Octiot at the Security and Fire Expo by Informa Markets

Introduction Informa Markets creates platforms for industries and specialist markets to trade, innovate and grow. Through more than 450 international B2B brands, they provide opportunities to engage, experience and do business via live, virtual experiences and Security and Fire expo. We have this opportunity to be exhibiting as exhibiting partner at their Security and Fire expo South India in Chennai. With our advance technology and today’s fast-paced world, security and fire safety have become paramount concerns for homeowners and businesses alike. With advancements in technology, the use of sensors to enhance security measures and fire safety protocols has become increasingly popular.   Sensors in Security Systems Security systems are no longer just about loud alarms or bulky CCTV cameras. Today, they’re smart, interactive, and more efficient, thanks to the integration of sensor technology. Motion Sensors: These are one of the most common types of sensors used in security systems. They detect movement within a specific area, triggering an alarm if any unexpected activity is detected. This could be anything from an intruder breaking into a property to a pet moving around in the house.   Door and Window Sensors: These sensors are designed to monitor the opening and closing of doors and windows. If a door or window is opened while the security system is activated, the sensor sends a signal to the control panel, triggering an alarm. Sensors in Fire Safety When it comes to fire safety, sensors play an equally important role. They provide early detection, which is key to minimizing damage and potentially saving lives. Smoke Detectors: These sensors are designed to detect smoke, a common indicator of a fire. Once smoke is detected, the alarm is triggered, alerting occupants to the danger and allowing them to evacuate or take action. Heat Sensors: Unlike smoke detectors, heat sensors detect a rapid rise in temperature or a heat level that exceeds a predetermined threshold. They are particularly useful in environments where smoke detectors may not be suitable, such as kitchens or garages where smoke or steam is regularly produced. Security and Fire expo In conclusion, sensors play a vital role in modern security and fire safety systems. They provide real-time monitoring and prompt alert mechanisms, significantly enhancing the safety of homes and businesses. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see even more sophisticated sensor-based safety solutions in the future. We are here at the Security and Fire Expo to show you the live demo and what it all can do. Join us and win a chance to experience the magic and benefits of sensors LIVE!

How offices are planning this Christmas to save energy

Technology has been a boon for us, especially during the Christmas season when cold winter winds hits us and all humans are forced to hibernate inside the house. Of course, festive season means family gatherings, year-end office celebrations, long vacations and hence we need to rely more on technology for connection and security purpose. Using such technology and electric devices means that we are consuming more energy and hence depletion of more resources. Taking a break for the holidays-Why not save energy at offices too during this season? As we are next to the year end, we can see offices being closed and employees recouping their energy at homes. So, while we normally think of utilizing our resources to the best capacity  — why not in making sure that we make efficient use of energy at office too? 1. Unplug the unnecessary Switch off the desktops and systems which will not be needed during the vacation period. Encouraging employee’s to properly switch off the computers and electronics before leaving the work station is probably a necessary step. Consider also unplugging larger appliances like printer, scanners or fax machines. Also do not forget the mini café/kitchen in the office where you heat up your food and make coffees. Yes, remember those talks and gossips! Make sure to check that these appliances- coffee machines and microwaves are unplugged. 2. The comfort temperature Office AC’s and heaters are considered the biggest consuming electric system and a big energy eater. To make comfortable environment for employees and increase their efficiency level, temperature plays an important role. When the office Is closed and during long Christmas vacation time, the Office heaters or temperature control device can be closed off in most areas of the office corners as no employee or computer will be working which are the cause of temperature fluctuations More energy is required when heating the whole office up to a comfortable temperature and you can also have by running it low during your office shutdown. 3. Encouraging Energy saving culture  The true nature of any person is seen at the normal behaviors they show at their home. Saving energy at office is a necessary step but to a make it as an acceptable behaviors from the employee, we have to encourage them to apply the same principle at home also. Encouraging employees to save energy at home while on vacation or celebrating Christmas vacations can also shift their perspective on energy saving initiatives. 4.Using motion-sensor lightings With Christmas seasons and winter weather comes darker days. Turning off the lights is typically a great way to save energy, but think about your office’s security, too. Installing motion-sensor lighting to save energy and keep your space secure, during the holidays, and year-round, is what Octiot recommends. At the same time, switch over your lightbulbs to energy-efficient LEDs. Making the change during days when the office is empty will be especially quick. Plus, your staff will come back to a brighter, more attractive office.   One of the UK’s largest accountancy firms will close most of its offices over Christmas and New Year for the first time to save on energy bills. PwC, which employs about 24,000 people, will shut its main London office from 23 December to 3 January, as well as some smaller sites. Its chairman Kevin Ellis said having all offices open over the festive period “doesn’t make sense at a time of energy scarcity”. Such an act by PwC is an encouragement to all other firms! Octiot integrated sensor lightning innovation is thriving in smart product industry due to its capability of Human body detection, energy saving component ,over current protection and strong backup features. We wanted and encourage the company to “do our bit to reduce energy consumption”. Merry Christmas!
