Honeywell Gent one of the pioneering brands in fire and life safety, has launched the first fire alarm system with EN-approved self-testing smoke and heat detectors that can be tested automatically, changing the way life safety systems are commissioned, tested, and maintained.
The Gent Vigilon panel with Self-Test provides scalable, reliable protection, efficient monitoring, and flexible reporting enhancing the fire engineers’ efficiency.
efficient and reliable systems
“Honeywell is integrating intelligence across all aspects of life safety systems,” said Lionel Caillat, Vice President and General Manager, of Commercial Fire EMEA, Honeywell.
He adds, “By digitizing the most essential system in the building, we’re creating more efficient and reliable systems. Through connected services, we’re helping building owners gain visibility of all of their critical fire and life safety system assets. This will help move the industry toward the creation of safer and more compliant buildings.”
A connected fire and life safety ecosystem
CLSS provides real-time visibility of the fire system to competent technicians and facility managers
The Gent Vigilon panel with the Self-Test range of detectors is securely enabled through the Honeywell Connected Life Safety Services (CLSS) cloud-based platform.
CLSS provides real-time visibility of the fire system to competent technicians and facility managers and allows maintenance engineers to diagnose and troubleshoot problems ahead of time, improving first-time fix rates and reducing time spent on-site.
A solution that self-tests and detects
The Self-Test range of detectors eliminates many of the physical barriers during testing and maintenance, such as locked rooms, voids, high ceilings, and other hard-to-access spaces, areas that may go untested, which can ultimately put buildings at risk.
With the ability to test both optical and heat sensors and verify that the smoke entry points are free of obstruction, a single maintenance engineer can initiate a building-wide test, improving compliance with an end-to-end electronic audit trail and saving the much-needed time required to carry out the essential visual inspection through the CLSS app.
The Gent Vigilon panel with the Self-Test range of detectors is available in the United Kingdom through Honeywell Gent System Integrators.
