AD Network Video – part of the Warrington-based AD Group and sister company of Dedicated Micros- has won the Integrated Security Product of the Year category at the prestigious IFSEC Security Industry Awards.
The award was for its FireVu integrated VSD Solution which provides early detection and visual verification of smoke and fire for commercial buildings.
Pauline Norstrom, group director and director of worldwide marketing, said:
“We are extremely pleased the FireVu Solution has received recognition at the IFSEC Awards.
“Commercial premises need early detection and visual verification to ensure rapid and proportionate response to fire alarms thus ensuring minimum disruption to business continuity and FireVu can provide this.”
The award judges commented: “The judges thought that this refined product had been introduced in a timely manner to address an increasing problem regarding the need to verify the presence of a genuine fire alarm.”
Ninety five per cent of fire alarms automatically generated from systems owned by UK businesses, turn out to be false.
As a result, commercial premises, at night or weekends, run the risk that their fire authority will not respond unless they have confirmed visual verification that there is a fire.
This can lead to an increased chance of smoke and fire damage due to the potential delay incurred while someone verifies the alarm and resulting greater interruption to business continuity.
FireVu Domes solve the problem by combining integrated video smoke and flame detection video analytics in a day/night IP camera together with on-board recording.
This provides alerts to the presence of smoke and flame anywhere within the field of view, giving visual verification.
