ADVANCED PANELS PROTECT LEADING
BULGARIAN BANK Advanced’s intelligent fire and suppression systems have been chosen to protect the flagship branch of one of Bulgaria’s banks, DSK.
Following a recent upgrade of the flagship branch in Bulgaria’s capital Sofia, long-time Advanced partner FireTech Engineering Ltd specified a new system that included Advanced’s Axis EN (EN54) fire system, three ExGo suppression control panels and an IP Gateway, for remote internet control and monitoring.
Stoyan Grozdanov, spokesperson for FireTech Engineering Ltd, said: “We selected an Advanced system as Axis EN and ExGo set the industry benchmarks for fire alarm and extinguishant release. The panels are very reliable and, due to the importance of this particular branch, we needed a high level of protection and reliability, with assurance against false alarms and an intuitive interface for programming and monitoring.”
Axis EN is EN54 2,4&13 approved and its YOU’RE IN SAFE
HANDS WITH ARCO Arco has launched its first range of specialised hand wipes, designed to protect employees from Weil’s disease, which is debilitating or fatal in 10% of cases.
The wipes work by killing Leptospira bacteria, which causes Leptospirosis that can develop into Weil’s disease. Present in animal urine, particularly rodents, those most at risk are those working in agricultural, construction and waste disposal industries as their working environments may come into contact with rat populations, wastelands, and sewage. Those in close contact with animals, such as farmers, veterinary staff and pest control workers are also at risk of contracting Leptospirosis.
Arco Safe Hands wipes are formulated to kill dangerous bacteria and are

panels can be used in single loop, single panel format or easily configured into high speed, multi-loop panels in 200 node networks covering huge areas.
Advanced’s Axis EN fire systems support two new technologies, the TouchControl touch screen repeater and AlarmCalm complete false alarm management system. TouchControl is a 10” HD touchscreen that offers dynamic reporting and control via a unique interface that includes Active Maps and zone plans.
AlarmCalm uses Advanced’s fast hardware, updated config software and optional loop verification devices to deliver a system that allows the false alarm strategy for any building to be quickly and easily programmed and managed, increasing safety and reducing false alarms.
The ExGo extinguishing control panel range has been developed for sensitive and strategic assets to suit almost all single-flooding area applications, includes a range of control options and devices and includes a large LCD screen for easier programming and management.
a convenient way for employees to disinfect their hands. By simply rubbing their hands with the wipes to also physically remove dirt, Arco’s safety experts advise that employees not only disinfect themselves from harmful Leptospira bacteria, but also from a range of other bacteria and viruses including Pseudomonas, E-Coli, Straphyloccus, Enterococcus and H1N1.
ExGo is approved to EN54 parts 2, 4 and 13 and EN12094-1. It is among the industry’s first to combine these with EN12094 Part 3 in a single solution. EN12094-3 relates to the integrated manual release on the front of the panel.
Etienne Ricoux, Advanced’s Export Sales Manager for Europe, added: “DSK Bank in Sofia is the latest high profile financial institution to be protected by Advanced and is the result of our product leadership and the expertise of our partners.”

Darren Williamson, Product & Procurement Manager from Arco, explains: “Whilst rare, Weil’s disease is a very real risk that employees need to be aware of. Any workers that are potentially at risk should take care to wipe hands before eating, drinking, or using equipment close to the face. It’s also a good idea to use the formulated wipes as soon as possible after handling contaminated clothing, avoid inadvertently touching their face before using a wipe, and covering any cuts with a waterproof dressing.”
In addition, Arco Safe Hands Wipes are packaged in a patented Quick Release Dispenser (QRD) bag that dispenses wipes effectively to improve hand hygiene, but also reduces waste and cares for the environment. Completely sealed and waterproof, the QRD bags eliminate risk of cross-contamination, are compact for easy storage and are convenient on the move.
