Founded in Edmonton, Alberta, FireSafe is a software and hardware manufacturing company specializing in early forest fire detection systems. Comprised of both a sales and rental division with proven results and experience. FireSafe has consolidated its expertise and learnings from various clients across Canada, gaining innovation and technical advancement in the mobile security trailer industry. FireSafe hardware and software are manufactured for clients’ custom requirements, or offered as pre-designed, turnkey solutions. We offer mobile trailer solutions, pole mounted cameras for pre-installed infrastructure, and the ability to integrate our software with pre-existing security cameras.
FireSafe has developed 3 current options. 1. Our Pole Mount System allows previously constructed towers to be used as mounting points for FireSafe cameras. 2. A mobile Trailer with a 20’ Mast can be utilized in locations for close detection and thermal imaging requirements. 3. A mobile trailer with a 50’ mast can be used in locations where rapid deployment for long range detection is required.
FireSafe has Incorporated our camera and detection system in a portable mobile trailer. Using a 20’ or 50’ mast. These can be towed behind a pickup truck, deployed in any suitable location, and quickly set up. The set up includes extending the 4 outriggers for stabilization, extending the telescopic mast, sliding out the solar panels and turning the battery disconnect on
Existing infrastructure such as cell/radio towers, buildings, power poles, and other misc. towers can be utilized as a mounting structure. The camera box is fixed 100’ up the tower and is powered by either 120v or solar in another junction box at the base of the tower.
Base model systems have 3-4 days of battery life using a lithium-ion battery bank. The battery system is then paired with a 660 watt solar array that can fully charge the battery bank with 7.5 hours of sunlight. Additional options are available for a second 660 watt standalone solar array, or a methanol charging system. Calculations can confirm client requirements
We are currently running at a 92-98% detection rate within 6km. Rate of detection is reduced as the fire or smoke is further away. Detection rate is dependent on the field of view. We are currently tracking a 2-4 minute time frame from alert to notifying emergency responders.
Our software processes the images gathered by the camera system. Smoke, Flames, and ignitions sources are then classified in a degree of confidence from an A.I processing system. These are then sent as alert notifications through SMS and e-mail to our monitoring center. Our live operators then review live footage and alert first responders as required.
Base model system utilizes 120vAC power already existing on the infrastructure selected, with a 2 day back up battery bank. In locations where power is not available, a pole mounted solar array is available to keep the system energized.
The system has been designed for a 12km radius when a 360° system has been implemented. With 6km range in either direction. A 2-unit system (minimum) is the ideal setup for a total of 12 km linear protection. (Location and field of view can alter this data).
Thermal cameras are strongly recommended when a unit is deployed for hot spot and reignition detection. Long range thermal cameras can be added as an optional accessory for specific client requirements. Our system does not require thermal imaging cameras for fire/smoke detection and are only utilized for specific requirements.
We are currently running at a 92-98% detection rate within 6km. Rate of detection is reduced as the fire or smoke is further away. Detection rate is dependent on the field of view.
All 3 options are currently available. Annual subscriptions are required for purchased units. A long term lease is available with a maintenance package and buy-out options. Rental units are an all-inclusive solution where FireSafe maintains and deploys the unit on the client’s behalf. Rentals can be on a weekly or long-term basis.
Annual software subscriptions are required for the background costs of constantly upgrading software, running servers for processing data and implementing firmware upgrades. This annual cost is constant whether 1 or 20+ units are installed.
Yes! Our software can be integrated on almost all existing security camera systems. Imaging gathered from your cameras can then be processed through our servers for fire and smoke detection
