FireDos Early Fire Detection

Waste, wood and paper processing facilities present high fire risks. FireDos early fire detection systems using infrared (IR) cameras identify potential fire sources within minutes — even before smoke or flames appear. Combined with remote-controlled FireDos monitors, the system enables automated, pinpoint extinguishing that minimises system downtime and collateral damage.

Key Advantages

• Rapid response — fires detected before smoke appears • Minimised system downtime and false alarms • Automated surveillance and pinpoint extinguishing • Full-surface panoramic thermal imaging of large areas • Smart software filters out false positives (engines, exhaust pipes) • Compatible with water or foam extinguishing

Typical Applications

Early fire detection systems are used wherever fires may develop from undetected heat sources:

Waste incineration and recycling plants — smouldering fires often caused by damaged lithium-ion batteries · Timber processing, sawmills and pellet plants — wood dust creates explosive atmospheres · Paper mills and paper warehouses — paper and paper dust are highly combustible
