Sudden burst of fire can cause property damages and if not detected and controlled initially it can destroy the whole property and can also be harmful for humans living in the premises of the property whether it is industrial or residential. In order to ensure the security of the resident as well as property it is essential to set up Fire detection and fire alarm systems in buildings whether it is a industrial or residential building. Luckily, Due to the technological advancement in recent decades we have now a range of fire detection and alarm systems catering to the require of clients. There are 3 types of fire detection and alarm systems, these are

• Clever Addressable System (CAS) • Conventional System • Hybrid System

Clever Addressable System (CAS)

This is the most advanced fire detection and alarm system. Clever addressable system ensures speedy detection of fire identifies the precise place of the fire and also require easier maintenance. The detectors, sounders, call points and the interface modules are connected on the exact same pair of wires.

Benefits of Clever Addressable System

• The primary benefit of Clever Addressable system is that all the detectors have an individual address on the control panel, so in case of detection alarm, the precise location of the fire can be detected from the control panel utilizing the person number of the detector. • Clever Addressable system utilizes only single pair wire for wiring up to 200 devices, so wiring of the Clever Addressable system can be cost efficient and easy to maintain. • Short circuit isolators in the wiring make sure continuous operation even in case of short circuit in the loop wiring. • Sensitivity of different detectors can be optimized in loop wiring. • Sprinkler switches, fire dampers, current fire alarm systems can be contacted from monitor modules.

Conventional System

As the name indicates this is most common and extensively used Fire system. In this system, fire alarm control panel receives signals from detectors and call points and in turn, signals the condition to alarm sounders and remote signaling equipments. Conventional system consists of smoke, beam or heat detectors in designated zones.

Advantages of Conventional system

• If you do not have to cover large premises then Conventional Fire detection is the very best to choose. • This comes less expensive than addressable fire detection and alarm system. • This one can be advantageous for residential apartments and for small businesses. • Conventional fire detection and alarm system comprise of control panel, smoke detectors, heat detectors, Beam detectors, break glass units and hooters.

Hybrid system

Hybrid fire detection and alarm system combines the capabilities of addressable and conventional system each. This structure comprise main control panel with addressable and traditional devices.

Advantages of Hybrid system

• Hybrid system assists to steadily upgrade the fire alarm from conventional to addressable. • The control panel of the system has cards which can take each traditional and addressable devices. • The procedure of upgrading from hybrid to addressable is price effective.
