Quick fire detection
Temporary fire detection makes it possible to prevent and respond quickly to the outbreak of a fire on a worksite or during a temporary event, in order to protect people and property. It is also used when the fire detection system is faulty or non-existent.
Work, a fault in your system, a temporary event?
Consider the early fire detection!
A construction site fire every three days
Every construction site or temporary event involves fire risks. There are many sources of fire: hot spots, electricity, flammable products, bad behavior or human negligence, etc.
However, in each of these situations, the traditional fire safety system (FSS) does not ensure the safety of property and people. It is, in fact, either non-existent (new building, faulty equipment, temporary event) or disconnected (construction site) because dust related to the work can interfere with the proper functioning of the detectors.
1 building site fires every three days in the Paris region (according to the Fédération Française du Bâtiment).
30 % of fire starts are caused by hot-spot work (according to INRS)
Protect Yourself Against Irreversible Losses
There is no specific obligation regarding fire safety on construction sites, except for the requirement of a fire permit in the case of “hot work.”
However, a fire can have significant material and economic consequences for businesses affected: 70% of companies that have experienced a disaster are forced to cease their activity within two years (according to INRS). Hence, the importance of taking preventive measures, including the implementation of temporary fire detection equipment.
When should temporary fire detection be used?
Temporary fire detection ensures the protection of premises, professional equipment, irreplaceable goods (works of art) and people. It can be used:
- During works (construction or renovation),
- During a temporary event (festival, sports competition, prefabricated construction),
- As a compensatory measure: when an SSI is broken and cannot be repaired immediately.

A fire station
Mobile thanks to its wheels, it is dustproof and connected via 4G or Wi-Fi. It sends an alert via SMS, email, or smartphone when it receives a fire detection signal from one of the smoke detectors. It then triggers the alarm and the procedure for the rapid extinguishing of the fire.
Smoke detectors
These are typically installed on telescopic poles that can reach up to 10 meters and are equipped with wheels. They can be easily and quickly moved depending on the progress of the construction site.
Radio transmitters
Placed around the area to be monitored, they allow the detectors to communicate with the control panel wirelessly, via radio.
The 3 steps to installing temporary detection
This temporary security system has the advantage of providing rapid, mobile and scalable security, with no impact on the smooth running of the works.
-
Project study and solution proposal
Analysis of requirements according to the context of each project, assessment of hazards according to the trades involved and potential sources of ignition, sizing of the system.
-
Installation and commissioning
The more work progresses, the greater the risk of fire. The temporary fire detection system can be installed at the start or in the middle of a worksite.
-
Equipment maintenance
Monitoring of equipment to prevent clogging of detectors caused by work dust. Replacement of equipment if necessary to ensure detection performance throughout the project.
