Eyewear brands get Advanced protection

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

An intelligent fire system from Advanced is protecting the headquarters of Luxottica, a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of fashion, luxury, sports and performance eyewear.

Luxottica Group distributes and produces eyewear for almost every major eyewear brand including Armani, Burberry and Bulgari. Advanced’s MxPro 5 fire panels have been chosen to protect the company’s HQ in Milan. The contract for supplying the panels was awarded to the team at Firetech, who specified Advanced’s MxPro panels.

Stefano Gatti, MD of Firetech, said: “We needed a system that not only covered office space, but also technical areas and parking facilities. Among the stand-out features of the Advanced’s system is the ease of installation, configuration and commissioning.”

MxPro panels can be used in single loop, single panel format or easily configured into high speed, 200 panel networks covering huge areas and tens of thousands of field devices. Three MxPro 5, four-loop panels have been installed in the Luxottica complex in a 19” floor standing rack and are connected in a fault-tolerant network which includes repeater panels.
