SECURITY


CASE STUDY Sabiha Gökçen International Airport


Siemens has installed a fully- integrated fire, security and energy management solution at Sabiha Gökçen International Airport in Turkey. This intelligent solution has been designed to deliver first- rate protection and maximum energy efficiency for the airport’s passengers, staff and assets and the general public.


and surveillance video cameras can be activated automatically, or in response to an emergency evacuation, wayfinding instructions can ensure safe exit.


Obtaining a return on investment is an important factor in implementing integrated management systems and capitalising on synergies between core subsystems - such as security and fire safety protection, power, communications and building energy management – makes it possible to minimise or remove system overlaps, thereby saving money and improving manpower allocation.


It is common for security and fire safety systems to operate independently, however deep integration across security and fire technologies will not only offer higher levels of performance from these areas, but also create a fully automated approach to task handling and incident management by extending cause and effect to include security within life safety systems.


We are familiar with security subsystems such as CCTV, alarms, access control and perimeter protection working together to protect assets and restrict entry to specific areas, however fire safety systems such as fire detection and clean extinguishing still usually work in isolation. Deeper integration will enable identification and analysis

of unusual behaviour and facilitate more proactive decisions. By combining a wide variety of systems and creating a logical sequence, it is possible to limit potential damage. For example in the event of fire, a workflow-oriented approach driven by security and safety devices, would maximise protection across the site. As video surveillance cameras would verify the situation, ventilation systems would adjust to prevent smoke from spreading, escape routes would be activated and live messaging would alert relevant personnel and facilitate safe, orderly evacuation. The integration of these multiple technologies would enable a complete incident record to be collated and communication with the access control system would create an instant roll call of people on site.


Successful integration contributes to the delivery of strategic and operational objectives and provides a safe and efficient working environment, which is essential to the performance of any organisation. Whilst it is common for building systems to operate independently, deeper integration will not only offer higher levels of performance and greater energy efficiencies, but also create a fully-automated approach to task handling and incident management.

The safety and security system required the installation of 200 video surveillance cameras and 28 digital recorders, and 9,000 Sinteso™ fire detectors combined with 400 carbon monoxide gas detectors, all fully-integrated to provide maximum levels of protection. The operator can view displays of alarms, messages and the status of all connected systems and the modular architecture makes it both cost-effective and scalable. In the event of evacuation, an integrated voice notification system using 4,600 loudspeakers will be activated automatically.


To further enhance safety, a Total Integrated Power system enables power distribution from the medium voltage supply right through to the socket outlet, providing maximum control and improved protection, helping to detect any irregularities in the energy distribution system to prevent the possibility of a fire or power failure.


The Siemens Desigo™ building automation system measures 11,000 data points and reacts by raising blinds, turning off lights and reducing or increasing heating and air conditioning, thereby saving energy and ensuring a comfortable environment inside the terminal.


The integration of security, fire safety and energy management means that all the disciplines are fully coordinated to ensure the airport buildings are safer, more comfortable, more efficient and economical. The solution has the flexibility to adapt to changes in usage and requirements and can be expanded at any time in the future, thus maximising the value of the original investment.
