Fire safety today requires a comprehensive understanding of needs and innovative solutions. We are providing innovative, high-quality fire safety products, systems, and solutions.
Incorporated in a concept tailored to your requirements, they provide unique protection:
- Early and reliable fire detection
- Clear and fast alarming and evacuation processes
- Intelligent extinguishing tailored to the room requirements
All these aspects are at the core of comprehensive fire safety. Only if they are fulfilled can you be assured that people in your building are safe and assets and business processes protected.
Complete, innovative fire detection systems for every demand. All of Siemens fire detection systems are scalable
- from small to very large and
- from simple to complex
- making them easy to expand.
Fire detection systems from Siemens provide unbeatable accuracy and ease of use for building personnel, installers, and firefighters. At the first sign of danger, our reliable fire detection systems trigger a coordinated alarm, people are led out of the danger area via voice messages, and extinguishing systems are activated.
Fire detection
The task of an automatic fire detection system is to detect fire as early as possible, to alarm and activate the preprogrammed control functions. State-of-the-art fire detection systems are capable of detecting fire extremely early and thus of minimizing the damage that may be caused by fire. By an optimal product selection and appropriate knowledge it is possible to set up systems that virtually rule out false alarms.
Alshoala is providing following Siemens fire detection systems
- Sinteso – Latest state of the art EN certified fire detection
- CerberusPro – Latest state of the art EN and UL certified fire detection
- AlgoRex – For existing project and migration purposes
Fire extinguishing
A perfect fire protection solution requires technology and expertise. SinorixTM intelligent extinguishing solutions, offer you the latest technologies based on long-term know-how and experience in fire detection and extinguishing from a global partner. The solutions are tailored to your individual needs to maximize business continuity. Fires are detected early and extinguished quickly and reliably. Sinorix high-quality solutions protect people, environment, processes, and assets.
Automatic extinguishing systems shall either extinguish or prevent incipient fires in order to protect objects, rooms and entire buildings from fires and their consequences. Alshoala is providing a full range of Siemens Sinorix program:
- FC10 control units
- Sinorix natural agents
- Sinorix chemical agents
Gas detection
Depending on their composition, combustible gases and vapors may be lighter or heavier than air. Accordingly, the highest concentration may be reached either directly below the ceiling or at the lowest point of the room.
As the amount of energy required to ignite an explosive gas is extremely low, a gas warning system ensures that no explosive gas-air mixture may occur even in extremely endangered spots and that the lower explosion limit (LEL) cannot be reached. To ensure that the gas detector itself does not become an ignition source, it must be provided with the required ignition protection features for explosion-hazard areas.
Selecting and planning a gas warning system requires exact knowledge of all important ambient conditions and must absolutely incorporate maintenance and servicing aspects. This is the only way to ensure that maintenance costs can be kept at a reasonable level and that the system is easy to handle.
Danger management
Buildings require a multitude of administrative measures of which danger management as part of technical building management constitutes an extremely significant part thereof. The danger management system (DMS) is responsible for managing time-critical, hazardous situations. Data must be concentrated to give consideration to human receptiveness.
This data concentration is achieved by the hierarchical structure and classification at the field level, automation level and management level, each of them having its proper network. In addition, the DMS merges the various specialized subsystems, from gas warning and fire detection to intrusion detection and access control, in order to make a complete and consistent representation of the current hazard situation possible on one user interface.
To live up to all expectations, a DMS requires a flexible and scalable system struc-ture. Only this way is it possible to easily integrate the requirements of different industries, company sizes and growth steps into the system.
Event handling is the core functionality of a DMS, with the top priority being on the fast and complete recognition of the hazardous situation, which is followed by the guided handling of the problem. To achieve this goal, the subsystems are inte-grated into the system and operated by the DMS. To be able to retrace what has happened, the DMS includes different extensive reporting choices.
Siemens MM8000 system is in a top of today’s market.
Evacuation
To save lives, hazard warning is indispensable. Conventional devices such as sirens and bells may be economic, but people hardly follow such signals, ignoring them more and more often. Thanks to its plausibility, voice alarm is followed quickly and consistently, which is why it will spread in the future. The information of people in the building without delay by means of voice messages can be adapted to the current hazard situation and largely helps to prevent panic reactions.
To plan a voice alarm system, special knowledge of acoustics is absolutely necessary. This is the only way to achieve the necessary intelligibility with a cost-efficient system design. Voice alarm systems should be easy to integrate into the building infrastructure. In particular, automatic interfaces to the danger management systems are useful. The required control unit technology can be installed centrally or de-centrally. The efficiency of the amplifiers is crucial for the size of the required emergency power supply unit.
Alarm devices not only save lives. In the case of voice alarm, they also have a valuable additional benefit, as they can be used to emit background music and voice messages. Digital technology makes possible simpler cabling, more flexible system programming and essentially more efficient amplification. Although cabling is the largest single post in the investment calculation, it lives as long as the build-ing itself. Voice alarm is thus a worthwhile strategic investment.
