Integration into automated fire extinguishing systems
For remote-controlled operation in stationary extinguishing systems, our monitors can be equipped with functional controls. Integration into existing thermal imaging systems is possible. Users benefit from minimum reaction times and maximum reliability.
-
For all types of electric drives
Whether direct current, alternating current or three-phase current, regardless of voltage or frequency – we offer control systems for all types of electric drives.
-
Numerous control functions
Remote control of all monitor functions is possible – from moving to the park and working positions, through the oscillation function, to the automatic self-test.
-
Remote service
Via the integrated gateway, the FireDos service can access the control system remotely, if required, and following consultation with the customer, to provide support during commissioning and maintenance work.
-
Portable and stationary control units
Control is carried out via mobile or permanently mounted control panels. Portable radio remote controls and/or wired control panels are available for operation.
-
Customised Integration of external systems
Our extinguishing monitors process signals from early fire detection and flame detection systems from various manufacturers. They also support signal exchange with higher-level control systems and fire alarm control panels.
-
Intuitive control, absolute precision: The SCON operating interface
At the heart of our SCON control system is the intuitive user interface for the quick and precise Operation of the FireDos monitors during maintenance and commissioning.
-
Full system control
Switch seamlessly between the individual monitors in your system and access detailed settings, Parameters or system information as required. The clearly structured menu navigation makes configuration and maintenance easier than ever before.
SCON: The smart control system for fire monitors
Precision firefighting taken to a whole new level: with FireDos’ SCON stationary monitor control system, you have your fire protection system under control at all times, wherever you are. Our modular concept offers you a tailor-made solution that adapts perfectly to the requirements of your premises – from a single unit to an extensive network.
Modular and scalable for any system size
At the heart of the system is the SCON-MAIN control cabinet with integrated PLC. From here, you control the entire network. Easily expand your system with up to seven SCON-SUB control cabinets, each Controlling an additional extinguishing monitor. This intelligent architecture enables cost-effective scaling and simple installation.
- Centralised management: All system components can be operated and configured via the HMI in the MAIN control cabinet.
- Grows with your requirements: Start small and expand the system at any time.
- Simple networking: Reliable connection via standard network cables.
Maximum operational flexibility
Whether directly at the control cabinet, via a wired control panel or using the long-range wireless remote control – you decide how you want to control your monitors. The highlight: every control element can be connected to any MAIN or SUB control cabinet in the network. This means the control system is always available exactly where you need it.
- Free choice: radio remote control (up to 200 m) or wired control panel
- Decentralised control: operate the entire system from any control point.
- Intuitive operation: Fast and safe response in an emergency
Seamless integration and maximum security
The SCON control system is designed to integrate perfectly into your existing security infrastructure. Numerous interfaces enable connection to fire alarm panels or higher-level control systems. Optionally available Alarm inputs allow the triggering of pre-programmed extinguishing scenarios, whilst a VPN gateway enables remote maintenance and diagnostics. An optional uninterruptible power supply (UPS) ensures maximum operational reliability even in the event of a power cut.
- Smart connectivity: Interfaces for control systems (potential-free contacts) and detection systems (Modbus TCP/IP)
- Automated scenarios: Faster response thanks to predefined extinguishing sequences
- Reliability: Optional UPS guarantees functionality when it matters most
