Most fires in offices and shops start small, in a wiring fault, a stock room or an unattended appliance, and most of them start when nobody is looking. The Fire Knight Protector watches a room with several sensors at once, confirms a real fire before it acts, discharges a non toxic suppressant and alerts your team by app, SMS and email. It supports the fire safety systems your building already needs.
India’s commercial buildings are planned around the National Building Code of India 2016, Part 4, Fire and Life Safety, which the Directorate General of Fire Services asked every state to adopt. Those provisions matter, but alarms only warn, extinguishers need a person to use them, and sprinklers may not cover every shop unit, cabin or back store. After hours, that gap is widest.
It is also short. UL Fire Safety Research Institute found that rooms with modern synthetic furnishings can reach flashover in roughly three to five minutes, against more than thirty for natural ones. Office chairs, partitions, carpets, packaging and retail stock are mostly synthetic, so acting in those first minutes decides whether a small fire stays small.
From a single shop on a high street to an IT park tower, the same weak points repeat.
Extension boards, loose connections, heaters and chargers left on overnight are among the most common starting points. The fault often sits behind a desk or above a false ceiling, out of sight.
Distribution boards, meter banks and UPS units carry heavy load all day. In many buildings these rooms double as storage, which puts cartons and files right next to the heat.
Retail stock, cardboard, plastic wrapping and display material pack a lot of fuel into a small room that staff may visit only a few times a day.
Network racks and UPS batteries run around the clock in small, closed rooms. A fire here can take down the whole business before it spreads anywhere else.
Offices and shops are empty for more hours than they are occupied. A fire that starts after closing can grow for a long time before a guard or a neighbour notices.
In multi tenant complexes the owner, the society and each tenant look after different things. Individual units and cabins can fall between those responsibilities.
The Protector is an indoor unit for residential and commercial spaces. It combines a flame sensor with rate of rise heat, CO, CO2 and methane sensing, and it needs confirmation from more than one sensor before it activates. A still image is captured immediately before activation, so you can see what happened. It discharges a water based, non toxic, biodegradable suppressant from a 10 or 15 litre tank, covering up to 6 metres by 6 metres per unit. It runs on AC mains with battery backup and sends alerts by app, SMS and email.
Suppression begins at the source while a fire is still small, even when the premises are locked and empty.
Multi sensor confirmation means one stray signal, such as dust or a steam burst, is not enough on its own to trigger a discharge.
Instant alerts and a photograph taken just before activation help owners, facility teams and the fire service respond with facts.
Flame, rate of rise heat, CO, CO2 and methane sensors watch the room continuously. Each one looks for a different sign of fire, from a visible flame to a rapid climb in temperature.
The unit waits for agreement between sensors before it acts. A still image of the room is captured immediately before activation, giving you a record of what the unit saw.
A water based, non toxic, biodegradable suppressant is released over an area of up to 6 metres by 6 metres, cooling and knocking down the fire at its source.
Alerts go out by app, SMS and email to the owner, facility manager or security desk, so someone can check the site and call the fire service straight away.
We are not a traditional fire extinguisher company. We engineer autonomous suppression systems, a fundamentally different category of fire protection technology.
Detection, confirmation, suppression and alerting sit in one unit. It does not wait for a guard, a panel operator or a passer by to act.
Five sensing methods working together give a more reliable picture than a single detector, which matters in busy offices and shops where nuisance triggers cost money and trust.
Water based, non toxic and biodegradable, suited to places where people work, shop and visit every day, and simpler to clean up after a discharge.
Our technology is protected under International Patent Application No. PCT/AU2023/050224, filed across Australia, India, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and Europe.
Engineered to ASME BPVC VIII Div.1, EN 13445, PD 5500, NATA, CE and ISO 9001 standards. Compliance documentation is available for regulatory submissions, insurance purposes and procurement approvals.
A still image captured just before discharge shows what triggered the unit. That record helps with internal reviews, landlord conversations and insurance claims.
Placed room by room where the risk is highest, not spread thinly across a floor.
Dense electrical load, synthetic furniture and long unoccupied hours make cabins and support rooms the weak spots.
Stock, packaging and display lighting pack fuel and heat into a small floor that closes every night.
Common areas are usually well covered, while individual units and service spaces behind them can be less visible.
Cash, records and equipment rooms need protection that works after hours, when branches are locked.
Changing occupants, shared kitchens and personal devices charging everywhere make risk hard to predict.
The rooms that keep a building running are often the least visited, and a fault inside them can grow unseen.
Most commercial buildings need several layers, and your local fire service and fire consultant decide which are required for your building’s height, area and use. Here is what each layer does, and what it depends on.
Smoke and heat detectors linked to a panel warn occupants and staff. In India, selection, installation and maintenance are covered by IS 2189. An alarm saves lives by getting people out, but it does not act on the fire itself.
Heat activated heads connected to piped water, described internationally in the ISO 6182 series. Very effective across whole floors, but they depend on a pump, a water tank, pipework through the ceiling and a fitout that has not blocked the heads.
The indoor unit for cabins, stores, shop floors and back rooms in residential and commercial buildings.
For compact enclosed spaces such as panels, racks and battery cabinets. It protects the inside of an enclosure from a fire that starts there.
Good equipment still depends on simple habits. These are the ones that matter most.
Electrical and meter rooms are not stores. Remove cartons, files and furniture so a fault has nothing close by to spread into.
After any fitout, shelving change or new signage, check that each unit still has a clear view of the room and a clear discharge path.
Confirm mains supply to each unit and test that battery backup holds, especially after electrical work or long power cuts.
When a store manager, facility executive or security agency changes, update who receives app, SMS and email alerts that same week.
Service alarms, sprinklers, hydrants and extinguishers on the schedule set by your fire consultant and the relevant codes. Suppression aids work best alongside them.
Run evacuation drills, show staff where equipment sits and review your fire safety plan whenever your fire NOC comes up for renewal.
Purpose-built fire protection systems for office buildings, retail centers, hospitality, and educational facilities, tailored to protect your property and operations.
No. It is a fire suppression aid that adds automatic, localised suppression in higher risk rooms. Detection, alarm, sprinkler, hydrant and extinguisher provisions required for your building still apply, and you should always call the fire service when a fire occurs.
A fire NOC is issued by the state fire service against the building and its approved fire safety measures, not against a product. Our systems can support your fire safety plan, and we provide compliance documentation, but they do not by themselves secure an approval.
It depends on the number and size of rooms to protect, which product suits each space, tank size, wiring access and any integration with your facility team. We quote after a site assessment so the number of units matches the real risk.
The Protector needs confirmation from more than one sensor before it activates, which reduces the chance of a single stray signal causing a discharge. Placement matters too, so we keep units away from normal heat and steam sources during design.
Tell us about your office, shop or building and we will show you which rooms carry the most risk and where a unit makes a real difference. For factories, godowns and plants, see our industrial fire suppression systems.
