Advantages

Fire detection and extinguishing control panels process results detected by sensors, control alarm devices and set off alarms to permanently manned stations and the fire department. They continuously monitor extinguishing systems for functionality and trigger them electrically if necessary. In addition, they communicate with risk management systems or via web interface with Internet-enabled devices. Different model versions, from a compact small panel to sophisticated large control panels make it possible to select the appropriate fire detection and extinguishing control panel.

Applications

Each version of the FMZ 5000 can be used as a strict fire detection control panel or, combined, as fire detection and extinguishing control panel for water and gas-based extinguishing systems; as a spark detection and spark extinguishing control panel and for all other applications involving instantaneous fire protection, such as machine protection or painting systems. Thanks to an optional redundant hardware, all modular versions can be used to control and monitor multi-zone extinguishing systems and are equally suited to monitoring sprinkler systems.
