Smoke Detection Systems for Government Buildings from Xtralis

Governments have a special responsibility to protect their leaders, staff and visitors to the facilities where critical operations are centered – from service and specialized agencies to military installations to town centers and from icons of democracy like parliaments, state houses and justice centers to schools. Disruption of critical services and the destruction of local and national monuments due to fire must be avoided. Large expanses of unmanned borders must be secured. Access control, perimeter protection and intrusion detection are key to letting authorized personnel in and keeping thieves, terrorists and those with questionable motives out.

Why Xtralis Life Safety Solutions?

• Very early warning detection alerts life safety personnel before an incipient fire becomes a major, devastating blaze

• High sensitivity allows alarm thresholds to be set for the earliest possible warning of a fire even in areas of high airflow or large open spaces where smoke may be diluted

• Multiple configurable alarms to trigger government building staff attendance and help prevent unnecessary panic amongst visitors – from very early warning for investigation and security management to subsequent warnings for evacuation and suppression

• Wide sensitivity range allows alarm thresholds to be programmed to avoid the consequences of nuisance alarms

• Unobtrusive and tamper-proof sampling of the environment

• Flexible positioning of detectors in secure locations that are easily accessible for testing and maintenance

• Advanced detector diagnostics and support for remote monitoring and configuration of systems in unmanned or secured areas

• Unique detection chamber design protects the detector optics from contamination, reducing nuisance alarms and maintaining detector sensitivity for a long operational life

• Enhanced suppression system performance through timely notification and intelligent activation to prevent premature or unnecessary actuation

• Simple expansion for the detection of multiple gases and environmental monitoring without major construction or retrofitting
