SmokeGo offers complete smoke control made simple

Fire protection solutions manufacturer, Advanced, has introduced SmokeGo, a smoke control panel designed to offer complete and active smoke management through the fire system, without the complexity.

Developed to give specifiers, installers, and end-users a smarter, more intuitive way to achieve smoke control in a range of buildings, it is designed to make smoke control simpler, faster and fully compliant. From dedicated to non-dedicated smoke control systems, SmokeGo makes configuration and operation quicker, clearer and easier. Integrating seamlessly with Advanced’s next-generation MxPro 5 fire panels, SmokeGo allows precise control over smoke fans and dampers, both automatically and manually.

Thanks to Advanced’s four-step configuration process and matrix-based programming, even complex setups can be completed in a fraction of the time traditionally required, replacing complex coding.

Suitable for projects of all sizes, SmokeGo has built-in compatibility for up to 15 fan and damper switch cards per P-Bus and can scale further via the Advanced PENN (peripheral expansion network node module) or additional panels. SmokeGo supports the control of up to six individual fans and dampers per switch card, offering extensive flexibility for manual override and smoke compartment management.

Advanced’s software wizard handles the configuration of inputs and outputs, pre-allocating I/O modules for fan and damper control and automatically applying the necessary feedback delays. Combined with easy cause and effect programming, SmokeGo removes the need for specialist coding, making commissioning more straightforward.

Additional features include cascade mode for managing smoke spread across compartments, post-alarm purge functions and interlocks to ensure dampers are open before fans activate, helping to prevent over-pressurisation of ducts. Automatic testing can also be scheduled. SmokeGo meets the highest industry standards, with approvals to EN54 Parts 2 and 4, and full compliance with ISO 21927-9 and BS 7346-8.

For customers needing tailored solutions, SmokeGo is also available as a custom panel option through Advanced’s AdSpecials www.advancedco.com
