LogiFire system strengthens Augean Kirkby site protection
Comelit-PAC has supplied its LogiFire wireless, addressable multi-panel fire alarm system at Augean’s Kirkby site.
The installation was completed by Centurion Fire & Security to ensure the waste management facility achieved full compliance with fire-safety regulations.
Augean required a system offering full site coverage, local and remote monitoring and minimal disruption during installation.
Comelit-PAC said the wireless configuration enabled a faster and less intrusive setup while maintaining reliability and scalability for future expansion.
Wireless installation delivers full compliance
The system was designed to meet the highest category of fire protection under BS 5839-1:2017 (Category L1).
Emma Smith, Site Manager at Augean, said: “Great service from Centurion, the installation guys always worked efficiently and professionally.
“We’re pleased with the Comelit-PAC products installed and would be happy to recommend, especially the wireless aspect that have made a real difference in our fire safety set-up.”
Thermal CCTV cameras were installed across external areas to provide perimeter monitoring and early fire-risk detection.
External manual call points and sounder visual alarm devices (VADs) were positioned to deliver clear alerts in case of emergency.
Integrated control across all systems
According to Comelit-PAC, the fire detection and CCTV systems were integrated into a centralised management platform.
This configuration enables Augean to oversee the system from any location, maintaining full visibility of site safety operations.
George Antemes, Key Account Manager at Centurion Fire & Security, said: “Working on this project was a great opportunity to demonstrate the efficiency and quality of our team.
“By adopting Comelit-PAC’s multi-panel wireless solution, we were able to complete the works quickly and seamlessly, maintaining full operations throughout.
“The system’s flexibility and ease of installation across the site helped us deliver a high-standard, fully compliant fire safety solution with minimal disruption.”
Mandy Bowden, Fire Manager at Comelit-PAC, added: “Waste management sites present demanding fire risks, and achieving L1 compliance was essential for Augean.
“By combining our fire detection system with integrated thermal CCTV monitoring, we’ve delivered a reliable and scalable solution that ensures complete visibility and futureproof protection across the facility.”
Wireless fire detection and CCTV integration in waste facilities
This development is relevant to fire engineering consultants, system installers, electrical contractors and facility managers responsible for high-risk industrial sites.
The LogiFire system’s wireless architecture demonstrates how Category L1 compliance can be achieved without halting operations, a critical factor for continuous-process environments such as waste treatment.
Integration of thermal CCTV within the same control platform provides combined fire detection and perimeter security monitoring, offering operational efficiency and improved response times.
The project highlights how coordinated system design and commissioning between manufacturers and contractors can achieve both compliance and adaptability for future site growth.
