The system start select switch on the main control panel must always be set to AUTO & MANUAL position for automatic start. (The automatic activation with the fire alarm system is possible only in this mode.)

Starting:

Automatic Start: Water mist system will be automatically released into the protected area where fire is detected by the fire alarm system (both smoke and flame detectors), and an audible and visible alarm is activated in that protected area.

Manual Start: Water mist system can be started manually from the control panel and from the local points whenever needed, independent of the fire alarm system.

High-pressure water is injected through a special nozzle breaks the water droplets into fine mist.
Cooling effect (quick cooling by evaporation latent heat)
Oxygen replacement effect (replacement of air with water vapor generated in a large quantity, and absorption of radiation heat)

Solenoid valve will open for the particular location
Solenoid distribution valve

* Good practice is to remove the nozzle from time to time to clean the filter.
