When this sounds off, you need to get out of the building right away. The common fire alarm system is activated by any pull stations next to stairs or exits, by smoke detectors in the hallways of the building, and by water flowing out of a sprinkler head anywhere in the building. It is actually connected to the common fire alarm system of the whole building. The red Gentex (Brand Name) strobe alarm is called a "mini horn/strobe".
For the sprinkler head to spray water, the temperature of the room is already quite high, and by that time you should have left the apartment. Sprinkler heads are there to protect the property and prevent the rapid spread of fire that's already in the room. Breathing smoke from the materials in your apartment can and will kill you, so this safety feature gets you out of danger quickly before the smoke becomes a real danger. Smoke detectors on the ceiling are there to give you an alert quickly that there's even just a little smoke starting to build up in the room. You mention 3 different fire safety features of the apartment building you're in.
