Link a Fire Alarm to Your Two Way Radio
R-LinX integrates with your fire alarm system for real-time notifications to key personnel via a two way radio
- Faster Response Times for Fire Safety Officers, Maintenance Supervisors and Estates Managers
Business premises often have ventilation, central heating, air conditioning and ductwork that provides a way for flames and smoke to spread more quickly than a domestic building, so how efficient is the response to fire alarms in your organisation?
Food for thought: in the year ending September 2017, there were 346 fire-related fatalities in England, and 3,297 non-fatal casualties, according to Home Office statistics.
If you are responsible for responding to a fire alarm in your organisation, here is a scene you may be familiar with: the fire alarm is activated; you make your way to a fire panel to find out where the alarm has been triggered and from there to the location the alarm has been activated on site. You might actually pass the location of the alarm on your way to the alarm panel, without knowing it.
Precious minutes may have passed. If this was a real emergency situation, the delay could cost lives and cause appalling damage to your facility.
Fortunately, there is a way to improve your response time.
