SAFETIS Control Unit

RAPID DETECTION OF FLARE-UPS

The SAFETIS Control Unit detects fires before they occur by tracking temperature. As the central unit of the the SAFETIS system, the Control Unit analyzes information from up to 16 thermal cameras at once.

Description

UP TO 16 THERMAL CAMERAS AND SAMPLE APPLICATION

SAFETIS thermal cameras can be configured, stream images, and execute a wide variety of functions independently via the built-in Web server.  The SAFETIS Control Unit ensures a high level of integration and delivers a series of advanced functions.

The central unit is designed for customer application development. For these purposes, a sample application in LabView is included in the package. It shows how to work with a large number of thermal imagers within one application, responses to individual alarm events and virtually all other functions of the SAFETIS system.

SAFETIS SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The following thermal cameras are included in the SAFETIS system:

STAINLESS STEEL & EX-PROOF

The SAFETIS system also features two very special thermal cameras. First, there’s the SAFETIS Stainless Steel. Ensconced in a protective cover that preserves system integrity in industrial environments with highly corrosive substances, this camera is also ideal wherever aluminum is prohibited. It offers a high level of coverage in demanding outdoor settings.

Next comes the SAFETIS EX-proof, which is clothed in a specially modified shield that is specially designed for areas that have a high risk of explosion. The EX-proof is ATEX certified and meets the strictest safety standards.

SAFETIS THERMAL CAMERAS DELIVER RAPID FIRE DETECTION

SAFETIS thermal cameras operate on a simple principle: they detect fires through the continuous measurement of temperature changes. These cameras are equipped with custom-built algorithms that deliver advanced analyses of temperature trends. As a result, SAFETIS systems can alert operators to the mere risk of a flare-up, well before any fire has broken out. These cameras also eliminate false alarms by providing comprehensive thermal data for the recorded scene. The result is a highly accurate system that enables effective fire control by raising an alarm before smoke detectors and CCTV cameras have a chance to respond.

THREE PHASES OF FIRE DETECTION

1. Gradual Heating

What happens right before a fire starts? While there may be no flame, a thermal camera can still see that something’s amiss. That’s because temperatures must rise for any material to combust. Even though smoke detectors won’t respond, the SAFETIS system will react.

2. Smoke Generation

Smoke follows heat, so phase two of any fire is visible to the naked eye – and to a smoke detector. However, once smoke rises, the risk of rapid combustion is very high. A reaction in phase two may be too late.

3. Flare-up

In this final phase, both fire and smoke are clearly evident. Today, both CCTV cameras and smoke detectors alert operators to flare-ups, but their alarms often come too late to avert the loss of life and property. That’s why the SAFETIS was designed to give safety pros a fighting chance at stopping a fire.
