Fire alarm system is a combination of number of devices working together to detect and warn the people through a visual and audible appliances when smoke and/or fire are present. The alarm used in such system may be activated from flame or smoke detectors and heat detectors. Alarms can be either motorized bells or wall mountable sounders or horns. Fire alarm system plays the main role in maintaining and monitoring the safety in all kinds of environments and situations. However, the usability of many existing fire alarm and detection system is well known but the primary constraint is the high cost. The main objective of this Fire Alarm Control System in Building Automation Using PLC is to make a fire control and suppression system with high reliability and low cost. The Fire Alarm Control System based on PLC has three main systems: 1) the detection of fire, 2) the monitoring system and 3) the appliance system in which the main door will get opened and lift will come to ground floor for safety purpose. The detection system operates as the fire detector. This detection system has components like bimetallic strips as a flame detector, smoke detector, and heat detector.
