Fire systems training

Apollo gains CPD accreditation for EN54-23 and fire detection training courses

Apollo Fire Detectors, the global supplier of smoke detector alarms, has achieved continuing professional development (CPD) accreditation for two training courses that it offers.

The free training sessions, available to professionals in charge of fire safety in buildings, will be delivered within the firm’s headquarters in Havant, Portsmouth.

The first course, Fire Detection and System Principles – Product Training Course A, is a six-hour session for consultants, specifiers, designers, installers, commissioning engineers and service engineers.

The training covers the principles of fire detectors, including where they can be installed and their maintenance as well as the operation and use of detectors and devices on non-addressable and addressable fire systems.

The second course is the Introduction to EN54-23. The one-hour seminar is aimed at specifiers and integrators and provides information on the EN standard for the use and function of VADs within automatic fire alarm systems. The session overs classes of device, specification formats, appropriate use of VADs and product selection.

Warren Moyle, senior product support engineer at Apollo says: “The fire detection industry is continually evolving, and it’s crucial that the many professionals working within our field stay up-to-date with all of the latest developments and legislation.”

Other CPD-approved courses offered by the company include false alarm reduction in automatic fire detection systems.
