Going wireless
During the construction of Parkway Newbury, a new retail and residential development in this Berkshire town, a networked wireless fire alarm system designed around Kentec Electronics’ fire control panels was supplied and installed by wireless fire alarms specialist Fire Systems to protect timber-framed apartments above the retail shop outlets and communal areas.
The independent wireless fire alarm system was installed in each of the complex’s eight external blocks, interfaced on a wireless network to enable the fire signals from each block to be transmitted back to the security office. The system, based around a single loop Kentec Syncro AS analogue addressable fire alarm control panel, used Argus open communications protocol with Argus wireless detectors.
