Abstract

A fire detection and/or extinguishing control station for actuating two extinguishing agent supply devices using a control unit. After actuating a first extinguishing agent supply device (17) upon detection of a first fire signal at time (t1), the control station is additionally equipped to actuate a second extinguishing agent supply device (18) upon detection of a second fire signal at time (t2) if the control station has checked whether the time (t2) fulfills the inequality (t1+tc)<t2<(t1+tb), where (tc) represents a discharge time of the complete or partial discharge of at least one extinguishing agent container (1) of the first extinguishing agent supply device (17), (tk) represents a check time connected to the discharge time (tc), and (tb) represents a monitoring time period, and the monitoring time period (tb) is the sum of the discharge time (tc) and the check time (tk) beginning at time (t1).
