Microcontroller Based Autometic Fire Control & Monitoring System

Abstract

Fire alarm system plays an important role in maintaining and monitoring the safe of all kind environments and situations. However the usability of many existing fire alarm system is well known but could be produce with high cost. Subsequently, it is not affordable for the low income users. The main objective of this project is to make a fire control system with low cost. The project has three main systems, 1) the detection system, 2) the monitoring system and 3) the appliance system. The detection system operates as the fire detector. This detection system has components like flame detector, smoke detector, light detector, heat detector etc. This paper discusses the design and implementation of a fire alarm system using the microcontroller which operates the entire system. The detectors are placed in parallel in different levels. Any signal from each detector at any level is monitored using monitoring system. The appliance system has components like buzzer for alarming and motor pump to stop the fire. The entire system is controlled by microcontroller. The microcontroller is programmed in such way by using C-Programming. From the project done, the system can detects smoke, light, flame, heat etc. sensed by the detector, followed by the monitoring system which indicates smoke, light, flame, heat etc. at that particular level. Finally when the sensors form each level triggered individually, the main buzzer operates and disconnect the AC power supply. Then it shows in the control panel LCD display which area is affected and which is safe. Then it runs the emergency exit motor to escape and the water pump motor to the affected zone to stop the fire.
