Self-contained Detectors
Fixfire® offers self-contained gas detectors in battery only, mains only, or combined mains with battery backup versions.
The most common self-contained gas detector we supply is for the detection of carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is a potential killer. It is a poisonous gas that is colourless, odourless and tasteless. Exposure to low levels of carbon monoxide can lead to headaches and nausea. High levels can cause death within minutes.
We also offer self-contained gas detectors for the detection of propane and methane.
Self-contained gas detectors can be configured to provide a signal to other ancillary systems/equipment to raise the alert in the event of activation.
Gas Detection Systems
Fixfire® installs gas detection systems in all kinds of applications – examples of completed installations include a carbon monoxide gas detection system installed throughout a Blue Chip state of the art automotive vehicle design centre, an engine test cell complex for an international automotive company and throughout a large waste to energy plant.
Fixfire® offers a full range of gas sensors primarily for personnel protection against toxic, flammable and asphyxiate gases. To complement the range of gas sensors, we offer a range of alarm indicator panels including advanced multi-sensor addressable systems designed for larger installations.
Gases we can detect include the following:
Toxic Gases
Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen Sulphide, Sulphur Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxide, Nitrogen Dioxide, Chlorine, Hydrogen, Hydrogen Cyanide, Hydrogen Chloride, Ammonia, Ozone, Ethylene Oxide, Phosphine and Carbon Dioxide.
Flammable Gases
Hydrogen, Methane, Ethane, Propane, Butane, Pentane.ing at commissioning stage and on an on-going basis following installation.
KeyCall® is a revolutionary patent-granted Key Operated Fire Alarm Activation Device which has been developed specifically for ‘approved’ applications where standard fire alarm call points would be vulnerable to abuse. Developed by Fixfire® in response to growing demand from the Mental Health Care sector, KeyCall® is a revolutionary one-piece analogue addressable key operated manual call point.
Compatible with a wide range of Conventional and Addressable Fire Alarm Systems.
KeyCall® accepts a Euro-Profile style cylinder
Typically suited/keyed-alike cylinders are fitted so that authorised persons can activate KeyCall® using their standard door key.
Key ‘Click-latch’ mechanism ensures key ‘latches’ in correct position to activate Fire Alarm System.
Anti-ligature low-profile flush-mounting design.
Neat minimalistic one piece construction incorporating Fire Alarm interface module.
Red fire indicator illuminates when KeyCall® is activated.
Compatible with a wide range of Conventional and Addressable Fire Alarm Systems
Applications include:
- Prisons
- Mental Healthcare
- Special Educational Needs (SEN) School

British Standard Design requirements...
- Install AFD to voids greater than 800mm
- Treat downward projections exceeding 10% of the void depth as wall
BS5839-Part 1:2013 states:
22.2d) If the system Category is such that automatic fire detection should be provided in any area that contains a horizontal void of 800 mm or more in height, automatic fire detection should also be provided in the void.
22.3j) Ceiling obstructions, such as structural beams, deeper than 10% of the overall ceiling height should be treated as walls [see Figure 10a)]. NOTE 10 Within horizontal voids, beams or obstructions that are deeper than 10% of the overall depth of the void regardless of whether the void is above the ceiling or below the floor, ought to be treated as walls that subdivide the void.
