Maintenance of the automatic fire alarm system. Automatic fire alarm: maintenance

After the fire alarm is commissioned, the main thing is the question of its proper work. This requires constant control of specialists with maintenance.

Their actions are aimed at troubleshooting the elements of a complex system and ensuring relevant signal response when emergency situations occur.

Fire alarm maintenance is an important procedure requiring the maintenance of relevant documentation.

Responsibility for preventive and repair activities is borne by the head of protection facilities or the head of the serviced organization.

Right to maintenance

Maintenance of fire alarm systems and automatic installations conducts a certain organization that has permission from the Ministry of Emergency Situations.

The customer has the right to choose a company that carried out the installation of equipment and commissioning or contact any third-party company with the same duties.

As a rule, these are self-regulatory organizations of the SRO in the field of fire safety. The main thing is that the competence of employees cannot be questioned.

The parties conclude an agreement in which the requirements necessarily indicate:

  1. possible access to the elements of the fire safety system;
  2. validity of the services provided;
  3. cyclic of preventive work, including repairs.

Fire alarm service - the service agreement is under the control of the State Fire Supervision. The result of the company's activities or SRO is regulatory documents - Protocols, Vedomosti, magazines, survey acts containing a report on the conduct of activities.

Basic actions

The activities of the competent organization are conditionally divided into groups:

  • The production process at the enterprise requires a responsible approach. Therefore, after installing fire protection, the company's specialists are instructed personnel who will be responsible for job safety.
  • Providing technical assistance to operate equipment.
  • Development repair is carried out in accordance with the warranty service contract.
  • Planning inspection of fire alarm installations.
  • Checking documents where maintenance rules are indicated.
  • Compilation of recommendations where write-offs may be, repairing the facility or an increase in the period of operation. Records are entered into a "defective statement".

Necessary documentation

At objects where fire systems are maintained, the necessary documents must be.

This is what is included in this list:

  1. design and estimate documentation for the construction production of a complex of fire protection;
  2. contract with firms or SRO with license;
  3. plan-schedule of repair activities;
  4. maintenance journal, repairs;
  5. statement of mounted security and fire alarm means;
  6. acts of commissioning and acceptance of work performed;
  7. instructions for the operation of automation and control systems;
  8. schedule shift work personnel;
  9. magazine Accounting Facilities Fire Equipment;
  10. operational passports of equipment;
  11. official instructions of personnel and external employees of the enterprise.

Regulatory calculations

The rules of work aimed at servicing fire alarm involves certain frequency and requirements for the implementation of actions.

This is due to the fact that the sensors have intricate sensitive schemes. Penetration of dust, steam, cigarette smoke or small particles is fraught with the failure of the important elements of the system. Loss of detectors' service leads to a common device failure and sharply reduces the degree of safety in the room.

The procedure for events is reflected in the document on industry standards. Terms of execution may vary by agreement of the parties. This requires a substantiation associated with special conditions for the operation of the components of the fire alarm components.

If individual technical devices are not reflected in the document, the customer and the contractor can individually determine the regulations of their maintenance. At the same time, the necessary requirements prescribed in technical documentation in accordance with GOST standards are taken into account.

Regulatory document - GOST for the maintenance of fire systems

For high-rise buildings, there is a separate regulation and standards specified in the instructions that determine the repair and rules for the maintenance of fire alarm. Objects with mass accumulation of people are subject to monthly inspection. Small industrial premises are relying the service of the fire prevention complex once a quarter.

Deadlines

The technical regulation provides for a certain time interval for Maintenance of the OPS.

Every day you need to perform actions:

  • visual inspection of evacuation paths, protective equipment and important elements of signaling: detectors, detectors, communication loops, controllers for the presence of dirt and mechanical damage;
  • checking the operational qualities of detectors, the integrity of the factory seals of receiving and control devices, the position of the switching levers, according to the provisions of GOST.

Each week, employees of a company or self-regulating organization (SRO) check the state of connecting to the power supply of low-current systems, test the reserve charge of batteries. After inspection, the alarm tests are carried out twice a year in order to identify weak points.

Testing is implemented in two ways:

  1. Complete security check with fire imitation. Here is an immediate response of the alarm at risk.
  2. Selective check allows you to monitor the operation of the sensors included in the alarm system in separate areas of the object. The technique involves an artificial increase in temperature, imitation of smoke or foci of fire. The action is selected depending on the type of sensor. Tests are analogous to real situations, therefore, with high accuracy determine the fault of the elements. If necessary, experts are recommended to replace the equipment.

About the planned audit in the enterprise is reported in advance. In case of a threat to emergency situations, unscheduled control is required.

Every year, employees of the firm servicing the security and fire alarm system are required to measure grounding.

Once every three years, they control the condition of the insulating material. The more often the equipment is checked, the more efficient it works. Fault detection is a necessary procedure that can save the lives of people during a fire.

Examination results

The serving company or the organization of SROs on the results of verification of the fire alarm performance issues the corresponding act.

It specifies information:

  • address of the location of the object;
  • the date of the examination;
  • persons included in the Commission;
  • device type;
  • methods and requirements used;
  • state of the system of anti-head protection;
  • conclusion about the readiness of the signal response in emergency situations;
  • additions to the document;
  • individual information about participants in test activities indicating their position.

The act compiled in two copies is certified by the controlling service. He is signed by the head of the enterprise. During the next audit, the act must be submitted together with the maintenance journal the fire protection system.

How to keep regulatory activities

Maintenance of security and fire alarm systems at each stage of verification must be configured.

Data, taking into account the rules of GOST, put in the "Journal of Registration of Works on the PPR automatic fire extinguishing installations". The parties to the contract lead the same documents.

Periodically independent controlling bodies are checked by records so that they coincide. The integrity of the records is evidenced by numbered pages, firmware and prints of both parties.

The accounting document of the regulatory work contains information:

  1. safety instructions in the process of operation of equipment;
  2. date shutdown and power on, when the repair is carried out;
  3. complete neutralization of the complex for the time of preventive measures with the notification of state bodies of fire supervision;
  4. record when completed maintenance. It ends with the phrase: "The system is handed over to the customer in good condition for subsequent work in authores."

Order cost

An organization that has the right to serve the fire alarm, independently defines the pricing policy of service services. The cost calculation is associated with the use of tariff grid and a whole list of coefficient indicators.

The final price depends on the main factors:

  • The total area of \u200b\u200bthe room where the fire alarm is used. The smaller the size, the greater the calculation for 1M 2.
  • The number of workers in the production facilities.
  • Type and structure of the general system.
  • View of the service.

Many expert organizations offer comprehensive services for maintenance services, including video surveillance and control of access control. They can cost cheaper. There is an option to include a fire safety engineer in the staff.

Calculation of the cost of services is indicated in the commercial offer after registration of technical tasks. Audit of fire safety is organized at the enterprise voluntarily.

  • It turns out the performance of rechargeable batteries;
  • The performance of the system supplying electricity is checked;
  • Connectors and connections are given in the working state;
  • The fire system is comprehensively checked and configured;
  • Repair of the APS system;
  • There is a magazine.

Once every 3 months:

  • Full testing of the APS and fire extinguishing system. It is checked how the ventilation systems, smoke, evacuation lighting, as well as the control of elevators and power supply during the emergence of emergencies.

Once every 1 year:

  • Old fire sensors are cleaned, repaired and, if necessary, replaced with new ones;
  • Briefing on the use of a fire system;
  • The magazine is underway;
  • A certificate confirming the passage of this check is drawn up.

Legal Aspect

Industrial organizations and private companies have the procedure for the planned and unscheduled audits of the APS, which are approved by the staff of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. The rules for compliance with inspections are regulated in PB, 69-FZ "On Fire Safety" and 123-FZ "Technical Regulations on Fire Safety Requirements". Thus, the revision is necessarily carried out in the following situations:

  1. The building is operated for more than 3 years;
  2. There was a change in the category of fire safety of the room;
  3. Previous planned check was carried out more than a year ago.

Automatic low-current systems fail for various reasons by creating a dangerous situation for protected objects. The company performs technical inspection and planned repairs of APS and SOUE in civil and industrial buildings, taking into account the adjacent infrastructure, to prevent emergency and emergency situations.

What includes the service of APS and Sowe

Periodic inspection of the fire alarm and an integrated alert system is necessary on each object where these low-current networks are installed. Equipment and components are gradually wearing or morally obsolete, reducing the target efficiency.

Preventive maintenance is directed to:

  1. Preventing malfunctions of the system of alert and assistance in evacuation.
  2. Planned restoration work.

Regular one is necessarily carried out both in a warranty and post-warranty period. Technical measures maintain a long and stable functional state of automated fire-fighting systems.

The need for specialized service is due to the appointment of AUPC and SOUE. If the installation of fire extinguishing and management of evacuation, people do not have time to respond correctly on the emergence of emergencies. In the absence of timely alert, the fire can acquire a tragic nature, spread to property and cause irreparable material damage.

Basics for maintenance

A set of events is regulated by PP of the Russian Federation No. 390 dated 25.04.2012 (as amended from 03/07/2019).

According to paragraph 61, the head or other official acting by the head, must provide:

  • Regular inspection and inspection of APS and SOUE performance.
  • Maintenance and planning and preventive repair (PPR).

Preventive inspection is carried out 1 time in the reporting quarter, with the design of a regulatory act confirming the results of the inspection. The frequency of events within the framework of the CPR is established by the annual schedule, which is constituted in the development of the project of low-current systems.

Conscious avoidance of responsibilities or the fictitious conclusion of the contract is prosecuted and are subject to penalties.

The RD 009.01-96 registed the requirements for service organizations and customers. In accordance with regulatory documentation, the right to carry out service works only licensed organizations that have passed accreditation in the Ministry of Emergency Situations are entitled. Only highly specialized engineers of low-current systems and certified electrical systems are performed.

The total cost of a set of events for state organizations (municipal and other objects) is determined by the tender.

The price of maintenance services for maintenance and planned repair of low-current systems for commercial enterprises is consisted of a number of factors:

  • The cost of each specific type of work.
  • Estimated costs of purchasing materials.
  • The complexity of the work (hard-to-reach location of the elements, work at night).

For each customer, we offer an accurate and objective calculation of the cost, taking into account the design features and installation.

Today, according to the law, the installation of fire alarm is a prerequisite for the functioning of almost all enterprises, as well as the functioning of buildings and premises in which people are on an ongoing basis. But, as you know, the complex PS system requires regular maintenance, checks, adjustment.

Fire alarm service is one of the areas of services LLC "Gefest Alarm". Knowing all applicable rules, deadlines and regulatory work of fire alarm service We can offer our customers the fulfillment of this service at the highest level of quality. The company works with enterprises and organizations of Moscow, all forms of ownership, invites state budgetary institutions to cooperate.

We specialize in installing modern security systems for many years, accumulated big and skills. We work on the basis of a legally correctly compiled contract for the provision of services.

Aspects of the activities of the PS

Maintenance of fire alarm systems is to maintain in the working condition of this complex network from various sensors, cables, control panels. This concept includes:

  • Emergency (emergency) and current technical repair;
  • Planned replacement, setup and repair of some components;
  • Different procedures provided for by the rules, regulations, aimed at maintaining equipment in working condition.

Fire alarm service is warranty and periodic. Warranty and post-warranty technical measures are usually carried out by the same experts who have been installed, commissioning and installation.

We offer our customers service PS, the installation of which was ordered in our company, also serve equipment and projects developed and implemented by other firms.

Current rules and regulations

In practical terms, the event, on that fire alarm, is concluded in the implementation of the next list of regulations. It includes:

  • Cleaning (purging) system components;
  • Visual inspection of sensors, as well as check cables, contacts, switches, fuses;
  • Replacement of detected faulty components that often suffer from corrosion;
  • Check indication and alerts, both sound and visual;
  • Testing the health of grounding cables;
  • Testing (transversion) of cables, subsequent reconciliation with valid values \u200b\u200bof the revealed current and resistance testimony in components and in cable sites;
  • Setup, check, software restore.

How to produce then asps

The main components of any fire alarm system - PKU (receiving control panel), loops and sensors (detectors). The lion's time of service is led to their check. In the PKU, the Master checks the reliability of the connections, tests the functions of the device. This is a complex set of equipment responsible for performing a certain action algorithm that ASPS produces after detecting fire foci by remote detectors.

The staff of our company checks the infrastructure of the console, can also perform upgrades and reboot (software flashing). These operations are performed by the help of special instruments - programmers. The internal state of the console cabinet is checked, it is thoroughly cleaned from dust, vacuizes if necessary.

Sensor surveys are technically not the most difficult, but extremely laborious, requiring a specialist, including compliance with safety regulations. After all, detectors, most often hang in the most hard-to-reach places, on the ceiling. To carry out activities for verification, it requires special adaptations, stepladers and stairs.

For the service of the state of communications (cable transversals), special testers are used. Workers "Gefest Alarm" are armed with the most modern and accurate test equipment. Cable cable and cable checking - a very painstaking operation, requiring much attention. The trends of recent years definitely indicate the gradual replacement of wired lines of modern "air" wireless solutions. Relo-speakingrs recently fell significantly in price and became much more accessible to consumers, so the replacement of wired systems wireless today is a very relevant task.

When conducting professional actions for the service of fire alarm, the service company's specialist is inspection acts and work carried out. The company's specialists also conduct briefing for employees responsible for the customer, regarding the rules of operation of fire alarm.

The current rules of the Regulations implies the logging of the magazine which is called "Journal of Registration of Works on the R". It should be kept in the enterprise and to be presented at the request of inspectors of the controlling bodies. The magazine pages are mandatory numbered and stitched.

How much is the maintenance of automatic fire alarm

The cost of maintenance of the automatic fire safety system is determined by such factors as the size of the object, the complexity of the topology, the price and type of components (imported, domestic, wired sensors, wireless). But remembering that a good service will always be rotated to the clients, Ghefest Alarm LLC tries to keep the cost of service in minimal values, compared with the average market. At the same time, we keep a high level of quality of work, strictly fulfilling the requirements of standards and standards.

Clients of the company are often faced with a difficult choice. After all, frequent carrying out is unfavorable financially. And if it is too rare, it grows the risk of ASPS output and incorrect operation at the time of fire. That is why the correct compilation of the graph plays a big role. Periodicity is indicated in the regulations, it is usually a period of from month to six months.

You can find prices on our website in the appropriate section or use the calculator located below.

When concluding a contract, Gefest Alarm LLC will help your organization to develop an adequate schedule, thanks to which you can be confident in its trouble-free response. Before the planned visit to your facility by the employee of our company, the time of visits and the format of actions are specified. After all, all operations are made when the system is disconnected, require the suspension of the entire system.

Is it possible to serve the fire alarm not once a month, and once a quarter?

In order to check the whole, it is necessary to call a specialized organization, for example, GEFest Alarm LLC. Our employees not only examine the external state of the sensors, but also carry out full maintenance of fire alarm. During the inspection and maintenance of this system, the alert systems are inspected, as well as the APS systems. This is carried out by special tools and devices that are not available to the audited enterprise. Such an inspection gives a more accurate picture about the state of the entire fire safety system.

It is worth noting that such an inspection is carried out periodically, namely 1 time per month. This is not always notified by the owner of the enterprise some specialized organizations. Such frequency of fire alarm service in all enterprises is different. For example, if it comes to a small enterprise with a small number of visitors, the chance of a small signaling breakdown. Therefore, the system performance test can be carried out once every 3 months. If we talk about a big factory or factory, checking the fire alarm is required monthly.

The test date ranges from one day to the week. It is carried out by employees of a specialized organization, because they have the entire supply of technical means for this. They are tested by special tools in the pressure of fire water supply. It must be high and sufficient to extinguish fire in many rooms at once.

It also tests the performance of all sensors in the building and the alarm itself in each room. The good condition of the entire system makes it possible to complete the service at this stage. But in the case of any breakdown, repair is required. This is also the same organization. All work performed are recorded in a special journal.

In addition, 1 time in a quarter or more often inspection of the external state of the sensors by the employee of this enterprise. It is also fixed in the regulations. When the fire system has a timing, an unscheduled inspection of the fire safety system and replacing its details, which eventually failed. It is not too expensive in terms of fire safety. But this is very important for each employee who works in this building.

Who has the right to serve the fire alarm?

But not all the leaders of enterprises follow these rules. Therefore, when the fire situation occurs in the room, the fire alarm system does not work. And the fire causes huge financial losses, and also threatens the lives of people.

So that this does not happen, you need to know why and how to maintain a fire alarm system. First of all, you need to ask yourself a question about why the fire alarm is needed. Such a system is necessary to ensure that in the case of a fire in the building, the fire quickly wasted. Many entrepreneurs do not consider it a prerequisite, so they often ask the question, for which it is necessary to establish and maintain a fire-safety system. To correctly answer questions like this, you need to know how this system is arranged.

The essence of the fire safety system is that special sensors installed on the ceiling in the premises of the enterprise react to smoke or too hot air. When these sensors are triggered, the system notifies all the characteristic signal on the occurrence of fire. In addition, special fire extinguishers located above the sensors are triggered, and splash water to put out the focus of ignition. This is responsible for the main question, for which the security system is needed in the enterprise.

Why do you need fire alarm service?

If you do not follow the health of the system, it is possible that the fire will destroy all the enterprise in one moment. Including there may be human sacrifices. Therefore, simply - the APS is not enough. It is necessary to continue to serve it.

Namely, it is necessary to monitor the health of the sensors, and connecting the system to the water supply. It is advisable to connect the system as well as an additional container with water. This will ensure the extinguishing of the fire in the case of a sudden turning off the water supply.

The specialist in the enterprise, which is assigned to the serving organization. It is fully responsible in the event of a fire and its distribution in case the alarm has not worked. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully and regularly check its performance. But from the very beginning, the organization that has established a fire safety system is obliged to carry out the primary survey of the entire system, and register data into a special magazine.
