Fire extinguisher usage detection and inspection implementation status detection are realized by attaching a power-saving IoT sensor (EnOcean® 920Mhz band and mono-wireless 2.4GHz band) to the fire extinguisher storage box.

The feature of this solution is

(1) Providing a fire extinguisher abnormality alert notification function to facility personnel

With the function to identify and notify abnormal alerts due to opening and closing of the storage box at the location, it is possible to notify the concerned parties of the possibility of fire or mischief to the fire extinguisher at an early stage.

(2) Reduction of maintenance costs by utilizing power-saving IoT devices

EnOcean® is an IoT device that can transmit energy harvesting and mono wireless with extremely low power consumption, and can save labor such as battery replacement and product replacement.

③ Supports management and maintenance inspection work by facility managers and firefighting equipment maintenance and inspection companies.

Aimnext signed a comprehensive cooperation agreement with Takanabe-cho, Koyu-gun, Miyazaki Prefecture in 2019, and built a regional IoT platform in Takanabe-cho. We are developing smart town applications based on the needs of the region. As a comprehensive disaster prevention company, Nippon Dry-Chemical Co., Ltd. designs and constructs various disaster prevention equipment, and manufactures and sells fire extinguishers and fire engines.

In developing this application, Aimnext will be in charge of system and hardware development, and Nippon Dry-Chemical will propose solutions for safety and security in regional disaster prevention as a comprehensive disaster prevention manufacturer, and will also support development costs. We donate storage boxes and fire extinguishers to which IoT sensors are attached to the Takanabe Town Hall.

In January 2022, we started the system demonstration operation of the fire extinguisher use detection and management solution at the Takanabe Town Hall. After that, while expanding the functions, we aim to expand to other facilities in Takanabe Town, and we plan to promote cooperation with voluntary disaster prevention organizations.
