How Many Type of Sprinkler ?

Question

Accepted Answer

There are several types of sprinklers used in fire fighting.

There are four main types of sprinklers: upright, pendant, sidewall, and concealed.
Upright sprinklers are installed in an upright position and spray water in a hemispherical pattern.
Pendant sprinklers are installed hanging down from the ceiling and spray water in a circular pattern.
Sidewall sprinklers are mounted on the side walls and spray water in a quarter-circle pattern.
Concealed sprinklers are hidden behind a decorative plate and activate when exposed to heat.
Other types of sprinklers include deluge sprinklers, pre-action sprinklers, and foam-water sprinklers.
Deluge sprinklers release a large amount of water simultaneously when triggered.
Pre-action sprinklers require both a fire detection system and a sprinkler activation signal.
Foam-water sprinklers are designed to discharge foam concentrate mixed with water.
