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. […]

Wireless & 2-Wire Addressable Fire Alarm System Integration
Two-wire fire alarm systems work by allowing detectors, call points and alarm devices for each zone to all be wired into the same set of two-core wire. This means it only needs a single circuit per zone and does not require a separate sounder circuit. This type of fire alarm system is often the preferred […]
Aspirating Smoke Detection for Aerospace Manufacturing Plants
The term aerospace refers to the research, design, manufacturing, and operation of anything that is intended to fly in the atmosphere of earth (aeronautics) and surrounding space (astronautics). The aerospace industry is responsible for manufacturing aircraft such as private jets, passenger planes and spacecraft as well as propulsion units, engines and missiles. As such, the […]
