Kentec completes project with Barclays in South Africa
29 August 2017
A NEW life safety system based around Kentec’s control panel technology is protecting a major Barclays Bank installation in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The new fire safety system, supplied and installed by SFP Security & Fire (Pty) Ltd, in an L1 system configuration, includes a new network of four Kentec Syncro AS analogue addressable fire control panels. The open protocol system has Apollo analogue Series 65 devices and call points installed.
In areas such as Server/Data Rooms, MV and LV rooms, generator and diesel tank rooms, existing extinguishant protection has been extended with the addition of five Sigma XT+ Extinguishing Control Panels to the existing network of fifteen Sigma XT Panels. The extinguishing control panels are being monitored by the four Kentec Syncro AS analogue addressable fire control panels through multiple three channel interface units, which form part of the addressable building detection loops.
Kentec’s Sigma XT Extinguishing Control Panel range is designed to comply with the requirements of EN12094-1, EN54-2 & EN54-4. It features three detection zones as standard, where any zone or any combination of zones can be configured to release the extinguishant gas and allows delay in first stage sounder and detection to be configured, with an instant release facility by using the manual release option. The Kentec Sigma XT is compatible with Intrinsically Safe barriers, which makes it ideal for use in hazardous areas.
