FireALERT
Systems' Product Line
DETECTION
This group of products, comprising the FireALERT-DC
and FireALERT-DCS, detect the signature of a wildfire event
and communicate the resulting alarm to the appropriate central receiving
and dispatch fire center via on-board satellite or terrestrial spread
spectrum wireless radios. The FireALERT-DCS will also control
the activation of a compatible owner installed suppression system to protect a structure.
COMMUNICATION
For
FireALERT Systems that use on-board terrestrial spread
spectrum wireless radios, the supporting wireless communication
network consists of one or more RepeaterALERTs and a ReceiverALERT.
The RepeaterALERT relays the alarm from the FireALERT units to the ReceiverALERT.
On receiving
this alarm information from the last RepeaterALERT in the
communication chain, the ReceiverAlert interfaces with the
NetALERT for rotating and display of the alarm information.
ACTIVATION
When
the FireALERT
is required to activate a compatible suppression system
or a SonicALERT, it sends control signals to ActAlert.
This magnetically latched solenoid actuator interfaces with
compatible control valves to provide the above required activation
function.
ANNUNCIATION
When an audible warning is required to alert a community or homeowner
of an approaching wildfire event, the SonicALERT is a compressed
air or nitrogen energized high output siren that is activated by
the FireALERT system using the ActALERT. It is activated by a pneumatic
control valve.
NOTIFICATION
When the FireALERT detects a fire condition, it transmits an
alarm via satellite or terrestrial radio to NetALERT.
NetALERT processes all incoming alarm data from all
FireALERT's and puts all emergency response information to the
appropriate personnel.
