- Abstract
- If a fire protection central station can supply specific information on the location of a fire this aids fire fighting operations considerably in that the appropriate extinguishing technique can be employed. The pulse polling system developed by Siemens provides the possibility of furnishing selective and precise information on the location of a fire, and reduces the false alarm rate.
