VESDA – VERY EARLY WARNING SMOKE DETECTION SYSTEMSThe VESDA brand leads the market in Air-sampling Smoke Detection (ASD). High sensitivity ASD provides the earliest warning of a fire, buying time to investigate the source, control the situation and if necessary, conduct a planned and orderly evacuation. Our solutions reduce the cost of ownership and are trusted to ensure personal safety, the protection of assets and prevent disruptions to business continuity. VESDA systems protect fixed facilities such as the London Underground, the Moscow Metro and the Hong Kong MTR. VESDA systems are also increasingly used to protect the challenging environment of rolling stock for operators such as Madrid Metro, RailCorp and Beijing Metro and rail car OEMs such as Alstom, Bombardier, Changchun, EDI Rail, United Group and CAF. PROACTIV – FIRE CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONSPROACTIV monitors and manages entire fire protection systems by fully integrating VESDA air-sampling smoke detectors and conventional system components. The PROACTIV system is the fire protection system of choice at many of the world's most important facilities; greatly minimising the risks to life, the potential for critical asset damage and the likelihood of service downtime. ADPRO – SECURITY SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMSThe ADPRO brand is renowned for providing sophisticated and high quality digital video security systems, based on the latest technology. ADPRO security solutions are used by London Underground, Metro North New York, Stockholm Underground, the Docklands Light Rail system and more, to protect platforms, rolling stock and for perimeter protection. With advanced integration capabilities and an acute understanding of operational efficiency, ADPRO continues to offer seamless security solutions that exceed the risk management demands of today's rail facilities. SMOKE, FIRE AND SYSTEM MODELLING AND TESTINGXtralis uses a range of sophisticated modelling techniques, such as CFD, and in-situ tests to solve challenging fire safety problems. The tailored design of the systems ensures enhanced building and life safety, maintenance of business continuity and supports risk management strategies and enhanced commercial returns. Our applications engineering group assists fire industry professionals in developing or appraising the performance and effectiveness of innovative fire detection, control and voice alarm system designs. This includes studying the impact of changing environmental or operating conditions such as air flows, smoke stratification and responses to a variety of fire hazards.
