Fire protection with thermography solutions for companies and the environment
Fire Prevention - FIRE-SCAN
- Surveillance of open areas and warehouses with fire detection and prevention systems
- Thermal imaging cameras timely detect and locate critical temperature conditions
- Contactless, high-resolution temperature measurement at great distances for early fire detection and prevention
- Automatic documentation and alerting
- Monitoring objects and fire even in case of smoke and dusty air
Thermographic System FIRE-SCAN for Early Fire Detection
Early fire detection system FIRE-SCAN enables capturing of critical temperature indoor and on open-air grounds at an early stage and is optimised for early fire detection. An automatic calibration with threshold values results in prompt alerting up to automated fire fighting. However, should a fire break out, FIRE-SCAN provides an additional option for monitoring the area surrounded by fire even in case of smoke or formation of dust. Thus, fire fighting can be supported very effectively by the fire detection system.

High Thermal and Spatial Resolutions of Integrated Infrared Camera Assure Success
The application of high-performance infrared cameras for early fire detection systems allows a detection of smallest pocket of embers due to their high spatial resolution, meaning a sufficient number of pixels. In case of an insufficient number of pixels for the to-be-monitored area, it is possible to integrate further infrared cameras into the system FIRE-SCAN without any problems. The fire detection system’s sphere of action can be additionally expanded at a constant spatial resolution by mounting the infrared camera onto a remote-controlled Pan-tilt head. Besides the infrared camera’s spatial resolution, which meets highest requirements, the infrared camera system also features an optimised thermal resolution. Only this combination makes it possible to detect smallest temperature changes or hidden pockets of embers at an early stage. As may be necessary, this information will be displayed in control room or directly integrated into the available control system.
Early Fire Detection in Hazardous Areas: Systems with ATEX Certification
The fire detection system FIRE-SCAN is applied, for example, in the chemical industry. The development of explosive gas-air mixtures represents a central hazard there. Therefore, system components that have a certification in accordance with the ATEX Directive are used for such applications. These are primarily protective housings for thermal imaging and visual cameras, pan/tilt systems and electrical distribution systems. They are suitable for deployment in potentially explosive areas 1 and 2.
