LPCB is delighted to announce an addition to our range of Fire Detection approvals to include EN 54-25:2008: Fire detection and fire alarm systems - Part 25: Components using radio links.

The majority of fire detection systems installed within buildings have traditionally been of the ‘hardwired’ type, using cables to link various fire sensors, system components and control panels. These have proved to be robust and reliable. More recently, radio-linked or ‘wireless’ fire detection systems have offered a credible alternative, giving a comparable level of performance and range of features to conventional hardwired systems.

A wireless system can vary from the very simple (e.g. consisting of a panel and a few sensors protecting a single building) to a fully networked solution comprising many control panels, several thousand smoke detectors and other wireless components, spanning numerous buildings. Wireless components may also be combined with existing hardwired devices to form hybrid systems.

These factors have resulted in greater confidence and acceptance of wireless systems for fire protection.
