In critical infrastructure environments, seconds can be the difference between a contained incident and a major failure. Early fire detection isn’t just important, it’s essential.
If you missed Bandweaver’s recent webinar, “25 Seconds to Safety: Rapid Fire Detection for Critical Infrastructure”, the full recording is now available to watch on demand.
The session explores how FireLaser RapidScan smart alarms build on Bandweaver’s proven Linear Heat Detection (LHD) technology, using intelligent algorithms to deliver faster, more reliable fire detection. Rather than relying on fixed thresholds alone, RapidScan continuously analyses temperature behaviour along every metre of fiber, applying smart logic such as rate-of-rise and deviation analysis to identify genuine fire events earlier and more accurately.
Unlike traditional systems that often raise alarms only once a fire is established, RapidScan’s software-driven approach enables precise, real-time alerts while significantly reducing false alarms. This intelligence allows operators to act sooner, with greater confidence, even in complex or high-interference environments.
The webinar also features the Turin Metro case study, where FireLaser detected a small pan fire in just 25 seconds, a clear demonstration of how smart algorithms and continuous fiber monitoring can prevent escalation in demanding transport environments. Viewers will also see how RapidScan integrates seamlessly with SCADA systems and fire panels to support rapid, automated responses.
This on-demand recording is ideal for fire safety, operations, and asset management professionals across transport, energy, and industrial sectors looking to understand how modern, algorithm-driven fire detection can better protect critical infrastructure.
