Fire safety to meet all requirements.
Siemens is the global market leader in fi re
safety. From initial risk analysis all the way
through to service, our products, systems
and solutions are technologically superior
and continue to set new benchmarks for
the entire industry:
Innovative fi re detectors with state-of-
the-art ASAtechnology™ (Advanced
Signal Analysis) are individually confi g-
ured to potential dangers and even
come with a Genuine Alarm Guarantee*.
Voice-controlled evacuation systems,
which guarantee gradual, priority-based
evacuation of danger zones and also
serve as internal communication systems
for customers and employees and as
a means of transmitting information
during everyday operations.
Modern extinguishing systems, which
are geared to the specifi c needs of the
location and react quickly to fi res while
doing as little damage as possible to
the surroundings.
Apart from this, our products and systems
can easily be integrated into existing and
future solutions.
Intelligent security solutions
for buildings and public infrastructure.
Security is no longer seen as a luxury but
rather as an integral part of company
strategy. Instead of buying solutions to
individual problems, more and more
customers are opting for all-in packages
that generate a real return on investment
throughout the building‘s entire life
cycle. Our portfolio includes comprehen-
sive security solutions and services with
the emphasis on intrusion detection,
video surveillance, access control and
danger management.
To promote a more holistic approach
to security, we are breaking down the
barriers between individual system
components and developing technol-
ogies that offer fully integrated and
interoperable security solutions based
on our 30 years of security expertise.
Integrated systems permit central
management of entire sequences of
events. Precision assessment of situa-
tions, effi cient resource allocation and
complete control over the measures
deployed guarantee the continuity of
all business processes.
Seamless interaction between various
digital systems calls for open, uniform
standards. Siemens has identifi ed this
need and put it into practice; with the
13
result that the company can now deliver
integrated solutions for individual
rooms, buildings and even entire cities.
As the need for security expands to
cover increasingly large areas, we are
moving away from static building
solutions towards dynamic networks
and opening up new ways of tackling
the global challenges that face us today.
Our security systems and solutions enable
users to monitor fi re safety and security
devices as well as their HVAC systems from
a single control point. Future-proof and
compatible with existing systems, they will
grow with the business and its evolving
requirements, delivering true return on
investment for years to come.
Comprehensive services for greater
fl exibility, productivity and profi tability.
