Fire Alarm Bell

What is a Fire Alarm Bell?

A fire alarm bell is an electronic sounder or a bell that serves as a critical component in fire safety systems. The alarm makes a loud, high-pitched sound to notify people that there is a fire in the building. Sounders can be programmed to sound in different tones, while bells make a continuous ringing sound.

Fire alarm bells go by a variety of names—alarm bell, fire bell, sprinkler bell, or gong bell—but they all serve the same essential purpose: alerting building occupants to evacuate immediately in case of fire.

Active Fire Protection Component

Fire alarm bells are active elements of a fire alarm system. This component uses audible stimuli to alert the occupants in the event of an emergency or fire situation. They are the most commonly used alarm for fire evacuation systems.

How Fire Alarm Bells Work

Manual Activation

In the case of a manual call point, the bell is directly attached to it and will start ringing upon the press of the button.

Vibrating Bell: Rings continuously until power is cut off

Automatic Activation

Automatic call points come with sensors within them and they can trigger the alarms in case of an emergency or fire incident.

Single-Stroke Bell: Rings once when powered, requires power cycle to ring again

All kinds of issues can lead to the activation of a fire alarm bell—rising smoke, ambient heat, and even water flow through the fire alarm system—but all bells ring to encourage safe and early evacuation by a building's occupants.

Why Choose a Fire Alarm Bell System For Your Site?

Mandatory Safety Requirement

Due to recent requirements set by governments as well as the local authorities, it is mandatory that a site must be equipped with an adequate fire alarm system and all other integrated safety and security measures.

Having these systems installed and properly working will ensure that your site remains in foolproof protection all the time and you have plenty of time to react and contain any crisis situation.

Emergency Response Procedures

What to Do When You Hear the Fire Alarm Bell

  • Evacuate the building immediately
  • Follow the directions of the Fire Evacuation Plan
  • Notify other occupants to leave the building
  • Do not use any elevators
  • Proceed to designated Assembly Points

When a Continuous Bell is Sounded

  • Evacuate to the outside and find a safe place
  • NEVER go back for personal belongings
  • Move away from the building front for firefighter access
  • Avoid areas underneath upper floor incidents
  • Wait for all-clear signal before re-entering

Remember: Assembly Points where evacuees can wait safely for further instructions shall be designated with a signboard in Blue Color

Common Causes of False Fire Alarms

Burnt food on the stovetop
Cigarette smoke directed toward detectors
Thick steam within a closed room or kitchen
Chemical smells from cleaning products
Old or faulty smoke alarms
Unintended triggering of manual call points
Dust accumulation in detectors
Electrical malfunctions

Important: A common cause of false fire alarm is the unintended triggering of a manual call point, mostly put in insecure areas where it is easy to knock or strike delicate 'break glass' units.
