Video fire detection by Technoswitch

SMART Alarms & Fire Safety Handbook 2026 Products & Solutions, Fire & Safety

Video fire detection technology can complement broader fire detection strategies in environments where dust, dirt, fumes, moisture, light levels, temperature, or access conditions pose challenges for traditional technologies.

Ciqurix Video Fire Detection technology uses camera-based systems to identify signs of fire in challenging environments. VFD is especially effective in large commercial spaces, waste and recycling facilities, warehouses, cold storage environments and outdoor areas where environmental conditions can challenge traditional detection technologies.

The Ciqurix CORE system is LPS 1976-certified (LPCB) and uses advanced VFD technology, combining visual and infrared analysis to help identify confirmed fire in extreme environments.

CORE provides primary fire detection using multi-spectral video analytics onboard each detection device. The system complies with BS5839-1:2017, uses fire-rated cabling, and will operate from its internal battery supply for 24 hours.

FLEX is a fire system that provides supplementary fire detection using multi-spectral video analytics onboard each detection device. It is designed to support existing fire solutions and security teams and to integrate with existing NVR systems.

• Designed to protect demanding environments.

• Detects multiple fires in seconds.

• Operates in all light levels.

• Dual lens technology.

• LPS 1976-certified (LPCB).
