Created by Schrack Seconet using IP technology, the Visocall IP call system simplifies work procedures and daily tasks for everyone involved in the care process, saving time and unnecessary walking distances.

The use of photovoltaic (PV) systems to generate electricity has increased significantly in recent years. However, this has also been followed by increasing fire risks in PV systems. This blog post is dedicated to a closer examination of the various technical causes of fires in PV systems, as well as a solution that minimizes these risks and enables integration into existing fire detection systems.

Fires in high and low-voltage switchgear, transformer substations, and substations are not only a potential threat to smooth operation but also pose significant risks to human health and the environment. In addition to the immediate consequences of a power outage, fires in transformers and insulation materials can release highly toxic gases and environmentally damaging waste products.

Picture this: It's a bright summer day, and the sun's rays are beaming down, powering a state-of-the-art photovoltaic (PV) system installed on the rooftop of a bustling commercial building. The promise of renewable energy and sustainability seems limitless, but in the midst of this solar success story lies a hidden risk – the threat of fire.

Summer is finally just around the corner, and there is hardly anything better than flying off on vacation and simply letting your soul unwind. At Schrack Seconet it is most important to us to ensure the safety of every traveller during their holiday.

The new supercomputer LUMI in Finland is protected by Schrack Seconet's equally cutting-edge system Integral Remote.

Radiometric dual cameras are a special option for the earliest detection of fires. They use two sensors to generate both a thermal and an optical image. First, the systems make the heat radiation of an object visible by means of infrared light. A second lens also creates an optical video image, which makes verification much easier.

Acoustic voice alarms (VA) are useful whenever increased security technology requirements apply. Their primary purpose is to transmit information in a perfectly comprehensible manner in an emergency because spoken instructions are extremely important in these cases: This helps avoid panic or wrong reactions, helps people flee in a calmer and more orderly manner and increases the speed of evacuations.

Preparation for maintenance services of fire alarm systems has become easier and more convenient with the use of remote access and mobile apps. These tools allow for streamlined communication, monitoring and scheduling, making the actual maintenance process faster, more efficient and cost-effective. In the coming weeks, we will show you here on our blog how you can make your fire alarm system fit for the future with digital applications.

Reacting to an alarm, intervening in case of malfunctions, blocking for maintenance work. Until now, if an event occurred at the fire alarm system, you always had to go to the fire alarm control panel to find out the type and location of the alarm and then take the appropriate action. With digital applications, you can receive this information via PC or mobile device. For efficient operation, shorter distances and faster reactions.

Central Asia has long been a crossroads between the cultures of the Mediterranean to the west and Iran, India and China to the east. Even in ancient times, the Silk Road was not just an important trade route, but it also spread ideas, cultures and religions in both directions. Even today, Central Asia forms an important bridge between Europe and Asia. The five countries of the region, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, share the same name ending “stan”, which comes from Persian and means “country”.

Schrack Seconet's Area Sales Manager Larissa Kirsch has known Central Asia since childhood. In the interview, she talks about the particularities of the business culture there.

Digitalisation offers exciting new opportunities for the management and protection of buildings.
