What can be measured, monitored, and managed for Fire Safety.

Smoke is the killer. Evacuating people speedily in a fire situation is critical in order to save lives.

Paramount is ensuring that the fire detection, audio exestuation and fire suppression, smoke extraction as well lighting systems are fully operational 24/7.

Fire Detection

Standby Generators, UPS, Fuel Tank Level, UPS, Mains Power, Fireman’s Switch

Fire Evacuation

Audio PA, Emergency Lighting, Lift Homing, Signs, Wind Direction Evac Zones

Supression

Sprinklers, Pumps, Water Main Pressure, Water Tank Level, Gas Shut Off

Smoke

Extraction & Vents, Stairwell Pressurization, HVAC, Air Conditioning

Compartmentalization

Fire Doors, Fire Shutters, HVAC Ducts

Power

Standby Generators, UPS, Fuel Tank Level, UPS, Main Power, Fireman’s Switch

Fire Escape Door

Guardian Manager software platform can support all of the above and display the status of each on the Dashboard.

Do you Guess or

1. Know how much fuel is left in the tank?
2. Know in advance when to refill the tank?
3. Know if you are receiving all the fuel, you paid for?
4. Know when the tank is being tampered with?

We have the solution:

Fuel level sensors integrated with Guardian Manager online application server.
Simply replace the tank’s cap with a with the Tekelek a smart wireless ultrasonic sensor cap. Battery life 5+ years. 4,5 million in service globally.
