MOBS consists of a combination of radio smoke detectors (FRMs) and a detector receiver (either an optical-acoustic receiver or a portable receiver). The FRMs can be fitted with a multitude of different fire detectors.
Not only do they comply with the standard, but they are highly efficient in avoiding false alarms. When the detectors detect a fire, they send an alarm message to the detector receiver via radio.
It may also be necessary to inform the Fire Brigade or security firm immediately, as well as anyone present on-site. There are several different ways to retransmit alarms:
- switch contacts for connecting to an existing fire alarm system
- with an automatic dialler and voice announcement to a telephone subscriber
- to an emergency call service control centre, using an automatic dialler and the VdS 2465-S2 protocol
- with (analogue or digital) professional mobile radio and voice announcement or text message to a patrol
- by displaying it on the new browser-based MyMOBS.de platform.
Note: We do not recommend alarm retransmission via SMS because the delivery time is not guaranteed.
