Fire Detection and Alarm Systems are designed to alert people during an emergency so that they can take action to protect themselves and evacuate the building. It is the most overlooked component of the fire protection system, until a fire occurs. Regardless of the method of detection, Fire Detection and Alarm Systems send out warning tones when triggered, this alerts people that there might be a fire and should evacuate. Some fire detection and alarm systems are also equipped with a remote alarm signaling equipment that automatically alerts the fire brigade through a central monitoring station.

Heat detectors either work on a fixed temperature basis or they can be triggered by the rate of rise change in temperature.
The three basic types of smoke detectors include Ionization, Light Scattering, and Light Obscuring.
These are electronic detectors used to indicate the outbreak of fire by sensing the level of carbon monoxide in the air.
The Multi-sensor detector works by combining inputs from the optical and heat sensors, and processing them using a complex algorithm built into the detector circuitry and control equipment.
This is a device that allows people to raise the alarm by breaking the frangible element on the fascia, triggering the alarm.
