Building on the hugely successful LogiFire system, Comelit-PAC has introduced a new addition to its robust alarm systems range, embracing a wireless fire detection series. Comelit-PAC’s new range of wireless devices is ideal for installations in which a wired solution may not be practical. With ease of installation at the forefront of its design, transceivers are available to expand a system.
Available with addressable or conventional transceivers capable of cloud and remote monitoring, the new wireless devices eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming cabling, dramatically reducing installation time and overall project costs.
New build or retrofit system
Mandy Bowden, Comelit-PAC Fire Manager, says: “The demand for wireless fire detection systems is growing significantly. Their increasing popularity can be attributed to the ease of installation, reliability and flexibility in configuration, ideal for a seamless new build or retrofit system for both residential and commercial applications."
She adds, “Comelit-PAC’s devices have been designed with LogiFire esthetics in mind and to be placed in a building, connecting to the main system. We believe we are one of the few to offer as standard an addressable wireless solution that can benefit remote monitoring via cloud integration, especially useful to reduce reliance on waking watch facilities and associated costs.”
Comelit-PAC’s addressable transceivers
Addressable transceiver sits directly on the loop with a built-in isolator for added protection
The addressable transceiver sits directly on the loop with a built-in isolator for added protection. This enhances a wired system allowing indication of tamper faults, battery faults, device faults, contamination levels and alarm reporting by the panel and remotely via the cloud.
Comelit-PAC’s addressable transceivers support up to 32 devices with a maximum of five units per panel.
Conventional transceiver Added to the range
Added to the range available is a conventional transceiver, which may be installed as a standalone unit with a conventional panel or alongside conventional wired devices. This allows one transceiver per zone, with up to a maximum of five zones.
With a range of up to 1500 m and a battery life expectancy of 10 years on detectors and manual call points, and eight years on sounder beacons. A site survey is always recommended to support the survey equipment.
Rise in fire safety legislation
Mandy Bowden continues: “As wireless fire detection systems become more common, we have a duty of care and responsibility as an industry to provide systems that can accommodate the evolving needs and priorities of all building types, based on a thorough site survey."
She concludes, “In addition, with the rise in fire safety legislation, it’s critical to present smart and compliant methods for early detection and prevention. All coming together with no compromise to style or futureproof technical capability, as you would come to expect from the Comelit-PAC’s LogiFire portfolio.”
Comelit-PAC’s wireless alarm devices are certified to EN54-25, EN54-17, and EN54-18.
