Konica Minolta’s Video Solution Services (VSS) and powerful MOBOTIX M16 TR (Thermal Radiometry) cameras have been certified by the VdS Fire Protection Institute. The certification recognises the ability to accurately detect a fire, or the increased risk even before it starts, from a distance of up to 5km, making Konica Minolta’s VSS solutions the perfect visual accompaniment to any integrated fire detection and safety solution.
Based in Germany, VdS Schadenverhütung GmbH is Europe's largest and one of the world's most renowned and prestigious institutions for corporate security and safety, specialising in fire protection, security, and natural disaster prevention. The VdS seal of approval enjoys an excellent reputation in professional circles and among decision makers as a mark of excellence.
Gary Fletcher-Moore, Head of Sales – Intelligent Video Solutions at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd commented, “VdS Certification gives an important third-party verification of the considerable abilities and reliability of our VSS and thermal cameras in detecting the early signs of a fire. Whilst many detection systems alert as soon as a fire breaks out, considerable damage and danger to life will already be present. Our powerful thermal detection solution enables emergency teams to investigate a potential problem even before it starts, enabling it to be effectively fought if not prevented entirely.”
