[Ticket Question] Fire detection system

Mon, 19 Aug 2024 10:21:48 +0000

Hi, I am working on refurbishing a building to become a small commercial gym in Crieff, Perthshire. I want to install a fire detection system, I’d need two break glass manual panels and then a number of automatic detectors with sounders. The ability to have an alert sent to my phone as well would be advantageous. Is this something you can help me to specify and also is it something my electrician can wire in?

Aritech Smoke Detector Enquiry

I have been looking on your website for some standalone smoke/heat detectors for use in a boiler house. Could you confirm that the relay output is volt free and can be used to connected to remote PLC digital input card (24VDC).

Do you do a range that is more suitable for an industrial installation like a boiler house? It has to be standalone and dual heat and smoke and have the facility to repeat the alarm remotely via a relay output?

[Ticket Question] Heat/Smoke Detector

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 11:28:22 +0000

Hello,

I'm hoping you can assist with a product enquiry.

I'm looking for a device to detect the start of a lithium battery fire. I'm keen for advice on if heat and/or smoke is best for this use case.

The power available is 24v DC and I'm hoping the sensor will have either a repay or some sort of output I can connect into a monitoring PLC.

many thanks,

Intruder Alarm Advice And External Security Lights

Sat, 07 Nov 2015 17:16:37 +0000

Hi All,

I have just moved into my 1940's semi and now on a journey to turn this beautiful house into the automation house I've dreamt of. I have read a lot on this forum and other websites, and my head is about to explode with information that is not relevant to me hence this post.

I am after your advice on two projects - an intruder alarm and external security lights.

1. Intruder Alarm

The requirements are:

- Sensors (i.e. Heat/PIR) downstairs (Lounge, Hallway, Landing and Extension)

- Contacts for windows (Lounge x2, Extension x2)

- Camera (Lounge x1)

- A Panel (position in the Hallway)

- A Main Unit (positioned Upstairs)

- A Sounder (positioned external front of house)

- Keyfobs

- Growth to add other devices (Sensors, Contacts etc) and internal lights, curtains etc

- Integration with Mobile device (OSX) to check status (not access Cameras!)

- Wireless integration as current house wiring requires updating

I have looked at various alarm kits/systems (Visonic, Pyronix, Siemens, etc) and even those offering home automation (e.g. Loxone) and I'm not sure what system would be ideal. I like Visonic for its aesthetics, but it has to meet my requirements.

2. External Security Lights

The requirements are for front of the house which has a block paving drive for two cars:

- Three low voltage lights position to provide light in a triangular formation

- The above lights come on with a PIR (i.e. when someone/car comes into the drive)

- Two low voltage lights position at the front door and two low voltage lights for the side of the house

- The above four lights are on dusk-to-dawn

Currently have a lantern with a PIR installed but it provides poor lighting even up the drive, say, if I'm taking the kids out of the car and bags of shopping. We have changed the bulb but that doesn't reach out to end of the drive/shadows (hence the triangular formation of the lights)

I would greatly appreciate your assistance, guidance, and product selection.

[Ticket Question] Menvier Heat Detector

Tue, 06 Oct 2015 13:53:06 +0000

I have purchased a Menvier M12 4 in 1 Smoke detector and now need to try and change the head of it to just a heat and not smoke sensor, as it is located in the kitchen. Please can you let me know if you sell in the same style and size a heat only sensor and if it is possible to simply change the head from the one detailed above to a heat sensor one? If Menvier do not make a heat sensor in this style, do you have one from another supplier which would screw onto my existing Menvier smoke detector body which is already wired in? Thank you

[Ticket Question] Smd427 Pg2 Smoke & Heat Detector

Wed, 24 Jun 2015 11:12:02 +0000

Hi,

I have installed a Visonic PowerMaster 10 with 2 x external & 1 x internal siren, and also a GSM module for notification/alerts (all purchased from yourselves).

I would like to connect a SMD427 PG2 Smoke & Heat detector. Please could you confirm that it is possible to configure this system so that when Smoke or Heat is detected, the device itself emits sound but NOT the external sirens? And that a call/text also be generated via the GSM module?

(to clarify, it is not desired that the external sirens will sound upon detection of smoke or heat but internal sounds are fine, also desired that remote alerts are generated - hope that makes sense)

Thanks
