Alarming System
Alarming System
Fortune Liquid Air Engineering Pvt. Ltd. offer two auto alarms to monitor current status of central Medical Gases Supply & Vacuum system and its trigger dual alarm (Audio/Visual) in case of any deviation from the predetermined set parameter. These alarms can be conveniently located to any Area / zone / ward areas / ICU / CCU / operating rooms in consultation with the health care personnel to signal the user with an auditory and visual alert of medical gas pipeline system. Its based on digital microprocessor based alarm system and sensing is done through highly Analog Gas Alarm Systems come in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 gas categories where the number indicates the number of gases the system can handle. The system contains analog meters for displaying pressure of the different gases coming from the pipe lines. The system generates appropriate alarm in case of High pressure or Low Pressure in any gas. These alarms come with RS-485 Modbus interface for BMS connectivity. One NO/NC terminal is built-in for alarm extension and provision is made for adding external NO/NC interface for each gas individually.
Components of an Alarming System:
Sensors: These devices are responsible for detecting specific conditions or events. Common sensors include:
- Motion detectors: Detect movement within an area.
- Door/window contact sensors: Trigger when doors or windows are opened.
- Smoke detectors: Detect the presence of smoke or fire.
- Carbon monoxide detectors: Alert to dangerous levels of CO gas.
- Temperature sensors: Monitor temperature changes.
- Water leak sensors: Detect the presence of water or leaks.
- Security cameras: Capture visual data for surveillance and monitoring.
Control Panel: The central hub of the system that processes data from sensors and initiates responses. It allows users to arm/disarm the system and communicates with external monitoring services if applicable.
Alarms and Alert Devices: These devices notify individuals or alert authorities when an alarm is triggered. Common alert devices include:
- Sirens and strobes: Emit loud sounds and flashing lights to draw attention.
- Notifications via mobile apps: Send alerts to smartphones or other mobile devices.
- Telephone dialers: Call preset phone numbers or emergency services.
- Email and text message notifications: Send alerts to designated email or phone numbers.
Keypads and User Interfaces: Devices that allow users to control and interact with the system. Users can arm/disarm the system and receive status updates.
Monitoring Services: For professional alarm systems, a monitoring service is responsible for 24/7 surveillance of the system. If an alarm is triggered, the service will contact the appropriate authorities or notify keyholders.
Features and Functions:
Security: Alarming systems are commonly used for home security and business security, including intrusion detection and surveillance.
Fire and Smoke Detection: Many systems include smoke detectors and fire alarms to safeguard against fires.
Environmental Monitoring: Some systems include sensors for monitoring temperature, humidity, and water leaks, which can protect against environmental hazards.
Medical Alerts: Medical alarm systems are designed to allow individuals to call for help in case of medical emergencies, typically through a wearable device or a wall-mounted button.
Home Automation Integration: Some systems can be integrated with home automation features, allowing users to control lights, thermostats, and other devices remotely.
Remote Access: Many modern alarming systems offer remote access via mobile apps or web interfaces, allowing users to control and monitor their systems from anywhere.
Customization: Users can customize the system’s settings, including specifying which events trigger alarms, setting notification preferences, and adjusting sensitivity levels for sensors.
Silent Alarms: Some systems can trigger silent alarms, notifying authorities without making audible sounds, which is useful in panic situations.
Self-Monitoring: With the rise of DIY alarm systems, self-monitoring options allow users to receive alerts directly without the need for a professional monitoring service.
