Addressable Systems

Analogue Addressable Fire Alarm Systems differ from conventional systems in a number of ways and add more flexibility, intelligence, speed of identification and scope of control.

For this reason Analogue Addressable Fire Alarm Systems are the natural choice for larger premises and more complex system requirements.

In Analogue Addressable Systems all the devices are wired on ring circuits called "loops". The devices electronically carry on a dialogue with the controls. The devices continuously communicate back and forth giving their "analogue value" and stating whether they are healthy, in fault or in alarm etc.

The controls can be "Programmed" to operate certain outputs according to which input device has been operated. These systems are particularly useful in larger premises such as Hospitals, Shopping Malls and factory/office complexes.
