Fire System Integration
Epic gateways, modules and the Aryo Cloud platform turn traditional fire systems into connected, service ready products that create new value for manufacturers, integrators and end users.
Epic devices and the Aryo Cloud platform bring every part of the fire protection network into a single connected system. Fire alarm panels, fire pumps, fire engines and fire sprinkler systems can all be connected through Epic gateways and modules, capturing alarms, troubles, supervisory events, test results and performance data in real time. Instead of each device operating in isolation, the entire fire system becomes visible and manageable from one secure cloud platform.
By integrating these systems with Aryo Cloud, manufacturers, integrators and service teams gain continuous insight into system health, test history and readiness. Remote diagnostics, automated reports and certified monitoring workflows help support NFPA and UL or ULC requirements while reducing unnecessary site visits and service costs. This connected approach turns traditional fire equipment into intelligent, service ready solutions that deliver better global visibility and mapping, protection, stronger compliance and new value for every stakeholder.
Epic industrial gateways and modules sit between the fire system and the cloud to capture, translate and transmit critical data in real time. They can be integrated in several ways:
Direct connection to fire alarm control panels and annunciators
Integration with fire pumps and controllers
Integration with diesel and electric fire engines
Bridging complete fire systems into one view
For manufacturers of fire alarm panels, fire pumps, controllers, engines and related equipment, Epic offers a ready made path to connected products without rebuilding hardware and software from the ground up.
Manufacturers can embed or bundle Epic gateways and modules with their existing equipment and connect directly to Aryo Cloud. This reduces internal development time and cost compared to creating an entire cloud and communication stack in house.
Epic focuses on UL, ULC and NFPA related requirements so manufacturers can align with the certifications needed for fire and life safety applications. Using an established, certified communication and cloud platform simplifies approvals and builds confidence with authorities having jurisdiction and third party testing bodies.
Connected fire systems create ongoing service opportunities. Manufacturers and their partners can offer monitoring, preventative maintenance, analytics and remote diagnostic programs on a subscription basis, turning one time equipment sales into long term revenue streams.
By leveraging Epic gateways and Aryo Cloud, manufacturers can give dealers and service teams deep remote visibility into their equipment. Many issues can be diagnosed or resolved without a site visit, lowering support costs and improving response times for end users.
Continuous monitoring of events, runtimes, pressures, temperatures, starts, test cycles and alarms allows manufacturers to identify patterns that indicate wear or risk. This supports preventative and predictive maintenance programs that improve reliability and reduce unplanned downtime for critical fire systems.
Manufacturers can position their panels, pumps and engines as fully connected, cloud ready solutions backed by an industrial IoT platform. This differentiates their offerings from traditional stand alone equipment and strengthens bids in competitive projects.
Aryo Cloud and the connected device experience can be branded for the manufacturer, creating a seamless experience under their own name. This allows manufacturers to present a complete hardware and cloud solution without needing to build a full platform.
Aggregated field data from installed equipment gives manufacturers a clear picture of how products behave over time and in different environments. These insights can inform design improvements, future product lines and more accurate sizing and application guidance.
Epic gateways, modules and Aryo Cloud are designed to complement existing manufacturer strengths rather than replace them
- The manufacturer continues to design and build the fire equipment
- Epic provides the management tool, connectivity, monitoring, protocol integration and secure cloud platform
- Together they deliver certified, connected, service ready fire solutions to the market
This partnership approach lets fire system manufacturers focus on what they do best while still offering a modern connected experience that building owners, service companies and regulators increasingly expect.
