Fire Detection Systems
The main purposes of a fire detection system are to save lives and to minimize damage to buildings and other properties in case of a fire. A fire detection system detects actual fire, risks of fire, and other fire-related events.
Depending on what the system detects, it activates the right type of alarm devices and sends alarms to, for example, the fire brigade and different users. The system also notifies users about other types of alarms and alerts.
A fire detection system consists of components and objects such as fire detection panels, fire controls, loops, loop devices, and zones.
