In summary, hard-wired systems offer greater reliability and stability, but they come with higher installation costs and limited flexibility for changes after installation. On the other hand, wireless systems are easier to install, more flexible, and better suited for retrofitting, but they might be slightly less reliable and require ongoing battery maintenance. The choice between the two depends on the specific needs and constraints of the building or facility.

After reviewing the footage shared by Suez of the Altens East Mixed Recycling Facility fire, I felt compelled to share my thoughts as a fire safety engineer, working closely within
One of the main problems facing fire detection systems in the UK is exposed/external environments is the unpredictable British weather. Almost every detection system (Smoke, Heat and even some Flame
Video Smoke Detection is perfect for a fast response to fires in high roofed buildings and harsh operating conditions.
Watch Smokecatcher detect smoke in an MSW storage building. The smoke is coming through from a fire in the adjoining storage area.
Watch Smokecatcher detect a fire in an SRF Storage bunker. Sadly, the alarm wasn’t responded to and the site lost a 4hr window of opportunity between smoke detection and flames appearing.
Video Smoke Detection overcomes the risks of stratification and other challenges for early fire detection in logistics and storage facilities.
Watch Fire Rover detect and suppress a fire in the waste bunker at an EFW facility!
See how the Fire Rover detects and suppresses this fire at a clients tipping hall. Note how the smok is spreading out at low leve, rather than rising. This is called ‘stratification’ and is one of the many reasons why roof-mounted smoke detection systems like beam detectors and HSSD is not suitable for many recycling applications.
Watch the Fire Rover detect and suppress a fire at a battery storage facility. This targeted and intellegent control makes the Fire Rover particularly well suited to high hazard storage applications.
Watch the Fire Rover tackle a battery fire in a tipping hall. Note how the exploding battery cells start three separate fires, which the operator individually suppresses (whilst avoiding the site operators in the vicinity).
