This hardware/software package features a user-friendly interface that gives users the ability to graphically capture and display events and conditions throughout a facility.

The Acclimate, a new intelligent fire sensor, is available from System Sensor. Acclimate was developed by incorporating software to automatically adjust to the local environment. As opposed to a fire system operator setting the detector’s operating parameters based on historical data for each location, Acclimate removes that process by automatically learning the environment and optimizing the performance for each location.

The Viking Corporation, a supplier of fire protection devices, announces the release of concealed dry pendent sprinklers. This new line includes both standard response and quick response versions for both standard coverage and extended coverage applications. The push-on, thread-off cover design allows for easy installation after the system has been tested and the ceiling has been finished.

New Pig Corporation introduces the two-piece Spillblocker Dike for diverting and confining liquid without absorbing it. The new design features two 5-foot dikes with built-in keystone connectors. Shorter sections can be used separately for small spills or combined to form a longer 10-foot dike for managing larger spills.

Made of flexible polyurethane, the non-absorbent Spillblocker Dike resists oil, water, and many chemicals. It is reusable and its 3-inch high, two-layer construction features a hard, durable top layer and a soft, tacky bottom to adhere to smooth surfaces.
