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.

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.
