Johnson Controls Offers Open-Protocol FireClass Fire Detection Technology

Johnson Controls, the pioneer for smart, healthy, and sustainable buildings, offers an alternative approach to fire detection through its FireClass range, a class of open-protocol fire detection products, and is seen as a step away from its previously perceived perception in the market of only offering managed or closed-protocol systems.

FireClass consists of a comprehensive range of industry-approved products for use in commercial, residential, corporate, retail, leisure, care home, manufacturing, and warehouse environments to make spaces safer and more secure in the event of a fire.   

Digital fire detection technology

Johnson Controls FireClass is the culmination of digital fire detection technology built on over 50 years of dedication and performance.

It uses the latest fire detection technology and is packaged in an easy-to-install, out-of-the-box, and digitally open-protocol solution with ISO 9001-2000 quality registrations and major international performance standards and approvals.

“Opening up our fire detection portfolio by offering open protocol with FireClass solidifies our commitment to providing a flexible approach to safety in the places and spaces that surround us,” said Adam Norris, Head of Product Management at Johnson Controls.

He adds, "We pride ourselves on having an acute understanding of fire safety and protection and these product innovations are based on our knowledge of customer needs to make our places safer and more secure."

Smart, effective, and efficient 

Adam Norris continues, “Our mission is to advance safety by finding smarter ways to save lives, improve businesses and protect where people live and work. Individually, each product represents the highest levels of research, development, and proven performance, but together, they add up to a most encompassing source of protection a customer will find.”  

The FireClass product range was specifically designed to provide the most effective and efficient system for the environment and for those responsible for installing and maintaining the system. Open protocol for fire detection is the open choice for the future.
