Addressable panels are usually much more advanced than their conventional counterparts, with a higher degree of programming flexibility and single point detection.

TSIGNALING LINE CIRCUIT LOOPS

Panels usually have a number of signaling line circuit loops – usually referred to as loops or SLC loops – ranging between one and thirty. Depending on the protocol used, a loop can monitor and control several hundred devices. Some protocols permit any mix of detectors and input/output modules, while other protocols have 50% of channel capacity restricted to detectors/sensors and 1/2 restricted to input/output modules. Each SLC polls the devices connected, which can number from a few devices to several hundred, depending on the manufacturer. Large systems may have multiple SLCs, and SLCs are further divided into sub-groups through the use of fault-isolation modules.

Each device on a SLC has its own address, and so the panel knows the state of each individual device connected to it. Common addressable input (initiating) devices include:

• Smoke detectors
• Manual call points or manual pull stations
• Notification appliances (Simplex systems with TrueAlert signals only)
• Responders
• Fire sprinkler system inputs
• Switches
• Flow control
• Pressure
• Isolate Standard switches
• Addressable output devices are known as relays and include

• (Warning System/Bell) Relays
• Door Holder Relays
• Auxiliary (Control Function) Relays
• Relays are used to control a variety of functions such as Switching fans on or off
• Activating fire suppression systems
• Activating notification appliances
• Shutting down industrial equipment
• Recalling elevators to a safe exit floor
• Activating another fire alarm panel or communicator.

VESDA is a very advanced and reliable very early fire detection system which detects a potential fire very early giving you that extra time before the fire becomes big and difficult to control and thus saves you a lot of damage, downtime and cost of suppression release.

It’s a fire detection system that offers the earliest possible warning of a potential fire. A system that will ensure business continuity and freedom from nuisance alarms. A system that can adapt to the unique characteristics of any given environment. One that delivers high performance through its high quality design and its dedicated global sales and distribution channels. With hundreds of thousands installed globally, the VESDA name has become synonymous with high performance very early warning smoke detection. It is the product chosen when reliable performance is crucial.

VESDA Air Sampling Smoke Detection Systems are recognized as the global market leader and provide very early warning smoke detection solution all around the world. VESDA detectors have been proven for decades in industries such as telecommunications, power generation, warehousing, clean rooms, and manufacturing/storage services.

VESDA is an ideal solution when:

• Business continuity is very important
• Smoke is very difficult to detect
• Area to be protected is difficult to access.
• Unobtrusive detection is needed .
• Fast evacuation is difficult.
• Environment conditions are difficult.
• Suppression system requires different levels of warning at different stages of fire.

A portable fire extinguisher can save lives and property by putting out a small fire or containing it until the fire department arrives; but portable extinguishers have limitations. Because fire grows and spreads so rapidly, the number one priority for residents is to get out safely.

Safety tips

• Use a portable fire extinguisher when the fire is confined to a small area, such as a wastebasket, and is not growing; everyone has exited the building; the fire department has been called or is being called; and the room is not filled with smoke.
• To operate a fire extinguisher, remember the word PASS:
 – Pull the pin. Hold the extinguisher with the nozzle
 pointing away from you, and release the locking
 mechanism.
 – Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire.
 – Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly.
 – Sweep the nozzle from side-to-side.
• For the home, select a multi-purpose extinguisher (can be used on all types of home fires) that is large enough to put out a small fire, but not so heavy as to be difficult to handle.
• Choose a fire extinguisher that carries the label of an independent testing laboratory.
• Read the instructions that come with the fire extinguisher and become familiar with its parts and operation before a fire breaks out. Local fire departments or fire equipment distributors often offer hands-on fire extinguisher trainings.
