Fire detection solutions for your application

In challenging situations such as:

rooms with high airflows,
cold stores with freezing temperatures, or
large open spaces where smoke forms a mushroom cloud below the ceiling,

traditional point smoke detectors don't work. A different smoke detection solution is required.


	Smoke detection for ceilings with beams Ceilings that have beams criss-crossing them need special consideration when designing a fire system. The smoke can become trapped in the 'pockets'.

	Designing cold storage facilities with active fire protection With the value of the stock often many times that of the building, early detection of a fire is essential to prevent stock damage and sprinkler activation.

	Cutting the cost of complying with fire regulations By using performance-based design principles when considering a fire protection system you can cut the initial cost of the fire protection system and the cost of ownership.

	Smoke detection in air conditioning ducts Detecting smoke inside a duct means that you can control the spread of smoke in a building.

	Detectors for difficult environments Dust, humidity and corrosive atmospheres are the enemy of smoke detectors. There’s one smoke detection system that excels in these environments.

	Detecting smoke in rooms with high air flow Air sampling system detection can be placed where the air takes the smoke and actively samples the room air to detect smoke at the earliest stage of a fire.

	Smoke detectors for inaccessible spaces High ceilings, sealed chambers and other inaccessible places make it difficult to install and maintain smoke detectors. A VESDA air sampling detector can installed somewhere accessible as the air is brought to it.

	Protection of essential equipment Cabinets containing dense electronic equipment are a high fire risk. Placing smoke detection close to possible ignition points allows the earliest possible warning of a fire threat.

	Protecting large open spaces from fire Smoke stratifies in large open spaces such as an atrium or stadium. It may never reach a smoke detector installed on the ceiling. Air sampling smoke detection can be installed where the smoke will go, providing very early warning of a fire.

	Smoke detection in rail cars Railway rolling stock present a difficult smoke detection challenge. VESDA systems have been integrated into rail cars around the world.

	Undetectable smoke detectors Need a smoke detection system that doesn’t mar a building’s decorative features?

	Fire detection solutions for difficult environments Ceilings that have beams criss-crossing them need special consideration when designing a fire system. The smoke can become trapped in the 'pockets'.

	Fire detection solutions for the protection of essential equipment The implications of downtime or equipment failure in a data center are massive. The USA Federal Communications Commission (FCC) estimates that the downtime in a large datacom facility is upwards of $2 million per hour.
