Prevent fire damage through early fire detection of fire and hot spots
Waste fires and scalding fires pose a significant risk to waste handlers and industry. Early detection of fires, smoke and hotspots can reduce damage, production losses and safety risks. With advanced thermography and visual smoke detection, our system provides a solution for fire and scalding detection in your facility.
24/7 monitoring
Visual detection of smoke
Early thermal detection from 65°C
Verification and training using Ai
Avoid image damage, comply with fire insurance rules
Our solution combines thermal imaging with visual smoke detection to detect fire and fume formation as early as possible. This combination of technologies allows early recognition of hotspots and smoke development and timely intervention.
Thermal analysis
Detects hot spots from a surface temperature of 65°C and analyzes the development of the heat source with AI. This filters out false alarms caused by sun reflection or hot exhausts, for example.
Visual smoke detection
An AI-optimized algorithm recognizes smoke development and distinguishes it from dust, exhaust or clouds. This enables detection even before a hot spot is visible.
Automatic calibration
A reference temperature cell (RTC) performs periodic calibration checks to ensure accurate operation.
Why choose our fire detection system?
Our solution combines advanced technologies with smart AI analytics to reliably and effectively detect fire and scalding hazards. In doing so, companies meet the requirements of fire insurers, reduce risk and prevent damage to reputation and infrastructure.
✔ Early detection of hot spots and smoke development ✔ AI analysis prevents false alarms ✔ Suitable for various industries with fire risk
Applications of fire and hot spot detection
Our system can be used in industries where there is a risk of fire and scalding such as:
Waste disposal: Prevent fires by brewing, early detection of overheated batteries and other combustible material.
Recycling: Identify heating at metals and other materials where scalding may occur.
Wood storage and biomass: Detect unwanted temperature rises and smoke development before fire breaks out.
Scrap storage: Smoke detection allows early warning even when the heat source is not visible.
Broth, a hidden danger
Proactive detection system for hot spots and scalding
SmartProtectFire works with a proactive approach that detects dangerous situations at a much earlier stage. This makes fire safety truly proactive instead of reactive. Want to know more about our fire prevention system, which is ideally suited for hot spot and fire detection?
A thermal imaging camera is ideal for monitoring surface temperatures, but at scalding inside waste piles this technique falls short. Because scalding often occurs deep within the material, it remains invisible to thermal systems for a long time. Only when the heat penetrates the mass can something be seen on the surface - often too late, and easily mistaken for innocent solar heating. Our smart visual detection systems recognize just the first signs of smoke development escaping from the waste pile. Using advanced AI software, this smoke is automatically recognized and reported, allowing for early detection of potential hot spots - even before they escalate into surface fires.

Frequently asked questions about Fire and hot spot detection
Fire detection signals smoke, flames or heat when a fire has already started. Thus, the system responds to a fire that is already in progress.
Hotspot detection focuses on the Early detection of localized heat spots (scalding or overheating) that can develop into a fire. This allows you to intervene before a fire actually starts.
Hot spot detection is crucial in high-risk storage or manufacturing processes where scalding can occur, such as waste, bulk goods, batteries or machinery that gets hot. In such cases, it is faster and more reliable than smoke or flame detection alone.
Yes, the system also recognizes subtle temperature increases that indicate scalding or internal heat buildup. But deep down, it may take longer to recognize this. For example, something may be brewing at the bottom of a waste pile for an extended period of time. Our SmartProtect Fire system combines several detection techniques so that scalding is detected quickly.
SmartProtectFire is used in the waste and recycling industry, storage and logistics, energy and batteries, food production and in industries where flammable materials or machinery with high heat loads are present.
Yes, thanks to thermal sensors and AI analysis, the system also works in challenging environments such as outdoor storage, open halls or dusty areas where conventional smoke detectors are less effective. In addition, the system is very strong at recognizing, for example, sun reflections.
Insurers value preventive measures that reduce fire risks. Although conditions vary by insurer, a system like SmartProtectFire can lead to increased underwriting and sometimes even lower premiums.
Yes, SmartProtectFire can be integrated with existing BMIs and alarm systems. As a result, it integrates seamlessly with current security infrastructure.
Detection occurs in real-time. Abnormal heat patterns or smoke are reported immediately, often well before a conventional detector would react.
The system detects earlier, works even in challenging conditions (dust, open air, outdoor storage) and gives fewer false alarms thanks to AI analysis. Thus, it increases safety and reduces the risk of damage and downtime.
