The opportunity
A modern fire alarm, without starting with cable routes.
A finished hotel corridor, a busy office or a building with sensitive interiors can make new fire alarm cabling a significant part of the project. Ajax EN54 offers a wireless alternative: a dedicated fire control platform with compatible detectors, call points and warning devices.
For the customer, the appeal is practical. Less field cabling can mean less disturbance to the building, while a clear touchscreen and connected management tools help authorised people understand the system. Digilec assesses, installs and maintains these solutions around the site’s actual requirements.
The dedicated EN54 rangeFire protection starts

with the right equipment.
The EN54 Fire Hub is the control and indicating equipment at the centre of the system. The EN54 range includes smoke and heat detection, sounders, visual alarm devices and interface options, with suitable manual call points forming part of the selected installation.
EN 54 certification relates to the relevant product requirements. A compliant installation also depends on design, device selection, coverage, commissioning and maintenance. It is not achieved simply by choosing a product with EN54 in its name.
Ajax’s EN54 line should not be confused with adding domestic fire detectors to an ordinary intruder alarm hub. We select the dedicated equipment and compatible devices for the intended fire alarm design.

FIRE
EN54 fire alarm
Dedicated detection, warnings and local control, with fire events and status visible to authorised users.
INTRUSION
Compatible alarm devices
The Fire Hub supports EN 50131 Grade 2 intrusion configurations. Equipment and the complete design must suit the risk.
VIDEO
Ajax cameras & recording
Supported camera and NVR integration gives authorised users visual context alongside system events.
A facilities manager can have a more convenient view of events across compatible fire, intrusion and video equipment. Permissions, notifications and the selected monitoring arrangements should be designed around who needs to act.
Video can help authorised staff understand a situation, but it must not become a reason to delay the fire procedure or wait for a camera check before responding. App access is also distinct from professional alarm monitoring; any monitoring and response arrangements are agreed separately.

Designed around real buildings.
Hospitality & sensitive interiors
Hotels, restaurants and character buildings may have finishes or operational constraints that make wireless detection particularly worth considering.
Shared & larger residential property
Where a panel-based system is specified, wireless equipment may suit the project. The required grade, coverage and evacuation arrangements must be established first.
Grade A & Category LD2
Two parts of the specification.
Grade A describes a panel-based fire alarm arrangement with appropriate detection, alarm devices, control equipment and standby power. Category LD2 describes coverage of escape routes and specified higher-risk areas in a domestic-premises design.
These terms are relevant to certain large homes and multi-occupancy projects, but they are not a universal prescription for every HMO or block of flats. Individual dwellings and shared areas can have different requirements. We work from the agreed fire strategy, risk assessment and relevant BS 5839-6 requirements, rather than applying a standard package to every property.
Installation & ongoing care
Plan it well. Keep it supported.
Radio coverage, device positions, warning performance, power arrangements and any interfaces all need to be considered. The hub requires a suitable power supply, and some interfaces may need wiring. We check product compatibility and available features for the proposed configuration.
Once installed, the system needs a clear handover and a planned maintenance programme. Supported remote diagnostics can help with investigation, but they do not replace physical inspection and functional testing.
