The Ultimate Fire & Smoke Detection & Early Warning Systems

The new FireTrak 4000 Smoke Detection System from Kenelec Scientific is the ultimate outdoor air monitoring station for the detection of smoke and fire. As used by the EPA in Australia and with this technology used for smoke detection worldwide, the FireTrak can save lives and property in the event of bush fires or other unforeseen events.

These compact state-of-the-art stations can be easily positioned in the environment in areas of concern for constant real-time monitoring and reporting back to one or more locations. The data can even be accessible via web browser and the internet so the general public can monitor levels and react swiftly. Each station provides highly accurate real-time data on:

 

What can I use FireTrak for?
• Monitor bushfires, their dynamics & health effects
• Improve back burning procedures & fire containment
• Industrial, mining, chemical, related smoke exposure   
• Smoke research and volcanic activity
• Forestry burning and clearing
• Anywhere smoke or fire is an issue

Better Back Burning
With real-time data available anywhere, anytime, even on your
pocket PC in the field, back burning plans can be made more
easily and reliably. Instantly and precisely track where the smoke
is going, at what speed and in what concentration. This valuable
data can help you better control back burning, enable you to warn
residents and even identify potential smoke health risks.

Super Sensitive Detection
Capable of detecting changes in smoke and aerosol
concentrations as low as 1ug/m3 the FireTrak is miles
ahead of any other smoke detection system and is
capable of detecting smoke long before the human
nose can.

 Detection While Your Sleeping
It’s not always possible to see a fire at night and it can
be even harder to see smoke until it’s too late. FireTrak
never sleeps or stops monitoring, it works around the
clock collecting and reporting live data back to a
computer or central control station.

Portable or Fixed Solutions
For maximum flexibility, FireTrak is available as  
both a fixed station and a tripod based transportable
station. This means in the event of a fire, stations can
be quickly deployed into the field and moved around
as needed, monitoring fire and smoke movement and
smoke concentrations and the potential health risks
to fire fighters, volunteers and the general public.

 Smoke & Health Effects
While smoke can kill in high enough concentrations,
even low concentrations can have a serious impact
of human health. Smoke is typically ultra-fine particles
and the EPA, world health authorities and the scientific
community are well aware of the impact of ultrafine
particles on human health. FireTrak can help you monitor
these potentially deadly ultra-fines at all times.

Modelling & Evacuation Planning
Use your FireTrak to do advanced modelling, make better
decisions and properly plan evacuations based on real-time
threat level data.  Improve communication to the public and
potentially give them access to live real-time internet based
data, saving time, money and lives. With FireTrak you can
monitor both fire and smoke with extreme sensitivity 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week.

 Communications & Reporting
The feature packed FireTrak is capable of sending SMS
messages on alarms, communicating via the mobile 3G
network, via satellite, RF radio, live to the internet and by
various other means. So no matter what the event, FireTrak
keeps getting the vital data through.  It also monitors itself
and surrounding conditions and constantly reports the data
back to base.
