Variety in design and fast installation Advanced smoke ventilation protects students


A £55 million student accommodation development in Nottingham is using inte- grated smoke and heat exhaust ventilation systems from SE Controls to provide smoke free escape routes for around 1,000 students living in the new purpose designed apartments at Chettles Yard. To meet the fire safety and smoke venti- lation needs in three of the new buildings at the Chettles Yard development, SE Controls developed specific smoke and heat ventilation solutions for each accommodation block based around its versatile SHEVTEC® SHEVTEC®


system. The by smoke sensors through SE Controls’ powerful OSLoop®


system uses a dual smoke shaft and fan ventilated solution linked control system,


which when triggered determines which shaft is closest to the fire and auto- matically opens the smoke shaft doors on each floor to extract smoke away from escape routes, corridors and stairs. Once actuated, OSLoop® monitor the entire system throughout the incident.

There was a time when radio linked, self-contained, smoke and heat alarms for installation in residential applications were difficult to install and ugly! No more; Detectomat has launched Cascade, a new system of commercial grade self- contained alarms with a range of designer cover options. They offer a significant saving on installation cost and an attractive solution: select the combination of smoke and/or heat alarms required, install them by screw or adhesive pad, plug in the radio module and long life lithium battery supplied and it is done: auto- matic radio linked alarms with no expensive techies or test gear required. Plus no damage or redecoration and they are self-monitoring i.e. if there is a problem they tell you what and where for simple rectification. As a bonus they can be purchased to compliment your decor, available in different designs and colours: glass, satin silver, matt black or white to complement the latest contemporary or more traditional interior designs.
