D-Tec has supplied Oman’s royal hangar at Seeb International Airport with a VSD (Video Smoke Detection) system comprising 16 low light CCD cameras.
The airport was planning to install flame and linear heat cables in the 210-m by 110-m by 27-m-high hangar until it learned of VSD’s accuracy and fast response, says a spokesman.
Built to house Airbus A380 and Boeing 747s, the hangar has been specially designed to have no internal support columns. VSD was judged to be the best choice following a presentation made by the company. In 20 tests it detected smoke that appeared above the planes’ wings within 90 seconds, proving that it does not wait for smoke to rise to the roof, as is the case with most smoke recognition and heat detection systems.
