A Fire Detection System ensures the detection of a phenomenon linked to the development of a fire. The signal locates it and sends this information in order to activate the appropriate commands while avoiding issuing unjustified alarms. The automatic fire detection system includes at least the automatic fire detectors and the control and signaling equipment (ECS).
Our fire solutions include :
- Fire detection system
- Fire safety system
- Fire safety system
The purpose of the alarms provided is to warn all the occupants of the premises or buildings concerned and to provoke evacuation. It can be delivered manually by a supervisor or automatically.
The automatic detector is composed of a sensor monitoring a chemical phenomenon resulting from a fire, and which provides a corresponding signal to the ECS.
- Heat detector
- Standard/optical smoke detector
- Flame detector
- Thermo velocimetric detector
- Gas detector

WHICH FIRE SAFETY SYSTEM FOR MY COMPANY ?
The health and protection of employees, staff and the public are paramount. This is why the implementation of a fire safety system must be truly thought out. For this reason, the labor code requires establishments and companies to install a fire safety system according to a very precise standard. It is a question of making the fire detection and fire fighting equipment interact with provisions including :
– Smoke detectors: mostly used as prevention tools, smoke detectors signal any anomaly (start of fire, flames, smoke cloud, heat source) to the central unit. If a problem is detected, the evacuation alarm will be triggered. As far as their installation is concerned, it is recommended to have them in the corridors of the ERP and if possible in each room.
– Smoke extraction: this is a system in its own right since it allows smoke and hot gases to be evacuated quickly. Smoke extraction is an interesting system because it can facilitate the evacuation of people and contributes greatly to the safety of the building.
– Carbon monoxide detectors: the protection of the public also involves the prevention of carbon monoxide levels in the premises. This odorless, colorless molecule can be fatal to humans in case of high concentration. For that, detectors can be set up. They detect excessive levels of carbon monoxide and signal them to avoid intoxication of visitors.
– Compartmentalization: when a fire occurs, the compartmentalization (also called partitioning) plays a crucial role because it delays and limits the spread of flames. Several equipments can be installed such as fire doors or curtains and smoke dampers or shutters.
– Evacuation of persons: when the fire alarm sounds, employees and all persons in the workplace must have access to the emergency exits. The employer must then ensure that they are always accessible, lit and known by the employees. Normally, the emergency exits are supposed to be automatically unlocked in case of fire risk.
