1. There had 2 types of fire engine fire detection system a. Spot-detection type : i.

have individuals switches used to detact fire ii. usually placed where fire likely to occur b. continuous- loop type : i. utilize only one switch in form of long tube ii. a small diameter tube run completely around engine nacelle or tail cone iii. allowing more complete coverage of detection. 2. Thermal switch fire detection system is a spot-type detection system. Each of the sensors consist of bimetallic thermoswitch that are closed and complete the circuit when heated to a predetemined temperature. 3. Thermal switch fire detection system is a spot-type detection system, and for that reason, it utilize a number of thermal switches in that system. 4. Continous-loop type system 5. In a thermocouple fire warning system, the detectors trigger by the rate of temperature rise rather than a preset temperature, it will light the warning light if the temperature of serounding air rises too rapidly. If the termocuope heat slowly, then the warning light will not trigger. 6. Direct current 7. False fire warning is likely to occur because of intermitten short circuit in detection system warning. 8. A fire extinguishing system are designed to dilute oxygen levels to a point that does not support combustion or to reduce the tempereture below the ignition point. 9. Both Kiddie and Fenwall continuous loop fire protection system function an overheat sensing element that varies in length a. Fenwall = when fire or overheat condition occur, the core resistance drops and current flows between the center conductor and ground, energizing the alarm system. b. Kiddie = when fire or overheat occurs, the resistance of thermistor meterial drop, allowing current to flow between the two wires to activate an alarm. 10. There have three element that must be present in order to get fire, combustible fuel, oxygen, and heat. 11. A group of fire extinguisher agents that no longer manufactured is halogenated hydrocarbon. 12. Fire extinguishing agents is distributed electrically firing catridge units within the extinguisher discharge heads. The firing unit are controlled by switches or fire control handles in the flight crew compartment, in some aircraft control may also be automatic in the event of landing. 13. The discharge catridges used with HRD containers are life-limited and the service life is calculated from the manufacturers date stamped on the catridge. The discharge catridge is ignited electrically and it is used to fires a projectile into the frangible disk.

14. HRD system typically utilize haligenated hydrocarbins typically consist of a container to hold the extinguishing agent, at least one bonnet assembly and series of high-pressure feedline. 15. Red disc is set to rupture and discharge the carbon dioxide overboard if the cylinder pressure becomes excessively high (about 2650psi) Yellow disc will ruptures whenever a bank of bottles has been emptied by normal discharge. 16. the extinguishing agent is released within one to two seconds by an electrically actuated explosive that ruptures a frangible disk. Once broken, the disk fragments collect in a strainer while the extinguishing agent is directed to the engine nacelle. 17. It is used to indicate the pressure of the bottle, and an electrical pressure switch is mounted on each bottle to activate a bottle discharge light on the instrument panel when the pressure on the agent bottle is below limits.
