Packaging

Here in this area we have installed multi detectors and ADW.

Multi detectors – They are a combination of smoke and heat detectors. They get activated when they
sense smoke or when they sense a rise in temperature beyond a preset temperature level.

ADW – It’s a heat detector which works on the principle of Rat of Rise. When the air at normal pressure
inside the tubes expands and exerts pressure on the pressure sensor then it gives a trigger to the
controller which interprets the same change in pressure into the rate of change of temperature. This
rate of change when goes beyond the normal rate of rise then the system gives an alarm. This kind of
system is very effective in all kinds of temperature levels because it works by detecting the rate of rise of
temperature rather than triggering on exceeding a particular temperature level.
Production Hall

Here we have the multi detectors and the dLISt controller

Multi detectors – same as explained in packaging setup.

dLIST – This is a system which is actually a heat sensing system. In this there is a sensor cable laid along
the roof, which contains heat sensors at a distance of 5m each. This also works on the same principle of
Rate of Rise of temperature as the ADW, though it does not have any tubes or air pressure. This system
is better than ADW in terms of just one thing that this system gives the location of the sensor at which
the abnormal change in temperature or fire is detected. This information is available on the dLIST
controller which is the basic control and display unit of this system. This system can be connected with
our main Fire Alarm Panel to display the alarm condition on same.

MCP – We also have MCPs that are connected in the loop. The MCPs are Manual Call Points which have
a switch which operates when the front glass of the MCP is broken. These devices are used in cases
where the fire is visible to a person and he/she wants to raise an alarm for same manually.
Fire Alarm Panel

Securiton fire alarm panel model No. SCP 3000 is being installed on this site. This system is capable of
handling 14 loops with upto 250 (depending on current consumption of all devices connected) devices
per loop. So here one single panel is capable of handling all the fire devices (viz. smoke detectors, heat
detectors, ADW and dLIST) installed at the site.

Fire exit signage

An exit sign is a device in a public facility (such as a building, aircraft or boat) denoting the location
of the closest emergency exit in case of fire or other emergency. Most relevant codes (fire , building ,
health or safety) require exit signs to be permanently lit
Hooter

Hooters / Sounders are very important part of the Fire Detection & Alarm system. It will alert the people
and help to take necessary steps to stop the Fire.
