Fire Safety Controller
Hardware-Enforced Fire Safety Coordinator
Hardware-enforced fire safety controller coordinating detection, suppression, compartmentalisation, and post-fire recovery.
Purpose
Hardware-enforced fire safety controller coordinating detection, suppression, compartmentalisation, and post-fire recovery.
Context
Child of L2-HAB-FIRE within the Lunar Ark system
Principles
- ▸Hardware-enforced response (no software-only path)
- ▸Multi-sensor voting before activation
- ▸Pre-discharge alarm (10 s warning)
- ▸Post-fire atmosphere recovery coordination
- ▸Authenticated emergency commands
Typical implementations
- ▸NFPA 99 fire safety standards
- ▸ISS Fire Detection and Suppression controller
- ▸Industrial fire control panels
Lunar considerations
- ▸Hardware path bypasses software for safety
- ▸Long-mission firmware updates via DTN
- ▸L1-DVT incident archive
