What is Fire Detection & Alarm System (FDAS)

FDAS stands for Fire Detection and Alarm System which is a system that detects fire and alerts occupants within a centrally monitored and controlled area.

These systems are self-monitored, distinguishing where the alerts inside the building(s) come from and recognizing when errors happen in wiring and connections that might obstruct the system from working effectively.

How Fire Detection and
Alarm System (FDAS) Works?

FDAS is useful especially to places or establishments where many people gather, congregate, or assemble together like businesses and other industries.

Fire detector is activated by either smoke or heat detectors connected to the central fire alarm control panel that send signal and trigger the alarms. FDAS systems are commonly connected to public address system, access control systems and other emergency evacuation systems.

Conventional FDAS

A conventional FDAS makes use of analog technology. Its devices are composed of zones and they are analog in the sense that they utilize electrical currents to relay with the control panel. A conventional FDAS is fit for businesses with open spaces and those that do not contain many divisions or rooms.

Semi-Addressable FDAS

A semi-addressable FDAS is a combination of Addressable FDAS and conventional FDAS. Its control panel is addressable type while its detectors are conventional. The addressable panel can be mixed with conventional detectors through a module. A semi addressable FDAS can be used by businesses that want to upgrade their system or depending on their requirements.

Small business establishments also make use of conventional fire alarm systems like FDAS in Spas, FDAS for Restaurants, and FDAS for coffee shops. Although some office spaces have many rooms, there are some FDAS for Office buildings that use a conventional system. An example of this is an FDAS for Data Centers which is a small but vital facility. In the case of FDAS for Construction Businesses like construction sites which most of the time impose large risks when left undetected have different needs or requirements. In some cases, standalone units are enough but as the site grows, the fire alarm and detection system also grow along with it so it still needs to be modified in the process.

FDAS for Business Establishments

For large business establishments, Addressable Fire Alarm Systems are recommended. One example of these is FDAS in Airports. In some cases, people also use or install smoke detectors for transportation since vehicles are prone to fire. Other examples are FDAS for Condominiums, FDAS for residential buildings, and FDAS for Commercial Buildings especially those buildings with several floors and units. Some or selected FDAS for Hospitals as well as FDAS for Nurse Stations also uses an addressable system since these buildings are also composed of divisions per ward, station, and room which is also similar to FDAS for Hotels and FDAS for Resorts.

Bigger venues that cater to massive audiences also use addressable fire alarm systems such as FDAS for supermarkets, FDAS for Stadiums, and FDAS for Museums. FDAS for Malls and FDAS for shopping centers are also recommended to use addressable fire alarm systems since these are big places where many people gather to shop and buy. FDAS for Schools and FDAS for Auditoriums are also recommended to use addressable but may also opt for semi-addressable types since they are big venues that consist of long hallways and several classrooms.

Anyway, Semi-Addressable may be applicable to many businesses especially if they opt to do upgrades but want to cut costs as an option.
