S-Quad Extra Sensory Detection

Caledonian Fire provides design, installation and maintenance of fire alarm systems within Scotland. Formed in 1999, and based in Central Scotland, we provide our full range of services to the retail market place.

Gent's new S-Quad sensor range for Vigilon is the UK's most innovative solution to the detection and signalling of fires. Patented dual angle optical scatter smoke detection improves both the speed and integrity of fire detection.

This advanced sensing technology is coupled with an integral sounder with speech capability and strobe in the same intelligent device, making S-Quad a truly unique fire detection and alarm sensor. A combined multi-sensor, speech, sounder and strobe in one intelligent discreet device providing a safe and cost effective solution for most applications.

Sensor - A new concept in fire detection - a truly intelligent analogue sensor incorporating exceptional computing power in the sensor as well as the panel to achieve an extremely fast response to a real fire whilst minimising the risk of false alarms.

Sounder - Increased output with Vigilon still having the largest number of sounders on a loop.

Speech - Another 'first' - a voice chip capable of delivering synchronised messages throughout the building via the sensor.

Strobe - Warns those with hearing difficulties of potential fire hazard, now a legal requirement in all public buildings through DDA legislation.

10 Reasons to specify S-Quad

1 Advanced Sensing Technology - coupled with integral sounder, speech capability and strobe in one intelligent device provides the UK's most innovative solution to the detection and signaling of fires.
2 Rapid Fire Detection - 4 separate sensing elements including CO can be set with individual sensitivity levels and sensor 'states' can be programmed for different time periods to suit all applications and environments.
3 Minimal False Alarms - The combined power of S-Quad and Vigilon panel provides quick, intelligible decision making. The S-Quad dual angle optical sensor recognises a clear distinction between smoke and steam.
4 Saves Lives - S-Quad incorporates intelligent heat and gas sensing technology to allow the early detection of fires.
5 Safe Evacuation - Voice messaging capability through the sounder functionality ensures quick and safe evacuation in the event of a fire.
6 Cost Savings - S-Quad provides four functionalities within one device supported on a 2-loop Vigilon system, with built-in isolators in every device.
7 Compliance with DDA (Disability Discrimination Act 1995) Legislation - Built-in high intensity flashing strobe warns those with hearing difficulties of a potential fire hazard - now a legal requirement in all public buildings.
8 The Power of Vigilon - Supports the largest number of Fire Detection and Alarm products on the same 2 cables with soft or SAFE (Soft Addressed Firmware Enabled) addressing options.
9 Monitored Line Input/Output Option - Output can be used for a remote LED. Input can have a separate identity to the sensor although they share the same electronic address.
10 Peace of Mind - All Gent fire products are designed to be compatible with the same successful Vigilon platform and supported by a network of approved System Integrators or Novar Gent's direct 'one-stop' customer service solution including design, manufacture, installation and commissioning.
