Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0650743A1] The invention relates to a fire extinguishing system for railway vehicles, having a stationary container (1) for extinguishing fluid which can be acted upon by compressed air via a non-return valve (3), and having an extinguishing-agent line (8) which is connected to the stationary container (1) and has a throughflow indicator (12) and sprinklers (9). In order reliably to avoid extinguishing fluid passing into the compressed-air system and compressed air escaping from the sprinklers (9), the container (1) has a fluid reservoir (2) which separates compressed air and extinguishing fluid, is suitable for being acted upon by compressed air and has at least one connection to the extinguishing-agent line (8), said connection being independent of and separate from compressed-air connections on the container (1). <IMAGE>
