Fire protection solutions manufacturer, Advanced, has supplied intelligent fire panels to residential apartment buildings in Roscam, in County Galway, Ireland. The eight residential apartment blocks in Roscam are now protected by Advanced’s Go, its new-generation, single-loop fire alarm control panel. Fire and security service providers, Securecom Claddagh Ltd, carried out the replacement and upgrade of an aging fire alarm system, installing a Go panel in each of the three-storey apartment blocks. Advanced Fire Panels Go panel was installed near the front door of each building, covering their hallways and landlord areas A Go panel was installed near the front door of each building, covering their hallways and landlord areas. The panels were hard-wire integrated with Apollo detectors and with a CSL fire-specific remote monitoring communication device that communicates to an alarm receiving center, allowing the relevant key holders to be informed when triggered. Securecom Claddagh has been using Advanced fire panels for a number of years in its projects due to their ease of programming and standardization across sites, as well as the panels allowing effective technical phone support from Advanced in the event of a fault or unwanted alarm. Author's Quote Jason Small, Director at Securecom Claddagh said: “Advanced supplies fantastic equipment, which is very reliable and offers the same interface whether installing a Go panel on a small site or using an MxPro 5 fire panel for a larger networked site, such as a hotel or factory.” Go was developed so customers can benefit from the performance, reliability, and flexibility Neil Parkin, Advanced Sales Manager for the North, said: “Our Go fire panel features the same interface as our other Advanced fire panels, which means fire and security providers are familiar with how they work, ensuring quick installation. The Go provides sophisticated Advanced configuration but with a single loop making it ideal for small or standalone projects, like the Roscam apartment buildings, that still want robust fire protection to offer real peace of mind. Go was developed so customers can benefit from the performance, reliability, and flexibility they’ve come to expect from our premium MxPro 5 range, but in a cost-effective, single-loop format for simpler sites where networking’s not needed.” Intuitive New Configuration Software Go is the ideal solution for a wide range of single-panel sites – from restaurants, bars, and guesthouses to small offices, shops, salons, and surgeries. On straightforward jobs, Go’s fuss-free installation and configuration save time and money. However, the new panel also makes light work of more complex sites requiring sophisticated cause-and-effect programming options as well as false alarm management and reduction solutions. Go has been developed with the needs of installers, engineers, and end users firmly in mind. A host of features make Go a breeze to set up. An easy-fit chassis with a unique door design enables fast fitting, while familiar controls and menus mean there’s no lengthy learning curve. Intuitive new configuration software makes programming quicker and easier than ever, and a powerful design checker proves the system will work even before visiting the site. In addition, enhanced diagnostics mean fewer faults, faster fixes, and better long-term performance. Site-Specific Installations Cost efficiencies for customers central to Go’s development, delivering maximum functionality Cost efficiencies for customers have also been central to Go’s development, delivering maximum functionality on a small-site budget. The panel has 15 zonal LEDs as standard for clearer visual indication and BS 5839 compliance without the need to buy a separate LED zone card.  Compatibility with three pioneering detector protocols provides wired and wireless options, as well as greater freedom over design and maintenance provider costs. Further cost savings as well as greater flexibility for site-specific installations are available thanks to a choice of two performance options with different maximum numbers of configurable addresses.
