TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of safety protection, in particular to a water immersion alarm system. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the current heating system, secondary pipe network heat exchange station, fire pump house and water pump room and other facilities, due to space layout and actual demand, are often set in underground closed or semi-closed space. Such layout, although to a certain extent, optimizes the city space utilization, but also brings a series of potential safety hazards. First of all, these underground closed space often does not have the conditions of 24 hours personnel on duty, due to space limitation, personnel configuration and operation cost and other factors, it is difficult to realize all-weather artificial monitoring around these key facilities, which means that once the equipment fails or accident, it is difficult to be found and handled in the first time. More serious is that when the pipeline, water pump, valve and other key equipment are damaged due to aging, wear and tear or external factors, a large amount of water leakage may be caused, in the underground closed space, the leaked water cannot be quickly discharged, and it is easy to accumulate and submerge the equipment in a short time, which not only will cause direct economic loss of equipment, more importantly, it may further cause a series of serious secondary disasters. For example, electrical equipment is prone to short circuit in humid environment, which not only will damage the equipment itself, but also may cause fire and even explosion and other serious consequences. In addition, the ventilation condition in the underground closed space is usually poor, once there is flammable and explosive gas or material leakage, it is easy to form explosive mixture, further aggravating the safety risk.
[0003] Therefore, for these underground closed space heating system facilities, effective monitoring and early warning measures must be taken, which can monitor the running state of the equipment and the change of the surrounding environment in real time, and once the abnormal situation such as water level rise is detected, the system should immediately send out alarm signal, so that the relevant personnel can take measures to handle it quickly. The existing monitoring system generally relies on video monitoring, which usually has the problems of low automation degree and insufficient alarm accuracy, and this method not only is inefficient, and due to human error, it often cannot accurately judge the specific situation of water immersion.
