Let\u2019s explore the major improvements made over the past 20 years of the UniVario and why it is essential to upgrade your system periodically.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-c8ef60fbc81e0821c8e4bc762910213e\"><strong>Indoor and outdoor environments<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-base-font-size\">Over time, the R&amp;D team has refined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/technologies\/univario\/\"><strong>U<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/technologies\/univario\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>niVario<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s robust design to deliver rapid fire detection with minimal false alarm, even in extremely high temperature. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, Univario operates effectively in clean rooms, harsh conditions, confined spaces and explosion-hazardous areas. The system\u2019s range of applications has expanded, with various models now available to meet the specific requirements of different environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1d0a29391d24812e18c177a8c10a530c\"><strong>New technology \u2013 A modular design<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-base-font-size\">When Viking introduced the first UniVario range in 2006, it was a fire detection system like no other. Today, UniVario is an intelligent, platform-based system equipped with advanced signal processing and highly responsive sensors, offering even greater protection for people and assets in the event of a fire. With new technological upgrades, UniVario can be integrated into fire alarm systems as conventional detectors or with a communication loop module (using the Apollo loop protocol. This communication module transforms UniVario into an Apollo loop device, unlike most other available industrial fire detectors, allowing events to be assigned to a detector and enabling the fire detection and suppression control panel to initiate appropriate measures. This unique feature ensures precise event reporting, directly linking alarms to their respective detectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-adb5604872b04e847195616b057f2120\"><strong>Why upgrading my UniVario, fire detector?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-base-font-size\">While UniVario remains fully functional, Viking experts recommend updating the system every 8 years to ensure optimal performance. This upgrade ensures the system benefits from the latest technology and integrates easily with the fire detection system or control panel in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-625b7c2d29fb17e8a908945bf8512a55\"><strong>Compatibility with other Viking portfolio products<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-base-font-size\">As mentioned above, the UniVario range can be connected to existing fire detection and control panel. Viking experts recommend linking it to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/technologies\/dcp-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clunid DCP-1<\/a><\/strong>, the advanced fire detection and suppression panel, which efficiently manages key monitoring and control functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-base-font-size\">Lastly, the Viking UniVario FLS-1 Ex Flame Simulator completes your fire detection setup. This simulator is designed for reliable testing of IR flame detectors, operating at distances of up to 9 meters. It streamlines commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance, saving time and reducing the risk of costly disruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/UniVarioUpgradeProgram_2025_EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"gallery-swiper\">\n\t<div class=\"swiper-navigation\">\n\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-prev\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"swiper-button-next\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"swiper\">\n\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ.webp\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-69f3f39b31dd6\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ-1024x768.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"UniVario, fire detection system\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ-1024x768.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ-600x450.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.viking-emea.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/11\/12315_Vertical___Aviation__Hangar_-_Close-up_on_UniVario_FMX5000_IR_detec_5iwjqxZ.webp 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"swiper-pagination\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the initial launch of the UniVario, an intelligent, platform-based fire detection system, Viking has continuously enhanced the product with new technology and broader applications, always aiming to better serve their customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":""},"training-product-line":[4710],"news-types":[],"class_list":["post-191459","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","training-product-line-detection-control-pl"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
