Alarm system is totally wire free

20 September, 2005

Daitem’s Espace alarm system is totally wire free and can have up to 80 alarm points and eight separate partitions.

The Espace wireless alarm system from Daitem is said to be the largest totally wire-free alarm system on the UK market. A system can comprise up to 80 alarm points and eight separate partitions. It is claimed to be the only wireless system with all interconnections between the control panel receiver and accessories being by radio link, including external sirens and keypads. Because no cabling is needed, systems can be installed quickly. A system comprising six detectors, two door contacts and a siren can be installed in less than half a day. An Espace system has two separate lithium batteries with an average operational life of five years to power the control panel. If one battery fails, the other will power the system, and the maintenance contractor can be called immediately to replace the failed battery. The control panel and devices communicate using TwinBand radio transmission using two frequencies in distinct bands. This protects the system from being jammed, accidentally or deliberately. If jamming is detected, Espace provides a local and remote alert.
