Spectiv seeks SA distributors for smoke beam detectors
SPECTIV, a UK-based innovator in fire and smoke detection technology, is actively seeking experienced distributors and partners to bring its cutting-edge technology to businesses across Africa and the Middle East.
The company recently launched its latest range of linear smoke beam detectors in the Asia-Pacific region to great success. The range has been designed to enhance fire detection in expansive commercial premises such as factories, warehouses, airport terminals, shopping malls, museums, churches, and buildings with large ceiling voids.
Introducing the UL certified linear smoke beam detector series
Spectiv’s flagship product line, the G8NB series, consists of two models—the G8NB-50 and G8NB-100—designed to detect smoke in high-ceiling environments where traditional point detectors may be ineffective. Both models are UL 268 7th Edition certified.
Call for distributors in South Africa
Mark Tibbenham, Spectiv’s Commercial Director says, “Production of our UL-certified detectors is running at full capacity to keep pace with strong demand and a growing order book, with sales and now repeat sales primarily in the Asia Pacific region.”
“We would very much like to engage with a South African partner and distributors to launch and promote our innovative product line to the South African market as well as to neighbouring countries. Once we have this in place, along with stock available, fire/security installers will be able to purchase directly from our officially appointed distributors.”
Key features of the G8NB Series
- Wide coverage: The G8NB-50 covers up to 50 metres, while the G8NB-100 extends up to 100 metres, ensuring optimal fire detection across large open spaces.
- Simple and cost-effective installation: Unlike electronic alignment systems, Spectiv’s innovative mechanical alignment simplifies installation while reducing costs.
- Versatile integration: These detectors seamlessly integrate with conventional fire alarm panels or analogue addressable systems through interface input modules.
- Customisable alarm settings: Four selectable alarm threshold levels (25%, 35%, 50% and 75%) allow for tailored sensitivity based on environmental conditions.
- Enhanced safety alerts: Latching and non-latching alarm outputs with volt-free contacts ensure clear, timely fire and fault notifications.
