FIRE ALARM SYSTEM  is designed to detect the unwanted presence of fire by monitoring environmental changes associated with combustion. In general, a fire alarm system is classified as either automatically actuated, manually actuated, or both. Automatic fire alarm systems are intended to notify the building occupants to evacuate in the event of a fire or other emergency, report the event to an off-premises location in order to summon emergency services, and to prepare the structure and associated systems to control the spread of fire and smoke.  The examples of the fire alarm equipments are Smoke Detector, Heat Detector, Manual Pull Station (Manual Call Point).  Five parts of Fire Alarm System can work together very well.
