Fire breaks out in the Galley, what installed system(s) can be deployed?
APC (Aqueous Potassium Carbonate) will activate automatically (by a fusible link) when the temperature reaches 360°
How do you support the fire main upon reduction of pressure?
Segregate the Zebra valve (in Tillamook)
The Fire Lifecycle
•Growth- Low temperature, fire is localized in vicinity of its origin
•Rollover- Formation of flame front of burning gases across the overhead of the space
•Flashover- Sudden spread of flame to all remaining combustibles in the fire space
•Fully Developed- All combustibles in the space are burning. Burning limited only by the amount of oxygen available. Space may be too hot, require indirect attack
•Decay- Fire consumes all available fuel, combustion slows (decays) and dies out
