Join us for our Security Expo, where we will be showcasing the latest technology in both physical and cyber security. The event takes place on Friday 10th May at the Silverbirch Hotel in Omagh. We look forward to seeing you there!

Hydrogen Flame Detection System

We recently completed the installation of Hydrogen Flame Detection system at Ireland’s first renewable hydrogen production facility at Long Mountain Wind Farm in Co Antrim. The facility will produce renewable hydrogen to be used as a fuel in transportation, starting with a fleet of busses operated by Translink in the North of Ireland. Hydrogen is a zero emission fuel that, when produced using renewable power, can meet transport needs with minimal environment impact.

Partnering with MSA, we installed the FL500-H2 Ultraviolet / Infrared flame detection system, designed specifically to detect hydrogen (H2) fires. The FL500-H2 optical flame detector monitors for radiation emitted by a hydrogen flame in both the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) spectral ranges. This UV/IR combination provides a fast response time and increased false alarm immunity against sources of radiation for reliable protection.

The FL500-H2 detectors are cabled back to the MSA GasGard XL Controller used to monitor up to eight remote gas sensors and is linked to the fire alarm system that can instantly shut down the production plant if a flame is detected.

CCTV upgrade at FODC Gortrush Civic Amenity Site

Recently, we carried out an upgrade of old legacy CCTV equipment at Fermanagh Omagh District Council’s Gortrush Civic Amenity Site, or more commonly known as ‘The Dump’.

The team fitted a total of 14 Hikvision AcuSense 4MP PoE Bullet cameras around this large site on lighting columns, buildings and transfer sheds, giving council staff a superb panoramic view of the whole site and specific areas including entrance, exits, public and commercial weighbridges, recycling areas, waste containers/sheds and parking bays to ensure a high level of video surveillance for crime prevention and public safety.

All Cat6 cables have been installed using steel conduit to protect against the high levels of vermin on the site. Given the scale of the site, we were also able to use the existing fibre network to reduce cable runs back to the comms cabinet in the weighbridge office. We also installed a 43-inch HDMI Monitor so staff can monitor the site with ease.
