False Alarm Reduction in Automatic Fire Detection Systems

This presentation looks at key fire detection principles which are, selecting the correct detection, the different types available and the relative sensitivity for each detector. In addition it also details the best practice for reducing false alarms and detecting real fires.

Deals with the total cost of ownership of a fire alarm system and how this is often overlooked during specification and design.

This course covers how detectors work, where they might be used and maintained. It covers the operation and use of detectors and devices on non-addressable and addressable systems

The course describes what a hazardous area is, the methods of protection for devices used in a hazardous area, atex classifications. Non-addressable and addressable I.S Devices and circuit design

This course explains to users of Apollo equipment how the system works and the device features and benefits. It explains how to perform radio surveys and frequency and channel selection for multiple interfaces.

This presentation starts by looking at the significance of obtaining independent certification and the process behind it. It continues by explaining the importance of the EU construction products directive (CPD) within the fire industry and how it promotes free movement of approved products and eliminates barriers to trade.

A basic introduction to the most commonly used parts of BS5839. This course will provide the attendee with a basic overview of the standards, legislations, coverage and gradings fire FA & FD systems. In addition, some recommendations on documentation and final checks.

BS 7273-4,2015 – Code of practice for the operation of fire protection measures. Part 4, Actuation of release mechanisms for doors. This CPD will cover requirement of BS7273-4, scope of Part 4, Actuation of release mechanisms for doors and implementation of the design, installation, commissioning and Servicing.

This seminar provides information on the new EN standard for the use and function of visual alarm devices within automatic fire alarm systems.

This seminar provides an insight into the life cycle issues of choosing, acquiring, installing, operating, reliability, maintenance and disposing of fire detection and alarm systems. Developing a life cycle cost approach from the outset will provide a solid and informed base on which to make the most effective economic and operationally sustainable decisions rather than one based on the initial cost alone.
