The manufacturing unit aimed to ensure that everyone concerned with the management to all the workers understand the requirements of fire safety in order to ensure optimum safety for all who are present in the building. They aimed to focus on life and property safety. Banco wanted a solution that could match its required standards. They wanted to opt for a future ready addressable system that could pin point the exact location of fire as the manufacturing plant was big. The installation must not involve any changes to the existing building’s architecture.
The consultant for the project was Mr. Mukesh Vasu of Sardar Fire Consultants.
Banco Industry is spread across almost 2 kms comprising of 15 buildings that includes offices, manufacturing units, factory, warehouses, etc., The lengthy wiring was estimated to be 5 times the total cost of the system. Hence, lengthy wiring was not possible. The foundry and all the heavy machinery could raise primary causes of destructible fire. Also, the possible malfunction in wires, debris in heat pump units, leakage or circuitry problems, fires from production materials, explosion, uncontrolled reactions with liquids, tube blockages, chemicals, electrical rooms and office environment can all lead to sparkling fires. Corrosion-induced tube tasks and slurry or polluted liquid flow can result in leakage or erosion. Packaged products in the warehouses and storage including foam/non-foam plastics, plastic pallets, cardboards and explosives can raise very high fire risks. Even in case of power cuts, terror attacks or any other emergencies, quick and planned evacuation is extremely important. Only early evacuation can contribute to life safety and early evacuation comes from early detection. Major design considerations for Banco were safety, technical leverage, highly reliable system that could last longer with low maintenance and installation cost.
Mr. Mukesh Vasu was given this task to find a solution that satisfied Banco’s requirements completely. After analyzing the necessities, he recommended NFire Solution to Banco Industry as the perfect fit. NFire Solution is an ideal solution as it is highly scalable, cost effective and highly reliable.
NFire Solution is a smart integrated incidence management system. It minimizes complexities to increase the speed of communication. NFire Solution was implemented at Banco. NFire provides the campus with localized alert within the premises along with centralized monitoring by NFire Emergency Monitoring Service Centre as per their requirements.
Banco being a large unit, the entire area of the company was divided into 11 sectors where ten N7 panels and one N70 Panel was installed with over 160 hybrid smoke detectors, 70 MCPs (Manual Call Point) and 25 outdoor sirens with battery backup.

NFire connect app makes it easy to access NFire alarm system from anywhere.
NFire has proved to be an ideal solution for Banco Industry. Banco Industry precisely experienced ZERO civil cost for safeguarding their premises and their people. There was no lengthy wiring or masonry work which saved a lot of cost with fast installation. Live monitoring with pin point location of fire through an app is provided to the industry as demanded. The system is cloud integrated, IoT operational and AI enabled with integrated communications. Moreover, Banco was able to achieve higher Returns of Investment (ROI) while experiencing minimal Total Cost of Investment (TCO) with the help of NFire Solution.
