fire detection
Finding flames early
Fire detection is the process or technology of identifying fires in their early stages.
Fire detection systems use sensors—smoke detectors, heat detectors, flame detectors—to alert occupants and trigger suppression equipment.
The building's fire detection system activated automatically.
Early fire detection is critical for preventing loss of life and property damage.
