MARKET LEADERS JOIN FORCES TO PROVIDE WORLD FIRST
SF Detection and Tunstall create an exclusive partnership in the telecare technology market, developing a brand new CO alarm.
SF Detection, the UK’s No.1 manufacturer of domestic gas and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms has joined forces with Tunstall, Europe’s leading provider of personal and home reassurance solutions, creating an exclusive partnership in the telecare technology market. The result of this collaboration is the world’s first CO alarm to raise an alert by sending a radio signal to a central Lifeline home unit, without the need for wiring, enabling alarm calls to be received by 24 hour community alarm response centres. This exciting new alarm is based on the standard SF350 CO alarm, the best selling unit in the UK. The alarm is officially approved and kitemarked to the latest European standard for domestic CO alarms, EN50291. It also incorporates the latest electro-chemical sensing technology as well as a number of other market leading features and benefits such as automatic sensor adjustment and a continuous self-test function to ensure complete accuracy and reliability. Adrian Keats, National Account Manager at SF Detection commented, “This new unit is an important step forward in carbon monoxide alarm development and we are very pleased to have joined forces with Tunstall to create it. As major market leaders in our respective fields, it made perfect sense to work together to bring this product to the market.” The new alarm has been designed for use with Tunstall’s Lifeline 400 and 4000+ home units alongside the company’s range of SMART sensors. The Lifeline home units pick up the radio signal from the activated sensor and notifies either the housing scheme warden, nominated key holder, or dedicated 24hour response centre. Tunstall’s Market Solutions Manager Tim Checketts added: “The partnership with SF Detection has been a success and the new CO alarm is testament to that. Both companies have pooled their expertise and individual knowledge to create a unique product which looks set to be a valuable addition to the assistive technology market.” For more information please contact SF Detection, 4 Stinsford Road, Nuffield Industrial Estate, Poole, Dorset BH17 0RZ Tel: 01202 645587 Fax: 01202 665331 email: sales@sfdetection.com, website: www.sfdetection.com For more information about Tunstall please contact Tel: 01977 661234 Email: enquiries@tunstall.co.uk Website: www.tunstallgroup.com
