...
متن کاملSIL Rating Fire Protection Equipment
SIL's (Safety Integrity Levels) are used by IEC 61508:1998 [1] to characterise the required functional safety of computer control systems. For example, SIL 4, the highest rating is for fly by wire aircraft and weapons systems and track circuited train signalling systems while SIL 2 is typical of certain Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). Fire control panels have not been SIL rated to date ev...
متن کاملBehaviour of Passive Fire Protection K-Geopolymer under Successive Severe Fire Incidents
The performance of a fire resistant coating for tunnel passive fire protection under successive severe thermal loading is presented. The material falls under the class of potassium based geopolymers (K-geopolymer) and was prepared by mixing ferronickel (FeNi) slag, doped with pure alumina, with a highly alkaline potassium hydroxide aqueous phase. Its performance was assessed by subjecting a con...
