Are you curious about the best methods of detecting fire in challenging environments? Or maybe you just want some CPD points... Join Fire Safety Matters and Thermocable on 5 June 2024 at 10:30am as we consider the most efficient and effective ways to detect the threat of fire in challenging environments. With the ever-growing popularity of e-vehicles - coupled with the dirty, dusty and damp environments of car parks - fires in this sector are becoming more common, and are often detected too late. Linear heat detection not only meets the BS5839 regulatory compliance and standards, it is designed to provide the earliest form of detection, prevent false alarms, and is entirely unaffected by airflow, dangerous chemicals or toxins. Join our CPD accredited webinar for a more in depth discussion with our Technical Director, Tom Robst, and Commercial Manager, Harry Buck.

The article then delves into the applications of GAO Tek’s infrared thermometers and cameras in firefighting. These applications include fire hotspot detection, search and rescue operations, fire suppression assessment, structural analysis, and hazardous materials detection. The infrared technology helps firefighters identify and prioritize hotspots, locate individuals in low-visibility environments, assess the effectiveness of firefighting operations, analyze structural integrity, and detect potential hazards associated with hazardous materials. https://lnkd.in/g8xdqCGb

Telgian Engineering & Consulting, LLC (TEC) is a proud sponsor of the 2023 Fire Protection Research Foundation webinar series. The final FPRF webinar for the year, “Survey of Stakeholder Perceptions of Wildfire Mitigations for Homes in California and Oregon” is scheduled for November 29, 2023 at 12:30 pm EST.   According to NFPA, there are approximately 45 million homes at risk to wildfire in the United States today. To reduce the loss from wildfires, these structures must be retrofitted to reduce the risk of ignition. However, voluntary initiatives are necessary to make these changes. This webinar will explore the action needed from government, insurers, and other stakeholders to aid in these urgently needed initiatives.
