Eviction and evacuation alarm

If a fire breaks out, only a few minutes remain to evacuate a building without outside help. Within this time, the fire must be detected, the persons at risk must be alerted and asked to leave the danger zone.

Serinus supports you in identifying the source of the fire and evacuating endangered buildings quickly and in a controlled manner. The Smart Event Communication Platform can be coupled with all main fire alarm systems.

If an alarm is triggered, the evacuation can be initialized manually or automatically by Serinus. The system uses the infrastructure already available to give employees visual and audible evacuation instructions on their smartphones or play announcements by means of IP loudspeakers and central PA systems.

The Serinus solution is a central alerting and crisis management platform that can be connected to all subsystems of the security and building management subsystems as well as the ICT infrastructure. In dangerous situations, the user can understand the dynamics of events, to alert in an optimal and targeted way and to initialize immediate relief measures in order to minimize damages.

Incoming alarms from the fire alarm system are transmitted directly to the Serinus Cloud via ESPA 4.4.4 interface. In case of an emergency, employees receive on their DECT device plain text information for alert recipients. Additional route maps can be provided via the mobile app to ensure rapid response. By means of an automatically started telephone conference, the key players have the chance to directly exchange information about necessary steps.

With Serinus you keep all the people involved always up to date and inform them about any changes regarding the danger situation. You can adapt notifications concerning bomb threats or fire evacuations ad-hoc and edit the group of recipients to be able to take the right decisions at any time. In a few mouse clicks, situation-specific contingency plans can be distributed to the people involved via mobile app, client PC or e-mail.

Depending on the fire protection regulations, the platform allows the transmission of a silent fire alarm to the nursing staff and evacuation assistants. Especially from the point of view of the organization of the evacuation, it is important to note that patients might not always be able to leave the building by themselves in an emergency. Serinus helps you to react quickly and act correctly in this kind of emergencies.

Thanks to Serinus you can reliably alert the responsible persons and authorities via telephone. The solution supports special features such as the transmission of a dynamic display text during calls, the interruption of ongoing calls in case of an alarm, the direct playback of a notification using the loudspeakers and the override of call forwarding rules. A fast mass alerting via XML message is also possible.

All available channels are supported by Serinus for alerting the responsible persons and authorities. These include notifications by telephone, client PC, mobile app, loudspeaker, SMS or e-mail. Within a few seconds, relevant information can be spread across large numbers of people. The alerted persons too can use all communication channels for the confirmation.

With the help of Serinus you can keep track of the feedback sent by the alerted persons. Progress and final reports can be sent automatically to predefined recipients. Thanks to the audit-proof documentation of all processes, danger situations can be easily analyzed and followed up afterwards.

Serinus solution meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0827 standard for emergency and danger response systems. Therefore the alerting platform is ideally suited to warn people affected by the emergency situation and provide them audible instructions. The solution also enables to escalate the alarm to a central control station through different interfaces.
