ACEND™ Notification Appliances are integral to the Siemens Smart Infrastructure Building System. Unlike traditional alarms, this portfolio is the industry's first audible and visual alarm device series with unique optical patents. The sophisticated lens curve optimizes light direction and intensity, significantly improving the visibility of alarm signals and ensuring ideal compatibility for both wall and ceiling mounting. Further integrated with Siemens' AI charging algorithms, this portfolio is the first in the industry to achieve a current draw below 10mA, offering superior energy efficiency.
ACEND™ Notification Appliances utilize advanced smart technology to facilitate routine maintenance and play a crucial role during emergencies. The portfolio features highly sensitive sensors and intelligent circuits that monitor data in real-time, helping to predict potential issues and facilitate preventive maintenance to ensure optimal status. Iterative upgrades are also enabled by big data analysis. In emergencies, ACEND™ Notification Appliances instantly send urgent notifications to all building occupants via the cloud, ensuring timely awareness of critical situations. The portfolio combines conspicuous strobe lights and smart voice alerts that adapt to different emergency types, providing clear visual and auditory signals that help people evacuate quickly in an organized manner. Additionally, the specially designed 520 Hz low-frequency sound resonates with brainwaves, offering deeper penetration to effectively awaken individuals, even from deep sleep.
ACEND™ Notification Appliances combine a minimalist design with exceptional adaptability. Featuring a modular design, this portfolio offers various interchangeable covers and four different LED lenses, allowing users to tailor their setups to different needs. With customizable appearances and multiple sound options (including horn, speaker, and low-frequency sounder), users can create up to 560 combinations, flexibly adapting to any environment.
Beyond their notable value in life-saving assistance, ACEND™ Notification Appliances are the first audible and visual alarm device series on the market to use environmentally friendly bio-based materials. These materials are derived from plant, animal, and microbial sources rather than petroleum, significantly reducing the consumption of fossil resources. This helps reduce CO₂ emissions by 300 tons per year—equivalent to the carbon absorption of about 13,636 mature trees over the course of a year—highlighting Siemens' significant efforts to promote sustainability.
