Fire System Sprinkler Heads

Fire system sprinkler heads are an essential component of any fire safety system, as they disperse water over the affected area to contain and extinguish fires. Sprinklers can be activated by a variety of methods depending on their design, from the activation of a heat sensitive element within the sprinkler head to a monitored detection system linked to the sprinkler head. Inside each sprinkler head is a frangible glass bulb or fusible link that breaks when heated, allowing pressurized water to flow out of the sprinkler head. The process is rapid and efficient, containing a larger blaze with minimal damage and protecting life and property.
