Advanced to feature at Intersec 2023

December 6, 2022

Advanced, experts in intelligent fire systems, will be exhibiting on stand F24, Hall 4 at Intersec 2023 (17-19 January at Dubai World Trade Centre).

Advanced will be showcasing its versatile and scalable offering that makes it the one-stop shop for fire-safety solutions. On display will be some new and updated products including the company’s innovative AxisGo, the UL system Axis AX, and its versatile wireless technology.

The fire systems provider’s flexible product range offers solutions suitable for a wide range of settings – from large, complex commercial and industrial sites to small leisure, retail and high-end residential installations. Offering solutions for both UL and EN markets, Advanced really is a one-stop shop for fire safety solutions.

Sasi Kumar, Commercial Manager Middle East and Africa at Advanced said “We’re delighted to be exhibiting at Intersec once again and demonstrating how we can meet a wide variety of fire-safety needs across a wide range of different sites and sectors – from high-rise and infrastructure to hospitality and commercial. We will be showcasing new and updated products and explaining the benefits of each and the problems they can solve.

“Advanced is pleased to be able to offer both EN and UL standard compliance in our Axis EN and Axis AX product ranges respectively. This flexibility is essential for our customers in the Middle East where both EN and UL solutions are used. Furthermore, we are proud that our UK-made products are proven to be robust, reliable, resilient and efficient and offer very effective false-alarm reduction capabilities.”

AxisGo

AxisGo is the new-generation, single-loop fire panel from Advanced that is versatile and packed with premium features, offering a powerful option for protecting smaller sites such as shops, restaurants, surgeries and villas.

Available as a wired, wireless or hybrid system, this versatility makes AxisGo an ideal option when retrofitting onto existing systems that need to be expanded or in settings where disruption from fire system work must be avoided.

To meet demand in the GCC for both EN and UL solutions Advanced offers the Axis EN and Axis AX product ranges respectively. The Axis range is robust, versatile and easy to use – from installation and commissioning to servicing, maintenance and day-to-day operation.

Axis EN

The Axis EN system provides powerful networking capacity and can create robust networks of up to 200 panels. Networks can also be combined to create very large fire systems making the Axis EN ideal for complex, large-scale installations where the EN54 standard is specified.

Whether networking complex, high-risk sites with complicated cause and effect, remotely monitoring networked sites, or integrating with building management systems (BMS), intuitive software and panel navigation make setup straightforward.

Axis EN is also effective in minimising unwanted alarms thanks to AlarmCalm, Advanced’s built-in false alarm management and reduction software which all adds up to making Axis EN a trusted choice.

Axis AX

The UL 864-approved Axis AX fire system makes light work of integrating smoke control and audio or voice options which are frequently required for fire systems in the Middle East. The flexible Axis AX offers integrated audio for automatic (and manual) fire alarm signalling and live voice paging during emergencies.

The system also provides access to DynamixSmoke, a revolutionary approach to smoke control that uses a simple setup and programming process that radically reduces the time and associated costs of configuring fans and dampers. Whether configuring protection across a large networked site, integrating smoke control or combining an audio solution alongside a fire system, Axis AX’s solutions give peace of mind that you are in complete control of your fire protection.

Wireless solutions

Advanced will also be demonstrating the versatility of its wireless offering at Intersec and will be showcasing its MxPro 5 open protocol approach. MxPro 5 offers freedom, flexibility and safety thanks to the panel’s compatibility with a range of leading detector protocols, making it ideal for retrofitting.

Also on display will be the ExGo extinguishing panel which protects critical infrastructure, data centres and sensitive sites where water extinguishing would destroy irreplaceable assets, so gas extinguishing is required. While Advanced’s specialist redundant panel kicks in if the main fire panel stops working and offers 100% hot redundant panel protection – especially useful in settings where there can be no break in fire protection, such as large industrial plants and production lines.

International expansion

Advanced is also looking to expand its presence in the GCC. The company has distribution partners in UAE, Oman and South Africa and is actively looking for new partners in the rest of the GCC and beyond, as well as OEM partnerships globally. In addition, Advanced is recruiting in the region to expand its sales and support teams. Come and to talk to the team on the Advanced stand to find out more.
