Wireless fire alarm systems are designed to operate without wired connections between the devices and the control panel. Instead, the devices communicate with the control panel wirelessly, typically using radio frequencies. This wireless communication allows for more flexibility in terms of installation, as there is no need to run cables throughout the building. The Safety Centre offers a range of wireless fire alarm systems and equipment that are quick to install and require no cables between the panel and devices. This means that the decoration within the building does not need to be affected during the installation process, resulting in minimal disruption to the working day. Electro Detectors (EDA) and Hyfire are two manufacturers that provide reliable radio fire alarm system equipment.
The advantages of wireless fire alarm systems include:
- Prevents the eyesore of multiple cables
- Can be used as temporary fire systems on building sites and more
- Cost-effective, saving money on both the system and labor
- Reliability, as each radio fire alarm system is tested to British and European standards
- Quick and easy installation
- Minimal disruption to your business
- Operates off a battery, ensuring functionality during power outages
- No need for wall outlets
Wireless fire alarms work by transmitting a radio signal from the call points or detectors to the control panel instead of using wires. Each detector has its own unique address, allowing for easy identification of the fire’s location. When a fire is detected, the sounders will trigger, alerting staff and customers to evacuate.
Please note that wireless fire alarm systems have been protecting buildings for over two decades and have become as reliable as wired fire alarms due to advancements in radio technology.
