SWING - wireless detectors
Wireless technology for maximum life safety and application flexibility
With SWING, Siemens sets new safety standards in wireless fire alarm systems – by combining the highly reliable mesh technology for safe wireless transmission with the unique ASAtechnology™ for high detection reliability and system availability. SWING is the ideal solution for rooms or buildings of historical value, with aesthetic or architectural needs or for temporary installations.
Siemens Wireless Next Generation
Thanks to wireless technology, devices can be quickly and freely positioned and repositioned. This facilitates planning, enables cost-efficient installation and also offers a high degree of freedom and flexibility when it comes to room use or building structure changes.
Maximum protection with unique technology
SWING is the first radio fire detection system on the market that uses the innovative mesh technology instead of the conventional star topology, ensuring safe wireless communication with at least two redundant communication paths. Furthermore, thanks to the unique deception-free ASAtechnology from Siemens, the SWING detector is more reliable than a conventional wireless smoke detector. By simply choosing the application-specific ASA parameter set, it can be optimally adapted to the current environmental condition. This makes the wireless fire alarm system the optimal solution for any application, from clean to harsh, and also ensures highest life safety.
Mesh technology – outstanding connection reliability
Mesh technology maximizes the reliability of the wireless network and communication. Since all wireless devices communicate with their neighbors, at least two redundant paths are always available to transmit information. To increase reliability even further, each wireless device has two frequency bands with several channels. In case of a disturbance, the network will mend itself by automatically changing the channel or frequency band or by rerouting the information via another neighboring device. That way, all information will always reach the gateway, making the wireless network as safe as a cabled one. Moreover, mesh technology enables large and powerful wireless networks: An installation with one gateway can have a radius of 60 m – spanning up to five floors. As all wireless devices are interlinked, the gateway does not require a direct connection to each and everyone.
Unique detection reliability with ASAtechnology
The SWING detector offers very fast and highly reliable detection response to smoldering and flaming fires caused by the combustion of liquid and solid matters and thus is more reliable than a conventional smoke detector. The redundant sensor system with two optical and two heat sensors enables highest detection reliability. The unique ASAtechnology (ASA = advanced signal analysis) from Siemens allows you to optimally adapt the detector to the current environmental condition by simply choosing an application-specific ASA parameter set. ASAtechnology interprets and evaluates the signals in real time and dynamically adapts the selected parameter set. This allows the detector to reliably distinguishing between a real fire and deceptive phenomena such as dust, steam or gas. It prevents false alarms and the resulting costly business interruptions. This makes the ASA detector the optimal solution for every application, from clean to harsh.
