Siemens exhibits reliable fire safety products at the Dubai trade fair

Siemens Building Technologies is launching its fire detector product line Cerberus Pro in the Middle East at Intersec in Dubai.

The Siemens Building Technologies Division has added two new fire detectors to its fire safety product line Cerberus Pro. Both devices use proven ASAtechnology to detect fires quickly and safely even in environments with challenging requirements. In addition, one of these two models is able to monitor carbon monoxide concentrations in the room air. This opens up entirely new
applications for Cerberus Pro.

Both detectors have two optical and two thermal sensors, allowing them to be employed as (multi-sensor) fire detectors and as heat detectors. In addition, model OOHC740 is equipped with an integrated carbon monoxide sensor to provide early warning of dangerously high concentrations of this toxic gas. The most important feature of both detectors is the unique ASAtechnology (Advanced Signal Analysis) which has proven itself in thousands of installations; it allows for fast and reliable fire detection in a wide range of environmental conditions.

ASAtechnology-based detectors split the signals they receive into their components, which are then compared in real time against predefined values using complex algorithms. These parameter sets can be precisely adjusted to the expected environmental conditions, taking into account specific local risks and possible interferences such as dust or welding fumes.

Another benefit of ASAtechnology is the ability to load multiple parameter sets into the detectors and easily switch between them. This allows customers to quickly and easily adjust the devices' responsiveness to changing requirements. For example, the sensitivity of a detector installed in a rough industrial environment can be increased on the weekend when the production lines are down.
