TAKTIS UPGRADES CARE HOME FIRE SAFETY
» » TAKTIS FIRE, KENTEC’S HIGHLY
acclaimed fire alarm control panel, is
proving to be a real success at two of
Cumbria’s leading care homes, central
to fire safety systems designed to protect
vulnerable residents, members of staff and
visitors.
The unique risks posed by safety critical
locations like care homes demand fire
safety systems of the highest pedigree,
performance and reliability, which is why
leading specialists JJ Group (Contracting)
Ltd. opted for an open protocol system
built around the sophisticated features of
the new Taktis Technology Platform.
The existing fire safety system at
Elmhurst Care Home, Ulverston has been
upgraded with a Taktis 2 loop fire control
panel while at Brampton’s Moot Lodge, a
care home for older people operated by
Cumbria Care, the existing conventional
fire safety system has been replaced with
a new addressable system, comprising a
Taktis 2 loop fire control panel with Apollo
addressable
loop
powered devices.

Talking about both installations,
Karl Danz of Carlisle based electrical
contractors JJ Group (Contracting) Ltd.
says that “Kentec’s Taktis is the ideal
replacement panel for updating care
home fire systems such as these. It not
only has a huge internal battery capacity,
but its multi-protocol facility allows both
Apollo and Hochiki addressable devices to
work on one fire control panel.”
TAKTIS
Kentec’s Taktis fire detection and
alarm system combines the very latest
in hardware and software to produce
a control and indication system that is
both powerful and sophisticated, yet

loop or 2-16 loop versions and certified

for installation in larger buildings. Its
capacity to be networked up to 128
