Cloud And Remote Monitoring Solutions

Thanks to the Detnov Cloud application and the integrated Web Server capability, Detnov fire detection systems installed at different customer locations can be monitored from a single platform. With mobile application (APP) support, businesses can monitor system status in real time, manage alarms and view critical notifications instantly without travelling to site.

  • Detnov Cloud application for monitoring multiple locations via mobile app
  • Real-time remote access, alarm management and system status notification
  • Simultaneous monitoring of both addressable and conventional panels on the same platform
  • Consolidated fire safety management for different facilities from a single control centre

The TCP/IP based cloud network established between panels enables an unlimited number of fire panels to be monitored and controlled from a single centre (or from as many centres as required). This structure delivers high scalability and operational efficiency for campus-type sites, multi-site chain operations and corporate users.

Electronic Addressable And Interactive System Architecture

Detnov fire detection systems use an electronic addressable and interactive structure, placing them in the most advanced class of addressable fire detection system technology. The ability to monitor each field device individually allows point-level identification of fault, alarm and disabled conditions and provides fast intervention capability during operation.

  • Up to 250 devices per loop, delivering significant cable savings compared to legacy systems
  • Use of loop powered addressable sounders; up to 50 sounders per loop
  • Optional buzzer for local audible warning at detector level
  • Polarity-free wiring to prevent the impact of installation errors and speed up commissioning
  • Isolated product series with bi-directional built-in isolators in all devices for short-circuit protection
  • Addressing is performed automatically via the panel; Plug & Play technology makes commissioning extremely easy
  • All products are manufactured in Spain with advanced technology and are EN54 certified

SCADA Integration And Monitoring Software

With the MODBUS communication card, Detnov fire detection systems can be easily integrated into SCADA software. This integration allows facility management teams to monitor fire detection, security and automation systems on a single, unified screen.

Through the Detnov monitoring software, networks can be monitored both locally and remotely. The extensive product portfolio covers all monitoring, control and supervised modules required by fire systems and provides a complementary layer to the addressable fire alarm panel architecture. As a result, a data-driven, manageable fire safety infrastructure that works in 100% integration with all low-current systems in the building can be established.

Peer-To-Peer Network And Easy Installation

The peer-to-peer network architecture enables up to 32 panels to communicate directly (with line lengths up to 40 km). Cabling can be designed according to project needs as either Class B circuits or Class A ring loops, providing both redundancy and high system availability.

Thanks to its easy installation and operation features, Detnov fire detection systems can be commissioned without requiring extremely high technical expertise, which reduces operating costs and simplifies system management. The use of built-in short-circuit isolators in all field devices allows the rest of the system to continue operating even in the event of cabling faults.

CAD-150 And CAD-250 Series Control Panels

The CAD-150 and CAD-250 series Detnov control panels feature a flexible architecture that can be expanded from 1 loop (250 addresses) to 32 loops (8000 addresses). With multiple capacity options for different applications, they provide addressable fire alarm panel solutions that are suitable for everything from small and simple systems to large and complex projects.

Fire control panels process all system messages and trigger alarms. Each model offers a user-friendly interface and text entry support for easy operation. This structure allows safe and correct actions to be executed quickly during an event. With a 10-inch touchscreen, the panels provide intuitive system control and help responsible personnel perform the correct interventions during emergencies.

In addition, remote display and control units can be used for remote monitoring and management of fire control panels. This allows system status to be viewed and necessary actions to be taken from multiple points, not only from the main control room.

With their scalable structure, touchscreen interface and reliable communication infrastructure, the CAD-150 and CAD-250 series panels are ideal fire control panel solutions for projects of all sizes.

Network Topology And EN54 Certified Network Solutions

All fire control panels can be used as stand-alone units or networked with each other to form a distributed addressable fire detection system. With RS485 or Ethernet technology, an EN54 certified network architecture can be established on every panel.

By creating a peer-to-peer network between panels, complex and advanced scenario functions can be implemented easily. For example, alarm information from a fire occurring in one building can be transmitted to other buildings within a campus, enabling coordinated evacuation and public address scenarios to be executed securely through this infrastructure.
