Addressable Multi Sensors

Addressable Multi Sensors are advanced fire detection devices that utilise both optical smoke sensing and thermal detection to identify a wider range of fire types. By analysing multiple data points, these sensors deliver more reliable detection compared to single-technology devices.

Each sensor is assigned a unique digital address, allowing the fire alarm control panel to pinpoint the exact device location in the event of an alarm or fault. This makes them ideal for buildings where rapid identification and response are critical.

The integrated intelligent algorithms evaluate smoke levels, temperature changes, and environmental factors to significantly minimise false alarms. This makes multi sensors suitable for areas with varying conditions such as schools, offices, industrial sites, hotels, and residential buildings.

Designed for easy installation, system compatibility, and remote diagnostics, these sensors support efficient maintenance and long-term performance. Their robust construction and adaptability make them a dependable choice for modern fire protection systems managed by Inbuild UK.

A fire control panel (also known as a fire alarm control panel or FACP) is the central hub of a building’s fire detection and alarm system.  A fire control panel is essential for early fire detection, effective evacuation, and minimising property damage. Here’s what it does:

• Monitoring: The panel continuously monitors connected devices, such as smoke detectors, heat detectors, and manual call points, for signs of fire.
• Alerting: When a fire is detected, the panel activates alarms (e.g., sounders and strobes) to alert occupants and initiate evacuation.
• Controlling: It can activate other fire safety systems, such as smoke control systems, fire dampers, or sprinklers, to manage the fire and protect escape routes.
• Communication: The panel can send signals to emergency services or monitoring centres, ensuring a rapid response.
• Diagnostics: It provides information about the system’s status, including faults or maintenance requirements, ensuring the system remains operational.

A standard detector uses a single detection method, while a multi sensor uses two technologies, enabling faster and more reliable detection with fewer false alarms.

Yes. Their intelligent sensing algorithms and dual-technology monitoring help significantly reduce false alarms, especially in environments with fluctuating temperatures or dust.

They are ideal for commercial, industrial, and residential environments, including corridors, classrooms, hotel rooms, offices, and warehouse areas

They must be connected to a compatible addressable fire alarm control panel. Always check system requirements to ensure proper integration.

Maintenance is simplified because the device communicates its status, contamination levels, and faults directly to the control panel, making servicing more efficient.
