Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) & Fire Safety Energy storage is one of the fastest growing parts of modern infrastructure and with it comes new fire safety challenges. That’s why the 2025 NFPA updates are so important: ✅ NFPA 855 calls for stronger fire suppression, ventilation, and signage for BESS installations ✅ NFPA 72 introduces mandatory cybersecurity protections for connected fire alarm systems ✅ NFPA 101 & NFPA 1 shift toward risk based inspection schedules for mission critical facilities At Specialized Fire & Security, we pair code expertise with Siemens innovation to deliver complete protection for Li-Ion BESS: 🔹 FDA241 Aspirating Smoke Detection — an ultra-sensitive system that identifies off-gas early, providing the earliest warning of Li-Ion cell failures 🔹 Siemens NX Nitrogen Suppression — a clean agent solution that safely mitigates Li-Ion BESS fires without collateral damage Our teams in New York, New Jersey, Georgia, and Florida are helping contractors, engineers, and end users stay compliant while protecting critical energy infrastructure. The future of power is here and with Siemens and Specialized Fire, it’s protected. #BESS #NFPA #FireAlarm #Siemens #LifeSafety #SpecializedFire #MissionCritical

🔄 Time to Upgrade? Let’s Talk Legacy Siemens Systems If your building still runs on Siemens MXL panels or H-series initiating devices, you’re not alone and you’re also on borrowed time. These legacy systems, while reliable, are no longer supported by Siemens and can create challenges with replacement parts, code compliance, and serviceability. At Specialized Fire & Security, we help facilities modernize aging infrastructure by migrating to current-generation solutions like Siemens Cerberus PRO. Preserving functionality where possible while improving system performance, reliability, and future readiness. ✅ Code-compliant ✅ Minimally disruptive upgrades ✅ Backed by manufacturer support ✅ Designed for long-term lifecycle value Whether it’s a single panel or a campus-wide retrofit, we can help design a smart path forward. #FireAlarmExperts #SystemUpgrades #SiemensMXL #CerberusPRO #LifeSafetySystems #SpecializedFire #FireAlarmRetrofit #ConstructionProfessionals
