Vimpex’s innovative new ClamBell fire alarm bell has been chosen by a global supplier of Modular and Skid-mounted solutions to be fitted to the outside of the company’s modular to sound a loud, audible warning in case of fire.

Central Engineering manufactures a range of Electrical, Mechanical, Process, and Communications Modules, each uniquely designed to securely house equipment and plant for the data center, oil & gas, utility, mining, and marine markets. Modules are installed indoors, outdoors, onshore, or offshore often in remote locations, with deployments in Ireland, the UK, Europe, Russia, the Middle East, Africa, and South America.

Weather-Proof External Fire Bell

Jack MacNelis of local installers JMN Fire Alarms Ltd. Says, “As these modules are often sited in hostile, remote, mountainous areas, Central’s requirement was for an extremely reliable and weather-proof external fire bell for its modular that, in case of a fire, would be loud enough to warn anyone in the vicinity. ClamBell's ‘two minutes to fit' and rugged durability has proved to be the perfect solution.”

Vimpex’s ClamBell is an innovative, UK manufactured, fire alarm bell with a unique hinged design that swings shut after installation, which means it’s quick to install, aesthetically pleasing, and reassuringly reliable - setting it apart from other fire alarm bells on the market.

Installed in under 2 minutes

ClamBell® meets the needs of the international market and has every installation method covered

The ClamBell’s permanently fitted gong and unique hinged design do away with the long, complicated installation process of other bells. With no central bolt, the ClamBell® can be fitted in a matter of minutes. All installers need to do is fit the ClamBell to the wall, wire it to the circuit and then click it shut. It is that easy. 

With three different base types, shallow, deep, and waterproof, as well as multiple voltage variations, the ClamBell® meets the needs of the international market and has every installation method covered.

Fire Alarm System

ClamBell is designed and manufactured in Britain by Vimpex, Europe’s independent manufacturer and distributor of fire alarm system components.

Due to careful design and manufacturing, a single model has simultaneously been approved to EN54 Part 3 by LPCB and is pending UL 464 for the U.S. market. The ClamBell has also been independently IP tested to IP56 by Intertek, meaning true weatherproof performance.
