Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire control and remote intelligent management, and in particular to a fire pump management system and method based on optical cable remote control and status monitoring. Background Art

[0002] Currently, fire pump start / stop control and operational status monitoring primarily rely on the following methods: local control, centralized monitoring systems, and wireless communication. The control principle is that the control center issues start or stop commands to the pump control unit via a communication link. The pump control unit receives and executes the command, providing feedback on the current status. Status feedback typically includes start, stop, or fault indication signals, which are transmitted to the monitoring center via lights, buzzers, or simple network uploads.

[0003] Although the existing system has certain control and monitoring functions, it still has obvious shortcomings in remote communication stability, feedback real-time and intelligence, mainly reflected in: limited communication distance, poor link stability, few status feedback dimensions, non-standardized interfaces, lack of link connectivity detection and modular deployment capabilities.

[0004] The root causes of the above problems are: the limited selection of communication links in traditional systems, the lack of state redundancy design, closed interfaces, and non-modular system architecture, which make it difficult to meet the actual needs of modern fire protection systems for high reliability, adaptability, remote control and intelligent monitoring. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention proposes a fire pump management system and method based on optical cable remote control and status monitoring to solve the above technical problems.

[0008] Furthermore, the receiving module includes an optical signal receiver, an execution control unit, a status acquisition module and a second network interface. The execution unit drives the fire pump to operate according to the received optical signal. The status acquisition module collects the operating status of the fire pump in real time and transmits it back to the fire control center through an optical cable link.

[0009] Furthermore, the status monitoring and alarm module includes a link on-off detector and a module working status monitoring unit. The link on-off detector detects the on-off status of the optical cable link through periodic optical signal heartbeats, and the module working status detection unit monitors the status of the first network interface, the second network interface and the power supply status of the module.

[0010] Furthermore, the fire remote control management software system platform communicates with the sending module and the receiving module through the first network interface and the second network interface respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, the optical cable link is a single-mode or multi-mode optical fiber.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes an industrial Internet platform. The fire remote control management software system platform is integrated with the industrial Internet platform through a data protocol to achieve information collaboration of fire alarm, video surveillance and emergency linkage.

[0013] In a second aspect, a fire pump management method based on optical cable remote control and status monitoring is provided, which is based on any of the above-mentioned fire pump management systems based on optical cable remote control and status monitoring, including: The fire control center generates control instructions through the sending module and converts them into optical signals; The receiving module analyzes the optical signal and controls the fire pump to start and stop; The receiving module collects the operating status, fault information and power status of the fire pump in real time and transmits it back to the control center via the optical cable link; The status monitoring and alarm module detects the on / off status of the optical cable link and the equipment operating parameters, and issues abnormal warnings through the fire remote control management software system platform and uploads them to the industrial Internet platform.

[0014] Furthermore, the operating status includes start status, stop status, fault type, power status, communication link interruption and device offline information.
