Fire alarms
A fire alarm system is often part of a total security system providing intruder protection in addition to fire protection. Fire alarm systems are required under the building code for a majority of new commercial building construction in most countries including Malta.
Control panel
The control panel is the controlling component of a fire alarm system. It receives information from the fire alarm sensors, monitors their operational integrity and provides for automatic control of equipment, such as setting off any sirens and, contacting the client and fire brigade.
The control panel is powered by the mains supply and has a battery to be used as a back up when the power is out. Our batteries can supply our fire alarm systems for up to an average of 30 hrs. However, this is highly dependent on a number of factors including the quality and life expectancy of the battery being used.
Detectors & sirens
Fire alarm sensors are designed to detect changes in the environment such as the detection of smoke, an rise in temperature or the detection of gas. Our fire alarm systems are often made up of either smoke or heat sensors, or a combination of the two. Another unit to be included in a typical fire alarm security system is the break glass unit.
We have sirens that are designed for both indoors and outdoors. The number and placement of sensors, sirens and break glass units in every one of our fire alarm security systems is determined by hour specialists by conducting a security sight survey. During this process they must also take into account Malta's and the EU standards of fire prevention and security.
Fire cable
Fire alarm security systems must be installed using fire specialised cable. At Pincott Security we supply both fire resistant and fire retardant cable. The latter can withstand higher temperatures.
