What is Addressable Type Fire Alarm Systems?
Diginet makes addressable fire alarm systems one of the types of fire alarm systems used in large areas such as large and complex structures. These systems provide detailed information about the fire hazard detected by the fire detection devices, helping to determine where the fire started and in which area it occurred. Addressable type fire alarm systems connect fire detection devices in different parts of the building to a network monitored and managed by a central control unit. In this way, in the event of a fire, the system quickly detects in which area a fire has been detected and accelerates the fire response by directing the relevant emergency teams to the right area. Addressable type fire alarm systems are more sensitive and reliable compared to older technologies and can prevent loss of life and property damage by contributing to the safety of large buildings.

What are Fire Alarm Systems?
Fire alarm systems are electronic systems used for early warning and alarm in case of a possible fire. In general, fire alarm systems can be classified into two types: addressable type fire alarm systems and conventional fire alarm systems. Conventional fire alarm systems are a type used for smaller structures. In these systems, fire detection devices are placed in different parts of the building and each device controls a specific area. In the event of a fire, the fire detection devices trigger an alarm in the relevant area. Diginet conventional fire alarm systems are less complex and cheaper, making them suitable for small-scale structures. Addressable type fire alarm systems are designed for larger buildings and complex structures. In these systems, fire detection devices are connected to a network monitored and managed by a central control unit. Each device has a unique address of the system. Addressable type fire alarm systems can determine when a fire is detected, in which region and even on which device it is detected. In this way, emergency teams can quickly perform a fire response in the right area. Today, fire alarm systems have become more advanced with advances in technology. Some systems are equipped with various sensors such as temperature, smoke, light, air quality and gas detection devices. In addition, Dijinet can be integrated with some fire alarm systems, fire extinguishers and automatic fire extinguishing systems. These systems are vital for minimizing the risk of fire and ensuring life safety.
What is a Conventional Fire Alarm System?
Conventional fire alarm system is a type of fire alarm system designed for smaller scale buildings such as small and less complex structures. These systems are based on the principle that fire detection devices control a certain area and give an early warning about the fire hazard. In conventional fire alarm systems, fire detection devices are placed in different parts of the building and each device controls a specific area. In the event of a fire, the fire detection devices trigger an alarm in the relevant area. These alarms are routed to a dashboard that shows where the fire is in the zone. On the panel, the zone indicator that triggers the alarm lights up and in case of emergency, firefighters are directed to the correct area. Conventional fire alarm systems are suitable for small scale structures as they are less complex and less expensive. However, for larger and more complex structures, addressable type fire alarm systems may be a more suitable option. Such systems help determine the detailed location of fire detection devices and quickly identify where the fire started. As a result, conventional fire alarm systems are a type of fire alarm system that is widely used in small-scale buildings and is designed for early warning and alarming. These systems help prevent loss of life and property damage by speeding up the response time against fire hazards.
What is an Addressable Type Fire Alarm System?
Addressable type fire alarm system is a fire alarm system used in large areas such as large buildings, facilities and industrial areas. This system uses a control panel that monitors the fire detection devices in different parts of the buildings separately and determines the location and status of each device. In this system, each fire detection device has an address and the control panel detects at which addresses the devices are located and which address is triggered in the event of a fire alarm on a device. In this way, the source of the fire alarm is quickly detected and the right action is taken. Diginet addressable type fire alarm systems have more advanced technology than other existing fire alarm systems and provide more reliability. However, installation and maintenance costs are higher.
