Bosch equips Mouka factories with Aviotec video-based fire detection solution

To securize Lagos' facilities, Benin and Kaduna, Bosch provided 34 Aviotec fire detection devices, alarms and strobe lights. All connected to a Series addressable fire panel 1200.

The manufacturing company Mouka was founded in 1959 and has evolved to position itself as the leading supplier of branded mattresses in Nigeria. With 800 employees and production facilities in Lagos, Benin and Kaduna, markets foam and polyurethane blocks to retailers and wholesalers, bed linen and quilting.

Due to the highly flammable nature of foam and polyurethane materials, fire safety in manufacturing facilities is a major concern. This is why I needed a solution that was reliable and effective..

To respond to your implement needs Bosch Aviotec, a video-based solution, with VdS certification, that detects smoke and flames at their source, much faster than standard detectors.

The software inside each device analyzes the video images to look for visual patterns associated with fires, as a specific movement, so lame shape or color changes. When connecting to IP-based video management solutions, images provide additional information for alarm verification or fire location.

Bosch provided 34 Aviotec devices for video-based fire detection, Alarms, strobe lights and an external sprinkler system, all connected to a standard addressable fire panel 1200.

With its ability to detect flames and smoke at a very early stage, Bosch's video-based fire detection system is a real asset at mouka's three facilities. Increases the safety of hundreds of employees in factories; shortens alarm response times by minimizing the risk of potential damage to equipment and product inventories; and analyzes the cause when an incident occurs.
