Deluge Systems A Deluge System is a system
that employs open-type sprinklers that are connected to a piping system which is connected
to a water supply that is kept from filling the pipe until the deluge valve is released by the supplemental
detection system. This operates much in the same way as a preaction system. However, when
the deluge valve releases the water to the system, every
sprinkler in the system discharges (more closely resembling the typical Hollywood
depiction of a sprinkler system).
Deluge Systems provide
fast and total wettings of protected areas, and are frequently used in extra-hazard risks
such as aircraft hangars, power generating stations, and petrochemical facilities.
