A number of other Hochiki Europe innovations are also being showcased on stand: LEAKalarm, the company’s recently released moisture detection system is one solution making waves in the market. The product helps reduce the risk of costly downtime in organisations which rely heavily on electrical equipment using its extensive network of water detection probes and cables.

At the same time, the technology is designed to be cost effective and suitable for a range of large environments, such as hospitals, schools and retail spaces.
L@titude, an analogue addressable life safety platform which is both easy to operate and install will be demonstrated at the event. Its modular system makes allocating, examining and solving any incidents easy with a combination of graphical images and intelligent system controls.
New to the market, L@ti-view, takes this technology one step further with real time updates and analytics, sending emergency SMS messages and emails to engineers, helping them visualise their projects. The new system will be initially previewed at Hochiki Europe’s stand.
