Igniting the shift in fire safety: Ajax Systems launches EN 54 compliant product line

Fire alarm systems are mission-critical, and reliability is non-negotiable. However, traditional systems are chosen out of habit, not innovation, and often trade simplicity and speed for compliance. They require labor-intensive installation, come with complicated configuration options, and are expensive to scale. For integrators and installation companies, each deployment means routing kilometers of cable and wrestling with outdated control interfaces.

Ajax's Grade 2 and Grade 3 systems have already transformed the intrusion industry. Now, Ajax Systems is redefining fire safety. Meet EN54 Line — the most user-centric and fully wireless fire detection and alarm system for commercial and municipal sites.

Ajax Systems always strives to push the boundaries and is here to transform the outdated and inconvenient industry into a beautiful, tech-savvy domain. EN54 Line is more than a new product line — it's our statement and a real revolution in fire safety. Intuitive, scalable, and future-ready — these are the main pillars of our latest innovation.

For too long, fire safety systems have been built to meet regulations, not expectations. At Ajax Systems, we've reimagined what a fire alarm system can be: intelligent hardware, top-tier and user-friendly software, fast installation, and convenient maintenance. This is fire safety as it should be — not just the product but also a business advantage for our partners.

Designed to make difference

At the core of the system is EN54 Fire Hub Jeweller, a wireless control and indicating equipment (CIE) designed for intuitive, on-site fire alarm system management. Its large 10.1-inch touch screen provides detailed system status and alarm notifications, ensuring staff are immediately aware of any situation.

The CIE features Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and two SIM slots, so there is no need to buy or install communicators — they are already built in. The CIE maintains continuous communication with the monitoring station and Ajax apps while managing up to 200 addressable devices and 40 fire zones.

The CIE can be installed in minutes without enclosure disassembly and is ready to operate right out of the box. The installation kit includes the SmartBracket panel and all the necessary fasteners so an installer can effortlessly mount the device on the wall. For cases when cables are not routed inside the wall, Ajax Systems has designed GlandBox — an accessory for lateral wire entry via cable glands.

Besides fire safety, EN54 Fire Hub Jeweller supports EN 50131 (Grade 2) intrusion protection, automation, and video surveillance. Just about any combination of Ajax devices can be connected to a single space and work together as one integrated system. It makes the CIE an all-in-one solution that is perfectly suited for comprehensive protection of a boutique, hotel, or a historical site.

Wireless coverage that outperforms traditional solutions

As radio communicators are built in, they provide seamless connectivity between the CIE and addressable fire detectors, sounders, VADs, I/O modules, manual call points, and other system devices. The CIE uses the Jeweller communication protocol to transmit real-time device states, alarms, events, and all measured readings to Ajax apps. The Wings and TurboWings protocols are designed to ensure visual verification and large data packets for individual settings, such as interface languages and firmware updates. The wireless range can reach up to 1,800 m.

To enlarge system coverage, especially in large or multi-level buildings, there is EN54 ReX Jeweller. It extends range between the CIE and system devices, supporting communication via both Ajax's proprietary radio protocols (Jeweller, Wings, and TurboWings) and Ethernet. With five range extenders connected to one CIE, the coverage can be boosted to up to 35 km².

Stable performance even in a blackout

Both the CIE and range extender feature power terminals¹ for direct connection to a 110–240 V~, 50/60 Hz mains supply. Devices must also have a backup battery to provide uninterrupted operation during prolonged power outages. To ensure that, EN54 Line includes EN54 Internal Battery with a capacity of 5 or 10 Ah for 24 or 72 hours of autonomous operation, depending on the battery² model. These lithium-ion batteries are hot-swappable, meaning there's no need to shut down the system during replacement.

Next-gen detectors featuring patented technology

The EN54 FireProtect Jeweller detectors reflect Ajax Systems' years of experience in residential fire safety, now evolved for commercial applications. EN54 Line includes addressable smoke and heat detectors, available with or without built-in 85 dB sounders.

The detectors feature a patented smoke chamber with a dual-spectrum optical sensor that uses both blue and infrared LEDs to accurately detect smoke particles. Powered by the HazeFlow 2 algorithm, the smoke sensor delivers exceptional detection speed and accuracy. The heat sensor uses two thermistors to monitor both rapid rises and fixed temperature thresholds and works in several selectable modes.

Life-saving clarity with sounders and VADs

In an emergency, every second counts — and every alert must be seen or heard clearly. The EN54 FireProtect Jeweller sounders and visual alarm devices (VADs) meet this requirement with record speed by activating in under three seconds after an alarm. Each device supports either sound-only, visual-only, or combined alert options, enabling tailored warning strategies across different facility areas.

Sounders deliver audible alerts with a volume of up to 100 dB, with 32 selectable tones to meet local regulations or specific hazard types. VADs use a perimeter-mounted LED frame to produce high-intensity red flashes that are easily visible even in challenging lighting conditions. These devices can be mounted on either ceilings or walls, providing installers with flexibility in meeting coverage requirements with smaller inventory.

The power of integration

EN54 I/O Module (2X2) Jeweller adds a powerful automation layer to the system. The module includes two inputs and two outputs to connect and control third-party devices and automate key actions in fire scenarios. It can activate a voice evacuation system (PAVA/VACIE), switch on evacuation signs, control elevator access, or unlock emergency exits even if the CIE is temporarily offline. Up to 64 automation scenarios are available for one CIE to automate every safety measure. The CIE also works with Ajax smart relays, sockets, outlets, light switches, and shut-off valves to help automate emergency responses.

Visual alarm verification for greater safety

Ajax MotionCam detectors and security cameras can be added to the setup for visual alarm verification. When an alarm is triggered, the system sends a photo or video clip straight to an Ajax app and monitoring station in just a few seconds. This gives the fire officer on site a chance to quickly check whether the threat is real. It also helps prevent panic and unnecessary dispatches if the alarm is false. However, in case of a real emergency, visual verification provides the information needed to guide firefighters to the source of the danger faster.

Simplicity you'll love

Each EN54 Line device can be installed in five minutes. No enclosure disassembly is required, while adding a device to the system takes a mere QR code scan. Device configuration is done via a mobile or desktop Ajax app. There's no need to program complex logic manually — configure the system using human-readable text through an intuitive, self-explanatory interface. With EN54 Line, getting started is as easy as possible.

The EN54 Line devices are built for long-term autonomy, operating on pre-installed batteries.

Each system device provides early low-battery warnings and automatic self-checks, sending state reports to the CIE and Ajax apps. An installer can also get a maintenance report remotely through Ajax PRO Desktop to obtain full information about system health before visiting the site.

For fire detectors, sounders, and VADs, battery swap can be done without tools and enclosure disassembly. Batteries are accessible right under the SmartBracket mounting panel. Simply remove the device from the mount, open the battery covers, replace the batteries, and put everything back in place. SmartBracket has a 90-degree rotation angle, so there is no worry about misalignment: the device can be rotated until it's perfect.

The addressability of each system device makes everything easy by providing real-time status with detailed updates. People in charge are instantly aware of every system event and can ensure ongoing system operation in case of faults. They can immediately contact the site owner and request an on-site maintenance visit — a vital improvement not only in safety but also in operational efficiency.

On top of that, the system supports over-the-air software updates of devices to ensure peak performance and instant access to new features. When the latest firmware is ready to roll out, the fire officer initiates the update with a few taps in Ajax apps, and the system starts the update automatically. The process takes minutes.

That's that: no more complex commissioning, archaic configuration, and time-consuming maintenance.
