Apparatus for monitoring the fire extinguishing condition of automatic fire extinguishing equipment which is adapted to detect flames and spray a fire extinguisher liquid from a nozzle to extinguish a fire. The apparatus comprises a detector for generating a signal corresponding to the light energy radiated by the flames and a fire determination circuit for determining that the fire extinguisher liquid is hitting the flames when the detector signal has a DC component but has no AC component, since the AC component corresponds to flicker of the flame and ceases when the fire is sprayed with the fire extinguisher liquid. |
