FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

A fire alarm system is a network of devices designed to detect and alert people to the presence of fire, smoke, carbon monoxide, or other fire-related emergencies.

These systems are crucial for ensuring safety in buildings, both in occupied and unmanned spaces

Here are the main components of a fire alarm system:

Detectors: These include smoke detectors, heat detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors. They sense the presence of fire or smoke.
Manual Call Points: Also known as pull stations, these allow individuals to manually trigger the alarm.
Alarm Devices: These include sirens, bells, and strobe lights that alert occupants of the building.
Control Panel: This is the central hub that monitors the detectors and triggers the alarm device

Addressable Fire Alarm System

An addressable fire alarm system precisely identifies the location of fire detection devices. Each device has a unique address, allowing for quick and accurate responses. These systems are scalable, reduce false alarms, and integrate with other building management systems, making them ideal for large and complex buildings.

Conventional Fire Alarm System

A Conventional Fire Alarm System uses zones to detect fires. Key parts include smoke detectors, a control panel, and alarms. It’s simple, cost-effective, but only shows the zone of the fire, not the exact spot.
