A wireless fire system uses radio signals instead of traditional cabling to connect control panels with detectors and accessories. This type of system offers reliable performance while reducing installation time and disruption, especially in buildings where wired connections are impractical or costly to install.

These detectors are suitable for both small and large sites, with consistent signal strength and battery-powered operation that ensures continued monitoring during power outages. Benefits of Wireless Detectors Faster installation – No need for drilling or routing cables through walls. Minimal disruption – Ideal for occupied premises like schools, offices, and listed buildings. Reliable coverage – Devices can be placed wherever needed, with repeaters used to boost signal range if required. Wi...
