What is the challenge for Eurofyre? Supplying a range of wireless detectors and alarms with a highly reliable autonomous power.
When it comes to security, there can’t be any compromise. You have to be able to rely completely on your equipment. For Eurofyre, a global provider of specialist fire detection and safety products, the efficiency of their wireless fire detection and alarm equipment depended on the choice of a trustworthy battery solution.
To meet the demands of today’s fire alarm and life safety requirements, they created Wi-Fyre, a unique, flexible, cost-effective, and non-invasive wireless system, universally compatible with new or existing installations. The wireless devices co-exist seamlessly with hard-wired fire alarm systems, regardless of the type, age or technology of the existing system, creating a hybrid system topology. Batteries are a critical component of the technology. They have to be compact whilst offering long life and high reliability.
Lives are at stake!
