How to Install VESDA into High EMI/RFI Applications
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), also known as radio-frequency interference (RFI), is a disturbance created by an external force that affects an electrical circuit by electromagnetic induction, electrostatic coupling or conduction. This disturbance may degrade the performance of an electrical circuit or stop it from performing altogether.
Hybrid Fire Detection for Bin Stores
A bin store can range from a simple wooden structure to a brick outbuilding and is used to store waste and recycling before it is collected and taken away. Bin stores usually contain a number of storage vessels and, in many cases, cleaning tools and equipment. Bin stores typically accompany industrial or commercial premises and can be attached to or detached from the main building.
VESDA for Industrial Applications
Many industrial applications have many fire detection challenges including dust, dirt, water, corrosive chemicals, extreme low temperatures, high electromagnetic interference or vibration, or hazardous locations.
Hybrid Fire Detection for Warehouse Extensions
A warehouse is a commercial building used by manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers and many more to store their products. Warehouses are usually very large buildings with large open areas. These buildings often contain lots of machinery and equipment used to transport and move the contents in an out of the building.
EN54 Linear Heat Approvals
There has recently been some interest in new standards – prEN54 parts 22 and 28 – that will apply specifically to linear heat detection cables. Currently, both these standards are provisional (pr) and cannot be used as a benchmark for performance or quality, or quoted in the specification for the design of a fire alarm system. However, at some point in the future, they will be made mandatory standards that all linear heat detection must adhere to.
