False Alarms - Be-gone! - A guide to understanding false alarms

Seminar • Honeywell Gent

About the CPD course

This presentation is a guide to understanding how and why false alarms occur and what we can do to reduce them. We describe common everyday problems and provide solutions to reduce and/or potentially avoid future false alarms. Whilst it may be impossible to eliminate them completely, we investigate available systems and technologies along with good management and maintenance of systems to reduce them to a manageable level.
