Types of Fire Systems
Noor Systems aims to provide a variety of options to meet the needs of a wide range of clients. Therefore, fire alarm devices vary according to the location to be protected from fire and the expected fire source in that location. Below are some types of fire alarm devices:
Automatic Alarm Systems
Automatic alarm systems are the first type of fire systems. These systems emit a sound or light upon the onset of a fire and are among the most commonly used types for fire detection, as they operate automatically without the need for human activation.
Automatic alarm systems are available in several forms, and the types of fire systems that operate automatically include the following.
- Heat detector: This device helps detect sudden high temperatures in enclosed spaces, such as kitchens.
- Optical smoke detector: This technology uses light or laser beams to detect smoke, especially dark-colored smoke. These devices are typically placed in hallways and rooms.
- Ionization detector: Fire alarm companies in Egypt prefer this type, as it helps detect carbon fires whose smoke contains carbon particles that can cause power outages in the facility.
- Optical ionization detector: Fire alarm companies in Egypt prefer this type, as it is considered one of the best automatic alarm systems due to its high ability to detect different types of fires.
- Fire alarm companies in Egypt prefer to link this type of alarm system with automatic fire suppression systems to facilitate extinguishing the fire as quickly as possible.
Manual Alarm Systems
The second type of fire systems is the manual system. Fire alarm companies in Egypt use manual systems in entrances and stairwells, where activating them requires breaking the glass barrier to reach the alarm button.
Fire Alarm Device Specifications
The first step in purchasing alarm devices is selecting the best fire alarm companies in Egypt, which offer devices with the following specifications:
- Fire detectors operate on a continuous voltage ranging from 8 to 26 volts DC.
- They can operate efficiently at high temperatures, which can sometimes reach up to 80°C.
