Hassantuk is a smart fire and life safety alarm system
created in partnership with the Ministry of Interior of The UAE and Etisalat
Digital Co. Guard Master uses this system to connect buildings of residences
and businesses to a central monitoring base at DCD for immediate
identification, reporting, and suppression of fire and other disasters. Its
speed in responding to fires minimizes fatalities, injuries and property damage
since it alerts DCD the moment a fire is detected.
This type of protection system is mandatory for buildings in
the UAE like tall structures, schools, nurseries, hospitals, hotels, malls, or
any other residential or commercial structures that will require certain safety
measures. Presented below is a step-by-step guide to the technique Guard Master
uses to set up the 24/7 or Hassantuk system for you in UAE.
However, before our company informs DCD about the
installation of the system, it is crucial to establish whether your building
falls under the mandatory installation category according to Dubai Civil
Defense. Such categories frequently encompass high-risk structures such as
hospitals, schools, and buildings with several floors. Therefore, if in doubt,
we recommended to seek the assistance of a fire safety consultant or Dubai
Civil Defense to ensure whether your building needs the Hassantuk system.
The Hassantuk system’s installation is exclusive and can
only be done by Dubai civil defense. This service has been offered by the UAE
government. Working together with an authorized contractor ensures that we
comply with governmental requirements throughout the installation and ensures
that your installed fire system is connected to the Dubai Civil Defense central
monitoring stations.
The DCD will determine which service providers are suitable
for the task and these providers will evaluate the current fire safety systems
in your building by recommending and providing installation services
appropriate to your building. We use this step to make sure that your fire
system installation is done in compliance with the UAE fire safety rules and
also to confirm that your fire system will work to the required maximum
capacity.
During this process, our installation team evaluates:
i. Building Layout: We analyze the structure of the building
to understand where should the smoke detectors, alarms, and fire response
systems be installed.
ii. Current Fire Safety Systems: If the building already has
an existing fire safety system then we will need to wire it to work with
Hassantuk or it might require upgrading.
iii. Communication and Power: Our team makes sure of the
availability of the required communication networks (for 24/7 monitoring) and
the power source for the operation of the system.
Following our assessment, a fire and life safety plan is
established for you to guarantee the system provides comprehensive protection.
After we are done with the assessment and planning phases,
the actual process of installation starts. We will install several components,
including:
i. Smoke and Heat Detectors: These are installed at various
points in your building for the purpose of detecting any traces of fire.
ii. Fire Alarms: The alarms will also be audible so that you
and everyone inside the buildings can hear them clearly in the event of an
emergency.
iii. Control Panel: It functions as the brain of the system,
as it is in charge of all alarms and interacts with the main monitoring system
at DCD.
iv. Communication Links: Your building will also be
connected to the DCD monitoring system by communication networks so that there
is a continuous link between the building and the DCD.
Once DCD is done with the installation, Guard Master ensures
that the system is tested and calibrated with necessary checks and balances to
function effectively. The following aspects are tested:
i. Smoke Detector Sensitivity: The detectors are subjected
to tests to determine their efficiency and speed of detecting fire.
ii. Communication Link: That is how the connection between
your building and the command-and-control centre is checked, we make sure that
it enables proper cooperation in case of an emergency situation.
ii. Alarm Systems: We also sound all the alarms including
the audible ones in order to confirm that they are operational, and easily
audible all across your building.
We make sure that the building staff and occupants are
well-informed on how the system operates. In this step we teach you how to
respond when the alarms are activated, handling escape routines, and being
acquainted with the positions of fire exits.
After we are done with the installation process, the
Hassantuk system will need some regular maintenance to function properly. Our
personnel will occasionally visit to confirm the satisfactory functionality of
all components and the application of upgrades to the software. Furthermore,
our visit will be required to supervise the state of your building fire alarms
and other emergency systems at all times, and be prepared should any mishap
occur.
