Minerva Technologies supply, install, and service
Electronic Security systems.
A fire detection system is installed to alert occupants to the presence of a fire. Some fires can begin as smouldering fires that produce smoke and gases but don't generate enough heat to activate the sprinklers. Fire detection is needed to provide warning for these situations.
Nurse call systems are used to raise an alarm indicating that a patient is in need of assistance. Push buttons and pull stations are installed at beds, in bathrooms, and more. Patients then activate the system, providing visible and audible indication on which patient is in need. The nurse can attend to the patient and request further help if necessary.
Access Control would be done through the registration and authorization of access cards, tags, pin codes or biometrics at a system reader. The system will then allow entrance or exit permissions based on a system with approved credentials.
ENSURE THAT YOUR FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY, 100% OF THE TIME.

Yes. According to SANS10139:"
In general, it is appropriate to install some form of fire alarm system in virtually all buildings, other than very small premises that are relatively open-planned so that any fire will be quickly detected by occupants, who will be able to warn others by word of mouth or simple mechanical devices such as hand operated bells." (SANS10139, 2012)
Yes. According to SANS10139:
"It is essential that the system is subject to periodic inspection and servicing so that unrevealed faults are identified, preventive measures can be taken to ensure the continued reliability of the system, false alarm problems are identified and suitably addressed, and that the user is made aware of any changes to the building that affect the protection afforded by the system.
Periodic inspection and servicing need to be carried out by a competent person with specialist knowledge of fire detection and alarm systems, including knowledge of the causes of false alarms, sufficient information regarding the system, and adequate access to spares." (SANS10139, 2012)
No. Different categories of system can be quoted on, allowing you to decide on options for legally compliant fire detection systems at manageable prices.
Walk through your premises and look for a fire detection panel (usually installed in a utility cupboard, or around a security desk), smoke detectors (mounted on ceilings), or manual call points (small red manually activated boxes mounted on walls close to external doors).
