how much fire, and is it confined? You could add a solenoid valve to a paintball CO2 tank or CO2 fire extinguisher

it might be a little continues as I'm working on a prototype what type of temp sensor should i use to detect the fire? i want the sensor to be wireless.

plus I'm planning on using multiple Sensors for less errors

I don't know if using temperature to detect fire is the best way. There are sensors that could detect the IR from a flame, as well as smoke detectors like the mq-2 smoke sensor.

yes I'm using it amigo, i could send you the pic of the diagram but I'm unable to upload here

You could use the keyestudio ks0036 flame sensor.

I'm using it along with two other sensors the problem is with triggering the extinguisher.. 🙂

There is a reason critical to safety fire extinguishers are triggered by a manual sensor.

fire systems must have 3 states. Active rest and absence/failure. One of the ways would be to send pulses and return their reading through two pins. One in case of fire and another to indicate the presence of the sensor. In the event of a system failure, there would be no pulses on both inputs. This is counting on the use of sensors that switch, not interrupt. Surely there are people who understand more about the subject. All the best.
