CONVENTIONAL FIRE ALARM SYSTEMS

Conventional fire alarm systems protect buildings’ safety by dividing them into different zones and monitoring them individually. It works with detecting devices and alarm devices and warning alarms to alert nearby residents or rescuers. In a conventional system, the information density is limited to the number of such circuits used. A floor plan of the building is often placed near the main entrance with the defined zones drawn up, and LEDs indicating whether a particular circuit/zone has been activated.

The main advantage of a conventional fire alarm system is that it is not expensive, easy to install, and requires no programming.

ADDRESSABLE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

An addressable fire alarm system is a sophisticated type of fire alarm system designed to provide detailed information about the location and status of each detection device in a building. Unlike conventional fire alarm systems, where devices are grouped into zones, addressable systems assign a unique address to each detector or module. This allows the system to identify exactly where a fire or fault is occurring, significantly improving response time and situational awareness for fire safety personnel

Fire alarm systems

Two-Way Communication
the panel can query the status of each device, receiving real-time information on its operational condition.
Unique Addressing

Each device has a unique address, allowing the control panel to pinpoint the exact location of an alarm or fault.

Improved Diagnostics

The system can provide detailed information on device malfunctions or maintenance needs.

Reduced False Alarms

Because the system can identify the specific device

Flexible Design

can be easily expanded by adding new devices without the need for major rewiring, as each new device can be given a unique address

Integration with Other Systems

These systems can often be integrated with other building management systems, such as HVAC controls or emergency lighting

Enhanced Reporting

The control panel can generate reports on system status, device activity, and historical events,
