Embodiment Construction

[0080]FIG. 1 shows, schematically and by way of example, a fire extinguishing installation 1 according to the invention for protecting, in particular for fighting a detected fire in, at least one protected area 200. The fire extinguishing installation 1 comprises a fluid line network with a fluid line 120 and multiple extinguishing nozzles 100 connected to the fluid line 120. In a preferred case, the fire extinguishing installation 1 also has sensor means, for example as part of the extinguishing nozzles 100, which sensor means are configured for detecting fires. The fire extinguishing installation 1 is then also designed for monitoring the one or more protected areas 200.

[0081]The extinguishing nozzle 100 is configured for receiving energy. In this exemplary embodiment, the extinguishing nozzle 100 is configured for receiving energy 142 from an energy transmitter 140. The energy transmitter 140 may for example be configured for transmitting electromagnetic energy in the form of light

Abstract

The invention relates to an extinguishing nozzle of a fire extinguishing installation for selectively identifying and fighting fires in at least one protected area, and to an associated fire extinguishing installation and to a method for operating an extinguishing nozzle. The extinguishing nozzle comprises i) a communication unit which is configured for communicating with a fire detector and/or extinguishing control station of the fire extinguishing installation, ii) a control element which is configured for controlling the extinguishing nozzle, wherein the extinguishing nozzle is connectable to at least one fluid line and the control element is configured for selectively enabling and/or shutting off a passage of an extinguishing fluid, which is flowing in the fluid line, through the extinguishing nozzle, and iii) an energy harvester which is configured for providing energy for at least the communication unit and the control element by means of energy harvesting.
