• Description : The purchase of an alarm system must be carried out taking into account various factors. To improve the efficiency of the equipment, the devices must work in the interactive mode and in this sense the wireless equipment provides no less reliability than the cable one.

Overview

• Installation of fire alarm systems requires laying cables around the perimeter of the monitored facility. Very often it is difficult to do. In this case, you have to look for an alternative option, which can be wireless fire alarm equipment. Its installation is much simpler than the standard system’s one, but there are some special features that should be considered when buying.
  
  The most common are automatic systems that have small differences in complexity, equipment, number of devices, but the structure and principle of their work are the same. Each facility consists of detectors and a control panel. The sensors differ in the manner of detecting a fire and it is they that transmit data about the appearance of characteristic signs of fire. The control panel is a device for receiving information from detectors.
  
  Advantages of wireless equipment.
  
  Since the fire alarm system is a complex consisting of devices that exchange information, they are connected together by loops. The result of using such a system can be a web of cables, so on complex objects, wireless fire alarm systems are increasingly being used.
  
  They have the following advantages: they reduce the number of wires and save money for laying cables. Such an alarm system can be installed in the finished rooms without the need to perform repairs after the installation work.
  
  However, these systems have their own peculiarities of operation. Wireless fire alarms have low noise immunity, so false alarms can occur when installed on objects where powerful electrical appliances operate. To prevent such situations, the elements of the system should be located in rooms with direct visibility. The presence of partitions reduces the range, and massive walls completely screen the signal. The radio channel cannot provide power to the system's devices, so they either connect to the power grid, which increases the fire hazard, or they are equipped with an autonomous battery that increases the cost of the equipment.
  
  Wireless fire alarm systems are more promising, and nowadays they are being increasingly used. This is explained by the possibility of installing the equipment on such facilities where it is impossible to lay the cables.
  
  The factors influencing the choice.
  
  • The purchase of an alarm system must be carried out taking into account various factors. To improve the efficiency of the equipment, the devices must work in the interactive mode and in this sense the wireless equipment provides no less reliability than the cable one.
  
  • Differences in cost. They are small, and in some cases, the use of such a system is even more profitable and cheaper.
  
  • It is not required to clean the detectors every 6 months.
  
  • The absence of cable routes simplifies the maintenance process.
  
  Naturally, the acquisition of such complex devices should only be carried out by trusted suppliers of fire suppression equipment. At the same time, the brand of the manufacturer is not so important as the availability of certificates and warranty coupons for free maintenance in case of failure.
