The University of Buckingham has selected intelligent fire alarm control panels from leading global fire systems manufacturer, Advanced, for the refurbishment of its campus accommodation.
Founded in 1973, as Britain’s only private University with a Royal Charter the University is currently undertaking a comprehensive revamp of its historic estate, including new fire alarm systems fitted by Chris Lewis Fire and Security. Advanced’s multiprotocol MxPro 4 panels were selected due to their reputation for outstanding quality, reliability and ease of use.
Elaine Wearing, spokesperson for Chris Lewis Fire and Security, said: “The improvements to the Buckingham campus have involved bringing all the buildings up to the latest standards. The requirement was for all systems to be extendable and upgradable into the future, which is why we settled on Advanced panels. MxPro 4 is not only fully compatible with all of the detector and sounder products we needed to install, it can also be networked to cover the entire campus in a single integrated network.”
A number of MxPro 4 panels were installed across the campus, connected to Apollo and Hyfire detection equipment covering every student bedroom, and all kitchens and communal areas. There is also an alarm monitoring system on site and the installation has been fitted with BMS graphics cards to allow full integration with this system. This means all of these fire alarm systems can be observed and controlled from the University’s central control room.
