Fire alarm system ready in less time
Logiscan Security Systems has completed a fire alarm installation over 4 floors at Express Business Park, Somerset, in a third of the usual time, thanks to Pirelli’s rapid FP FIREFIX™ system.
The multifunctional ‘Exchange’ building at the centre of the business park is constructed using a steel frame with concrete slabs. FP FIREFIX™ clips can be fired into a variety of base materials, including concrete, using ITW’s Spit Pulsa 700E cordless gas nailing tool, making it ideal for this installation.
Logiscan’s technical director Andrew Humphries said, “It was important for us to use a fixing system that would help to support the cables in the event of a fire. Pirelli’s FP FIREFIX™ system provided us with a logical way of getting the cable installed in a sensible manner that complies with the requirements of BS5839
