Emergency Lighting
In an emergency your corridors and exits need to be well-lit to ensure the safe exit of your personnel.
Discount Fire Supplies stocks a comprehensive range of emergency lights, including LED emergency lighting, emergency exit signs, emergency spotlights and recessed emergency lighting.
Maintained emergency lighting, such as the 8W Maintained Bulkhead Emergency Light, can be set to stay on constantly whereas non-maintained emergency lighting, like the 8W Non-Maintained Bulkhead Emergency Light, will only come on in the event of power failure.
For the brightest emergency lighting, try our halogen spotlights. The Twin Emergency Spotlight, for use indoors, is available with either 20W or 50W halogen bulbs, with an illumination period of 3 hours and 1 hour respectively. Suitable for outdoor use is the weatherproof Tri Emergency Spotlight with independently adjustable spotlights.
Our LED emergency lighting, such as the LED Maintained Emergency Light Bulkhead (also available in non-maintained), is discreet and unobtrusive. LED lighting is also economical, the LED Retrofit Emergency Light Replacement fits virtually any 8W emergency bulkhead and has an average lifetime of 50,000 hours, compared to only 9,000 for a conventional 8W tube!
Fire Alarms
Discount Fire Supplies can supply everything you need for a comprehensive and life-saving fire alarm system.
A commercial fire alarm system might include a fire alarm panel, smoke detectors, heat detectors, fire alarm sounders, emergency lighting and fire alarm system call points. Each detector, sounder and fire alarm call point is connected to the main fire alarm panel. You can set fire alarm zones using the fire alarm panel; so in the event of fire you can quickly see which zone is at risk and act accordingly.
Smoke detectors work by measuring the amount of smoke in the detector chamber and can be the first indication that a fire has started.
Heat detectors constantly measure the temperature at their location. Should the temperature rise above a certain point the alarm will be triggered.
Fire alarm sounders give an audible indication of danger, these should be evenly distributed throughout your building and loud enough to be heard over any background noise.
Fire alarm call points are instantly recognisable by their red colour and should be installed throughout your building no more than 30m apart. They should be triggered, usually by breaking or removing a protective cover, as soon as a fire is noticed.
Fire Suppression Systems
Successful fire suppression systems protect your building, equipment and personnel.
Dynameco standalone fire extinguishing generators, such as the Dynameco 200 Aerosol Fire Extinguishing Generator, Dynameco 300 Aerosol Fire Extinguishing Generator and the Dynameco 2000 Aerosol Fire Extinguishing Generator, are ideal for locations like boat engine rooms. These stand alone fire suppression systems come in a variety of thermal activation temperatures, ranging from 57°C to 93°C, and do not require a control panel or electricity supply.
Automatic fire suppression systems include detection devices as well as fire extinguishers. Detection devices include UV/IR flame detectors, heat and smoke detectors. If one is triggered the control panel, like our Zeta Aerosol Extinguisher Control Unit, will enable all of the fire extinguishing generators. Dynameco Aerosol Fire Extinguishing Generators for automatic fire extinguishing systems can be used in locations such as warehouses and on public transport.
Manual fire suppression systems are useful in locations like commercial kitchens. They can support up to 3 fire extinguishers as standard and are activated using a mushroom button or manual call point.
Gas Detection
Many dangerous gases, such as carbon monoxide, are odourless and cannot be easily detected so it is wise to invest in a gas detection system.
We stock a variety of standalone gas detection monitors and alarms. The Stand Alone Combustible Natural Gas Detector will emit an alarm when it detects gas and is also available as an LPG gas detector. The portable Zeta Domestic LED Carbon Monoxide Alarm is excellent for use in the home and on holiday.
For large scale gas detection in areas such as warehouses and factories the AirCOn8 Addressable Carbon Monoxide Monitoring & Ventilation Control System is ideal. Up to 110 carbon monoxide monitors, split into 8 zones, can be linked to the system - the highest level in each zone will be displayed on the control panel. If the concentration of gas exceeds a certain level, the operation of ventilation equipment will be initiated.
