Fire sensor, fire detection system, fire suppression system, and combinations thereof
First Claim
1. A combination fire detection and fire suppression system, the system comprising:
- a fire detection system configured to detect an undesirably high temperature associated with an area, the fire detection system comprising a temperature sensor comprising a temperature sensor array configured to receive temperature information associated with the area, a fire alerting system associated with the temperature sensor, the fire alerting system being configured to receive information from the temperature sensor and generate a warning signal based on an undesirably high temperature associated with the area, and a fire control panel associated with the fire alerting system, the fire control panel being configured to receive the warning signal; and
a fire suppression system comprising a fire suppressant delivery system configured to provide at least one fire suppressant agent to the area associated with the undesirably high temperature.

Abstract
A combination fire detection and fire suppression system may include a fire detection system configured to detect an undesirably high temperature associated with an area. The fire detection system may include a temperature sensor including a temperature sensor array and a fire alerting system associated with the temperature sensor. The fire alerting system may be configured to receive information from the temperature sensor and generate a warning signal based on an undesirably high temperature associated with the area. The fire detection system may include a fire control panel configured to receive the warning signal. The system may also include a fire suppression system including a fire suppressant delivery system configured to provide at least one fire suppressant agent to the area associated with the undesirably high temperature.
