Yes, they are. Do you have any. My husband is a sprinklerfitter and installs automatic fire sprinklers. He is an avid collector and we would be interested in seeing anything that you might have.

Sprinklers in a factory remove heat from the fire triangle.
Montag wanted Faber to turn on the air conditioning and sprinklers to prevent the Mechanical Hound from tracking him by his scent. Montag was on the run and needed to throw off the hound's ability to pick up his trail.
Sprinklers in a fire protection system are connected to a network of pipes filled with water. When a fire is detected, the heat activates the sprinkler heads, releasing water to extinguish the flames.
Yes, some bathrooms must be protected with fire sprinklers. One example is any bathroom that is accessible from a public hallway. NFPA 13.

Yes, door cut-off sprinklers can be effective in a fire, as they are designed to activate when the temperature rises due to heat from flames. These sprinklers help to control or extinguish the fire by dispersing water over the affected area. However, their effectiveness depends on proper installation, maintenance, and the specific fire conditions. In general, they can enhance fire safety by limiting fire spread and protecting egress routes.
No, sprinklers in a deluge system are "open"; no valve in the sprinkler, and an automatic valve turns on the water to all open sprinklers when a fire condition is detected.
Sprinklers can be very important in a work place. Because they are automatically triggered by fire, they can keep a small fire from becoming a big fire, especially in a part of the workplace that is not heavily populated. This reduces the chance that the workplace will be destroyed by fire, or that people will be injured or killed.
