Beam-type detectors July 1st 2009 As a part of its fire safety system, the
deluxe Caja Mágica tennis complex in
Madrid, Spain, is using around 50
assorted Fireray 50R and Fireray 100R
beam-type smoke detectors from Fire
Fighting Enterprises to help protect
the large indoor spaces created by the
three main fully coverable stadiums.
With its largest stadium holding up
to 12,500 spectators, and all three
benefiting from retractable rain
covers, effective fire safety throughout
the large indoor area poses potential
challenges. Reflective beam detectors,
such as the Fireray models that have
been installed, are designed
specifically for situations such as this,
with each unit's beam able to sense
smoke over a wide corridor of space.
One Fireray 100R can detect smoke
over an area as great as 1500m2,
which would usually need about 15
point detectors to safely protect it,
requiring a fraction of the cabling. More articles from Fire Fighting Enterprises Ltd: |
