CAM-FIRE Fire Resistant Rotary Switches (16A – 200A)
In today’s high-risk environments, fire safety and operational continuity are not optional—they are essential. When a fire breaks out, every second counts. Ventilation, smoke extraction, and critical safety systems must continue operating under the harshest conditions to protect lives and property. Ordinary electrical components fail quickly in extreme heat, jeopardizing emergency responses.fire switches
To overcome this challenge, the CAM-FIRE series of fire-resistant rotary isolator switches has been engineered. Designed for continuous operation at 400°C for up to 120 minutes, these switches meet the rigorous requirements of EN 12101-3, ensuring unmatched performance in life-safety systems.
With their rugged aluminum alloy construction, wide current range from 16A to 200A, and certified fire resistance, CAM-FIRE switches represent a new benchmark in reliability, safety, and compliance.
As a trusted supplier of advanced fire-safety and explosion-proof solutions in the UAE, Sensor Control LLC proudly offers CAM-FIRE switches to industries and facilities where safety cannot be compromised.
Engineered for Mission-Critical Performance
CAM-FIRE switches are purpose-built to provide isolation and control in fire-safety systems. Their ability to continue functioning during fire incidents ensures that ventilation fans and smoke extraction systems remain operational, helping to manage smoke spread, protect escape routes, and enable safe evacuation.
Key technical strengths include:
- Current Range: 16A to 200A, suitable for small systems and large industrial applications.
- Certified Fire Resistance: Guaranteed stability at 400°C for 120 minutes, tested to EN 12101-3.
- Robust Housing: Constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, built to last in harsh environments.
- Reliable Isolation: Provides precise control, enabling safe disconnection while ensuring operational continuity.
- Long-Term Durability: Designed to withstand not only fire but also demanding day-to-day operating conditions.
Application Areas
The CAM-FIRE series is trusted in public, industrial, and commercial facilities where fire-safety compliance is non-negotiable:
- Shopping Centres & Malls – Ensuring smoke control systems function during evacuation.
- Warehouses & Logistics Hubs – Safeguarding large storage facilities where fire loads are high.
- Underground Car Parks – Supporting exhaust fans to keep visibility and air quality safe.
- Road & Rail Tunnels – Maintaining ventilation in enclosed spaces during emergencies.
- Airports & Transit Hubs – Protecting large public spaces with continuous ventilation control.
- Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities – Securing essential systems in mission-critical environments.
- Theatres, Auditoriums & Schools – Supporting evacuation safety in high-occupancy venues.
- High-Rise & Commercial Buildings – Delivering compliant fire-safety for modern urban infrastructure.
Wherever life safety and regulatory compliance are priorities, CAM-FIRE switches provide the assurance that essential systems will not fail under fire stress.
