Computacenter HQ, Hatfield

UK & Ireland

A network of fault-tolerant MxPro 5 fire panels from Advanced, have been installed at the UK headquarters of FTSE 250-listed retailer, Computacenter. As a leading independent provider of IT infrastructure services, having robust fire protection measures in place at Computacenter’s UK logistics and distribution centre is crucial to ensuring smooth operations.

As part of a fire system upgrade and move towards a more open-style protocol, Advanced was selected as the preferred solution at Hertfordshire-based Computacenter’s headquarters which, at over 220,000 square feet, are some of Europe’s largest and most sophisticated purpose-built warehousing and operations facilities.

A single 8-loop, one 5-loop and two 1-loop MxPro 5 panels form the core of the site’s active fire protection. The new Advanced panels were integrated with several third-party systems in the warehouse and operations building, including auto conveyors, sprinklers, gas suppression, aspirator systems and fire doors and shutters.

MxPro 5 is an unbeatable multiprotocol fire system. Approved to EN54-2, 4 & 13, it offers four protocols, Apollo, Argus, Hochiki and Nittan and a completely open installer network that benefits from free training and technical support. Panels can be used in single-loop, single-panel format or easily configured into high-speed, 200-panel networks covering huge areas. MxPro 5 panels are backwardly compatible with existing MxPro 4 networks and include a host of features, including AlarmCalm for complete false alarm management and reduction.
