--- title: "Fire detection" description: "Detect a fire before the flames: towers with CNPP-certified thermal cameras, spotting hot spots from 0 to 550 °C and early smoke, 24/7 across France." url: https://celeosystem.fr/en/fire-detection/ language: en french_version: https://celeosystem.fr/detection-incendie.md last_updated: 2026-10-20 publisher: CELEO (Nîmes, France) --- Fire detection # Fire outbreaks, detected before the flames. The thermal camera that spots an intruder also spots an **abnormal rise in temperature** - a hot spot, the start of combustion - long before a fire breaks out. [Request a quote](https://celeosystem.fr/en/quote/) [Call us](tel:+33449392524) The problem ## A fire often smoulders with no one there to see it. On a deserted site with no human surveillance, a hot spot can smoulder for hours before it ignites. By the time the smoke is visible, it is often too late. Short circuits, plant left powered on, flammable materials, waste: the sources are many, and the consequences total - equipment, structures, site shutdown, and insurance cover that is rarely granted without a prevention system in place. What the camera sees at night. Thermal detection picks up the temperature rise long before this stage. How it works ## Thermal detection, for fire as well as intruders. One technology, two threats covered. Real thermal view: the hottest areas stand out in red, before any flame is visible. 01 ### Monitor the temperature The thermal camera continuously measures the heat signature of your site, 24/7. 02 ### Spot the anomaly An abnormal rise or a hot spot is identified before flames or smoke appear. 03 ### Alert without delay The alert goes straight to you and to the monitoring centre, so action can be taken as early as possible. Live alerts ## From detection to your pocket, in real time. As soon as an intrusion or a fire outbreak is detected, the alert goes out instantly: to your smartphone, by voice call or text message, and to the monitoring station. Every event is qualified, time-stamped and archived as evidence. 1 · On the smartphone app Alarm pushed in real time. Event search. Thermal view: the fire outbreak is located. 2 · By call, text message and monitoring Voice call & text message. Multi-camera monitoring and alarm verification by a centre certified APSAD P5, the highest French certification level recognised by insurers. PC software & remote monitoring.

Made in France. Two threats, one tower ## Intrusion and fire, under the same watch. A CELEO tower does more than deter intruders: it also watches over what the human eye cannot see, namely heat. One single system, two major risks covered. [See intrusion protection](https://celeosystem.fr/en/intrusion-deterrence/) No extra equipment Thermal detection is built into the tower, with no additional sensors to deploy on site. Constant watch Temperature monitoring is continuous, including when the site is deserted. The right alert, at the right time The aim: warn early to limit the damage, before a fire outbreak turns into a blaze. Where the risk is real ## The most exposed sites. Materials and waste depots, logistics warehouses, industrial sites, solar farms, construction sites with plant and fuel: wherever a heat source can get out of control unseen, thermal detection makes the difference between a contained incident and a disaster.
