With TITANUS REX®, WAGNER is once again setting new standards in aspirating smoke detection technology: as one of the first aspirating smoke detectors on the market, TITANUS REX® meets the requirements of the 8th Edition of the UL 268 standard, thereby underscoring its performance in terms of early fire detection, immunity to nuisance alarms, and future-proof design.
UL 268 is one of the world’s most important standards for smoke detectors in fire protection. With the latest 8th Edition, the requirements for detection performance, reliability, and the ability to distinguish between actual fires and interference have been further raised. This successful certification confirms once again that TITANUS REX® meets these demanding criteria.
For operators of buildings, data centers, logistics centers, production facilities, or critical infrastructure, one thing is crucial above all else: a very high level of safety combined with minimal business interruptions.
The new certification confirms that TITANUS REX® can reliably distinguish between actual fire incidents and disruptive environmental influences, even under demanding conditions. This results in fewer nuisance alarms, reduced maintenance requirements, and higher system availability.
“The requirements of UL 268, 8th Edition, go well beyond those of earlier standards. For our development team, achieving certification was a challenging process in which we put every detail of the detection technology to the test. The fact that TITANUS REX ® meets these requirements confirms the effectiveness of our development efforts and our commitment to providing technologically leading solutions for early fire detection.”
For installers, planners, and investors, the current certification offers a significant advantage: projects can already be equipped today with technology that meets the latest international requirements.
By meeting the current UL 268, 8th Edition, requirements, TITANUS REX® provides a reliable foundation for planning modern, long-term fire protection concepts. This allows new construction and retrofit projects to be future-proof.
“Our customers expect reliable solutions that stand the test of time. The certification of TITANUS REX ® under UL 268, 8th Edition, gives designers and operators the confidence to rely on technology that meets the highest standards. This simplifies decision-making and builds trust throughout a project’s entire lifecycle.”
With the new UL certification, TITANUS REX® has added another significant milestone to its international certification portfolio.
The system already holds the prestigious VdS certification, which is recognized worldwide as a mark of quality for reliable fire protection solutions.
As a result, TITANUS REX® meets the requirements of some of the most demanding fire protection markets worldwide and offers customers high-level safety and investment protection.
