Fire fighting hyper mist Automation System

Abstract

In marine industries, we are exposing plenty of risk which can damage the ship, machinery even injured and fatality of personnel life. One of the risks that we might be face is fire on board. Mostly fire will start from the machinery spaces because there plenty of combustible material and fire risk activity. There are plenty equipment for fighting the fire onboard which need the knowledge and manpower for work on it. There also a fixed fire fighting on board which focusing of the area which have high risk of fire starting. One of them is Hypermist Fire Fighting System. Some of the ship will have Unmanned Machinery System(UMS)  which the engine room will unmanned at UMS Period. Duty personnel only rely on the UMS alarm system which fix at common area at accommodation.  At this time, any fire can be start due to continuous running of the engine. The aim of this paper is to describe the simple program on a low-priced system using a microcontroller unit (MCU) as a central brain. This design is plot using the Proteus Software and later will be do the prototype for testing the functionality. The coding is complied at PIC C Complier, then were program into microcontroller using a programmer for PIC 8-bit microcontroller. This paper also will introduce the efficiency of the fire monitoring which will give alarm and automatic distinguish system with the input received. The main objective by this system is to make the fast respond if have any fire emergency especially when engine room in UMS condition.  It will give also the Tank Level Monitoring for the hypermist tank which will reduce the load work of the personnel to check and monitor the level of the tank every time.
