One or more fire detectors and/or manual call-points logically belonging
together for geographical, functional or other reasons.
An AutroSafe system consisting of a Primary System and a Secondary
System. The purpose of the concept is to ensure that the Secondary System
takes over the control of the detection loops if the Primary System is lost for
Intermediate equipment which routes a fault warning signal from (B) to a fault
warning signal receiving station.
Equipment used to give warning of fire, for example, sounder or visual
indicator.
Fire Alarm
Recieving Station
A centre from which the necessary fire protection measures can be initiated at
any time.
Fire Alarm Routing
Equipment
Intermediate equipment which routes an alarm signal from control and
indicating equipment to a Fire Alarm Receiving Station.
The part of an automatic fire detection system which constantly or at frequent
intervals monitors suitable physical and/or chemical phenomena for detection
of fires in the area under surveillance.
Fire Protection
Equipment
Fire control or fighting equipment, e.g. extinguishing installation.
A Point, an I/O unit or an Electronic Sounder that is connected to a detection
loop.
A device for the manual initiation of an alarm.
An Operation Zone defines the scope of an Operator Panel. One operation
zone may encompass one or more detection zones. Operation zones are
allowed to be contained in other operation zones, building an hierarchy
consisting of different levels of operation zones.
Operation zones must be fully contained in each other, i.e. the operation
zone can not be partly contained in (overlap) another operation zone.
One operation zone may be controlled by more than one Operator Panel.
A detector or a manual call point.
The Autronica loop communication protocol for high power gas and flame
detectors. 2-wire loop for both power and communication.
The AutroSafe system that is designed to be in Active mode during normal
operation (see Dual Safety).
The AutroSafe system that is designed to be in Standby mode during normal
operation (see Dual Safety).
A program version of the AutroSafe software, spesially designed for maritime
application - Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS).
The AutroSafe system is in Standby Mode when it is ready to take over the
control of the detection loops if the system in Active Mode fails (see Dual
A unit that is directly connected to AutroNet.
