    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,

    Can anyone send me any manuals you have for the non addressable Rafiki fire alarm systems and any other information you have on max loadings and cable lengths etc.. Can you use 4 core cable to add additional devices? Do they do a remote LED? Can you use the output module on the zone? Is the repeater fully functional i.e can you silence reset etc Does it meet EN54 standards? How much warrenty do you get? What DB level do the sounders in the call points kick out? What is the hatari sounder used for? Sorry for all the questions but we are possibly going to change from the equipment we usually use and want to no what the panels are capable of.

    Hi there I am looking to put a wireless sensor; PIR or better still a dual-tec in my Motorhome, which will communicate with a transceiver wired into my Cytech Comfort system. It looks like the Opal RFX - 3 might do what I want at the receive end BUT is this unit only designed for the external PIR's (like the Elite) Opal make. Also, the RFX-3 is slight over-kill budget wise - it looks like it's three channel, I only need the one. So is there another, good quality product, that might fit my needs? There is max of 10 metres between the sensors position in the Mhome and the potential site for the transceiver and I have both N/C and N/O contacts in the panel (plus tamper w…

  23. 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
