Abstract
A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) combustion suppression system. The HVAC combustion suppression system includes a sensor that detects and emits a signal indicative of a refrigerant released from an HVAC system into an enclosed space. The system also includes a suppression component that blocks or reduces combustion of the refrigerant in the enclosed space, and a controller that receives the signal from the sensor. The controller in response to the signal activates the suppression component to suppress combustion of the refrigerant in the enclosed space.
Claims21
A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) combustion suppression system, comprising:
- a sensor configured to detect a refrigerant released from an HVAC system into an enclosed space and to emit a signal indicative of the refrigerant;
- a suppression component configured suppress combustion of the refrigerant in the enclosed space;
- and
- a controller configured to receive the signal from the sensor and actuate the suppression component to suppress combustion of the refrigerant in the enclosed space.
A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) combustion suppression system, comprising:
- a sensor configured to detect a combustion event in an enclosed space and to emit a signal indicative of the combustion event;
- a suppression component configured to extinguish the combustion event;
- and
- a controller configured to receive the signal from the sensor and activate the suppression component to extinguish the combustion event in the enclosed space.
A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) combustion suppression system, comprising:
- a sensor configured detect a refrigerant and/or a combustion event in an enclosed space and to emit a signal indicative of the refrigerant and/or the combustion event;
- an electronic device;
- and
- a controller configured to receive the signal from the sensor and transmit a warning message to the electronic device.
