Product Spotlight – Crisis EVC Master Station
Emergency Voice Communication Systems (EVCS) are used to provide two-way communication between those inside a building that are in need of assistance with evacuation and the emergency services. An EVC typically consists of a central location point which connects to a number of other points, known as outstations, that are situated throughout the building. They […]
Wireless & Linear Heat Detection Integration
Linear Heat Detection (LHD) provides an early warning of fire or overheating. It uses heat sensing cables to detect changes in temperature – when part of the cable reaches its rated or predefined alarm level temperature, it sends a signal to the control panel. Linear Heat Sensing Cable can detect excess heat at any point […]
Wireless & Addressable Fire Alarm System Integration
Addressable fire alarm systems are made up of a series of detectors and devices, each of which is assigned an address that allows the exact location of a fire event to be quickly identified. There are many advantages to using an addressable fire alarm system: You can quickly determine the location of a fire Specific […]
Product Spotlight – VESDA-E VES Aspirating Smoke Detector
Aspirating smoke detection (ASD) provides a very fast and reliable warning of smoke. Based around a central detection unit, aspirating smoke detectors use powerful fans to draw smoke from the protected area through a network of aspirating pipes and into a detection chamber. Due to their ability to actively draw air from the protected areas, […]
Aspirating Smoke Detection for Portable Electrical Substations and Switchrooms
A substation is part of an electrical generation, transmission and distribution system. They use electrical transformers to convert voltage from high to low, or vice versa, and perform a number of other important functions. Electrical power may flow through several substations at different voltage levels on its way from a generating station to the consumer. […]
