PYROVIEW FDS – Early Fire Detection
PYROVIEW FDS – Early Fire Detection System with infrared cameras and software
PYROVIEW FDS – That is the proven full automatic DIAS infrared system for the early fire detection. It is used for the detection of hot spots or smoldering fires when paper, waste and combustible materials in closed bunkers and in open areas is stored. Reliable installations for the detection and control of unwanted fires are required here in particular. By spontaneous combustion of the stored materials or by contamination of hot materials fire can develop that bears a high risk for man and environment. Insurance providers recommend therefor the use of infrared cameras for monitoring.
Advantages and features of the DIAS PYROVIEW FDS Fire Detection System
- Made in Germany: We manufacture and develop our infrared camera PYROVIEW and the reference radiator ourselves at our headquarters in Dresden, Germany.
- Flexible system for the detection of hotspot and area alarms
- Intelligent functions to avoid false alarms
- Self-monitoring of the system functions (fully control of the camera, the pan-tilt head with reference source, the software and cables)
- Localization of the fire source and control of the extinguishing systems for large-area distribution of extinguishing agent
- Automatic, cyclic monitoring of multiple sectors: complete and efficient monitoring of the largest possible area
- Reliable monitoring even in the presence of heavy smoke or dust load
- Fast localization of the source of fire
- We are there for you: We take care of planning, installation, commissioning and maintenance for you. Our customer service is available for you by phone and email and helps with questions.
Typical application areas of PYROVIEW FDS
Waste & Energy Generation
Waste storage facilities, waste-to-energy plants, biomass power plants, biomass storage facilities
Recyclables & Recycling
Recycling centers, scrap yards, electronics recycling, composting facilities, sorting facilities
Hazardous Materials & Critical Indoor Storage Facilities
Indoor storage facilities for critical goods, storage facilities for flammable/highly flammable substances (in warehouses)
Open Areas & Outdoor Storage Facilities
Outdoor storage facilities for critical goods, relevant sections of scrap yards/recycling centers)
Raise an alarm before it starts burning
When exceeding preset temperature threshold values in the Regions Of Interest (ROI) of the current thermal image the corresponding thermal imaging software PYROSOFT FDS signalizes the alarm status and files the appropriate measurement data. In the case of a fire areas with temperature exceedances are marked red. In this way the operator can recognize the fire immediately and start fire fighting measures. Alarms and system states can be displayed on a PC monitor and the operator panel of the system that can be connected directly to the coordination center of the fire brigade. Own water cannons can also be integrated into the system solutions and so they can be aimed to the fire.
Smart software for the early fire detection: PYROSOFT FDS
The use of the software PYROSOFT FDS in combination with the intelligent early fire detection system PYROVIEW FDS makes it possible to react to fires at an early stage and thus prevent injury and property damage. The various causes of fire, such as chemical or organic reactions of substances, require a flexible system to detect an initial ignition (hotspot alarm) and a temperature increase of the entire stored goods (area alarm). By using intelligent evaluation algorithms, false alarms are avoided and high costs for the incorrect alarming of firefighters are prevented.
It is also possible to locate the source of the fire. This information can be provided to a fire suppression system to assist in firefighting efforts. The goal is to distribute the extinguishing agent over a wide area around the source of the fire to cool the surrounding area and thereby contain the spread of the fire.
- Hotspot detection in real-time with up to 32 DIAS thermal imaging cameras
- Intelligent alarm monitoring with spot and trend analysis to avoid false alarms
- Overview of all camera images, views for individual sectors
- Panoramic view, map view with current camera position
- Special display for fire department personnel
- Operating modes: „Automatic“, „Manual“ and „Operator“
- Server-/Client architecture for remote access with PYROSOFT FDS Client
- Offline evaluation, event display and report generation with PYROSOFT FDS Viewer
Easy access via app
PYROSOFT FDS Client is an app for Android and iOS that provides online access to PYROVIEW FDS systems for early fire detection. It is available for download from the Google Play Store and the Apple Store. All devices from Android 6.0 and iOS 10.0 are compatible. Prerequisite for the use of the app is a network connection to the PYROVIEW FDS server. Thus, image data as well as status information can be accessed at any time and commands for remote control can be transmitted. In the event of an error or alarm, a notification is sent by push message or email so that a quick reaction is possible. By looking at relevant information, the situation can be assessed in advance.

Components of the early fire detection system
The basic element of our IR system is at least one PYROVIEW infrared camera in a pan-tilt-head-unit. The camera is housed in a compact, extremely rugged stainless steel pan-tilt enclosure that offers maximum stability and durability under extreme environmental conditions. It is dust- and waterproof, resistant to harsh environments, and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It comes standard with an integrated air purge system and a protective window.
Because there are no moving connection cables, the camera can pan continuously and unrestrictedly in a 360° range to monitor large areas. It can be mounted either upright or suspended.
