Video fire detection

The IFV-1000 from Johnson Controls of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a video system designed to identify fires earlier and at a longer range than conventional detection technologies can. It detects flames in the camera’s field of view, reflected flickering light, pluming smoke clouds, ambient smoke, and intrusions. Customers can use existing surveillance cameras to monitor fire and security at the same time. The system is ideal for facilities with critical assets, large spaces, or remote sites, particularly because the system is Internet-enabled for remote monitoring through PDAs.
