Didcot railway centre protects steam engines with Kentec fire alarm
Didcot, Oxfordshire
To allow for any of the carriages to be safely decoupled and relocated, a linked conventional twin wire fire alarm system has been installed with a Kentec 4 zone twin wire Sigma CP conventional fire alarm control panel in the 10 berth main carriage that connects to the other four carriages via separate zone connections. The system includes conventional smoke and heat detectors from the Hochiki CDX range as well as a series of specialist IP68 weatherproof connectors positioned on the outside of the carriages.
