The flexible emergency alert system
We’ve discussed in our news section previously about the benefits of the WES temporary wireless fire alarm system – but why does it have a reputation for being so simple to have on site? Well, let us begin with pre-installation. We can help you set up your system in terms of design, using your floorplans. This can help you conform to regulations such as BS5839.
Then comes the installation once the WES system has arrived on site. Other systems need to be installed by an engineer, costing both money and time. The WES system however – be it WES+ or the latest generation of wireless fire alarm, WES3 – is designed to be easily self-installed, and specialist installation is not required. However, should you need assistance, we can send a specialist to site to help you set up the system (geographic restrictions may apply) and show you ‘the ropes’ of operation. With a range of ‘How To’ videos and technical literature available via the VIP area of our website, plus support from our customer services team, there are many ways we can support you.
The flexibility of WES is one of the key reasons why site managers choose WES – as the whole system is wireless, including the control unit, each unit can be moved around easily if required by simply removing the securing screws. Units can be taken out of the system, or additional ones put in, at any point. With a 3-year battery life under normal conditions, our units are quite often used on several projects, adding extra value – and of course, we can change the batteries if required too. You can even hire the WES system for 3 months or more rather than purchasing outright if desired, depending on your location.
Couple to this off-site communication via our REACT platform and optional linking to existing 3rd party systems via the WES interface and you have the ultimate in a flexible, durable, wireless emergency alert system.
