1 SAFE ALERT ALARM... temperature safe no pyrolyctic phase smouldering fire safe invisible visible heat extinguished fire extinguished by NOFIQ 120 sec.... time T 50 C and/or T > 2 C/min CO > 20 PPM T > 54 C and/or T > 5 C/min CO > 20 PPM/min and (T 50 C and/or T > 2 C/min) The performance demands of NOFIQ as recorded in the BRL-K21014 norm displayed as a temperature-carbon t monoxide/time curve. NOFIQ continuously measures carbon monoxide and temperature levels in the electrical cabinet. As soon as the carbon monoxide increases rapidly and/or if the temperature reaches a critical level, an alert and/or an alarm (extinguishing) will be triggered and redirected to a control panel. Electrical components in switch cabinets, control cupboards and meter boxes are potential fire hazards. NOFIQ provides an innovative high-end solution for these electrical cabinets in business critical processes where damage and downtime must be avoided at all costs. NOFIQ prevents and/or extinguishes fires even before traditional extinguishing systems would be activated. Therefore NOFIQ can be used as an alternative to traditional solutions in electrical cabinets in some areas. By installing NOFIQ, fire damage and production disruption will be limited to an absolute minimum. The five primary functions of NOFIQ can operate without human intervention, so preventing the rapid expansion of the fire.

4 NOFIQ provides a unique and innovative concept for preventing fires in electrical cabinets, guaranteeing continuity in critical and essential processes. NOFIQ adapts to the ever growing demand for niche safety solutions and requirements for professional risk-management. INFRA IndustrY 200 PASSENGERS evacuated after a fire......in the subway, just another headline. Tunnels and stations are traffic-junctions exposed to grave risks. As are telecom-connections, which in case of a catastrophe would have to maintain crucial communications. Innumerable electrical cabinets are at the heart of technical installations that day in day out insure endless streams of traffic and telecommunications. The consequences of a fire would be disastrous and extremely costly. 270 CUSTOMERS waiting too long for their delivery......could easily be a consequence of a factory fire. A lot of fires hit this sector every year. Most of which are a direct result of human error, or faulty or poorly maintained switch- and control boards. Production comes to a halt and customers turn their backs. This has an enormous impact on a company and all too often leads to bankruptcy. GOVERNMENT 430 STUDENTS miss class for two weeks......might be another news topic. Every year government buildings such as schools, prisons, museums and offices suffer from serious fires. Damages to or even loss of buildings, material, valuable art and reputation are the consequences. Electrical cabinets in these buildings are often the source of these disastrous fires. NOFIQ limits the risks to these electrical cabinets. CARE 320 PATIENTS back on the waitinglist......could be the aftermath of a hospital fire. Damages as a result of fires in hospitals have increased a great deal in recent years and unfortunately casualties have occurred as well. Complete evacuation,, soot and water damages to building, medical equipment and sterile materials lead to ranking and reputation loss and insurance claims. Electrical cabinets are an essential part of hospitals functions. retail MILLIONS in revenue loss after meter box fire is a short but significant heading you might have read on the internet. Reports about a fire in a store on a busy high street or in a shopping centre, starting in a meter box and closing down the store and its neighboring stores, increasingly often make the news. Meter box fires can easily lead to extensive loss of revenue or even permanent closure.

5 Unique characteristics certified high-end solution, compatible with all detection or building management-systems highly sensitive detection and extinguishing-system in one device round-the-clock (24/7) monitoring extremely compact entire unit inside the cabinet low investment-threshold low installation-costs (plug & play and wireless) low maintenance-costs guaranteed extinguishing limited damage and losses detects alerts communicates extinguishes controls standalone configuration network configuration

6 NOFIQ can be used as a standalone or network application. The standalone solution can be integrated in an existing fire detection or building management system. Units can also be connected by wireless to the NOFIQ control panel if multiple cabinets must be equipped and/or if there is no existing security system. Stand alone Network Communication of all status-reports of direct (standalone) or through the NOFIQ controle panel (own network) can be linked to existing fire-alarm system intruder alarm system building-management system Process Operating System Machine PLC GSM/SMS module Private Alarm Centre. NOFIQ HUBs insure signal-amplifying when connecting wireless to the NOFIQ control centre. An industrial casing is available for industrial application. Continuous monitoring of the electrical cabinet where every alert, alarm or interference is reported. As stand-alone or in a network, a maximum of four NOFIQ FE units can be connected and function as one system.
