Fire detection part of station development
Advanced Electronics has supplied intelligent control panels for fire detection and smoke damper control as part of the first phase of the King’s Cross St. Pancras Underground Station redevelopment.
The fire detection system uses sixteen MX-4400 4-loop analogue addressable fire alarm control panels interfaced to Hochiki fire sensors and loop devices. Twelve smoke damper control panels are used to control 140 dampers around the station. This allows all 28 control panels to be networked together using Advanced’s Ad-NeT network, which operates over 2-core fire-resistant cable, to provide an integrated fire safety solution.
