Safety Notes
With the exception of FireVu detectors, all FireVu equipment is for indoor use only. FireVu
equipment is robustly constructed and can be heavier than it looks. Suitable precautions MUST be
taken when handling them to prevent personal injury. They must only be installed in accordance
with local regulations by suitably trained and qualified persons.
Note:
Before deciding upon a position for Video Smoke Detection detectors the potential fire
hazards must first be identified. The client or consultant will need to perform the risk assessment
and identify the nature and area of risk within the detector field of view.
A FireVu installation is intended for use as an automated early warning system and not as a primary
protection method, except where no other detection method is practicable. An in-depth
knowledge of the monitored area and fire risk is required to use FireVu effectively.
FireVu should not be used as a direct means of activating any fire suppression equipment. NetVu
Limited require that there must be human visual verification before any suppression equipment is
activated. The operator must have the ability to quickly raise the alarm, initiate the fire evacuation
procedure and activate fire suppression equipment as appropriate. Consequently, it is strongly
recommended that a break-glass call point be sited within easy reach of the VSD monitor operator.
