Key advancements in fire detection and suppression: Smart Sensors: Systems utilize advanced sensors like infrared (IR) detectors and linear heat detectors (Fire Wire) for precise fire and overheat detection in different areas (e.g., crew compartments and engine compartments). Automated Suppression: Upon fire detection, systems automatically activate fire extinguishers (e.g., using Halon 1301) and trigger alarms, both visual and audible, to alert personnel. Hybrid Systems: Combining the benefits of conventional and addressable systems, hybrid systems offer flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and robust fire detection capabilities according to Innovation Vent. Aspirating Smoke Detection: Systems like XTRALIS use aspirating smoke detectors to detect smoke before it becomes visible, providing early warnings for critical infrastructure and business continuity
