We’re delighted to announce that following our terrifying 100m abseil down the Spinnaker Tower on Saturday, we’ve now raised over £13,000 for the Portsmouth Hospitals Charity!
First, we had the Eurotech Team 15,000 feet Skydive in 2022, followed by James Aherne’s Manchester Marathon in 2023. Now, following the 100m Spinnaker Tower abseil the total raised to date hit an amazing £13,255 including gift aid. A huge thank you to everyone who has helped us reach this incredible amount.
Portsmouth Hospitals Charity is a charity particularly close to the hearts of Michelle, Vincent, and Caron Agius and money raised is in memory of their amazing parents Vince and Barbara Agius.
Michelle says: “During 2020 and 2021 Caron, Vincent and I sadly lost our wonderful parents Barbara and Vince Agius. Eurotech Fire Systems Ltd’s chosen charity is the Portsmouth Hospitals Charity in memory of our wonderful parents. The QA Hospital did a fantastic job of looking after and caring for them.”
Portsmouth Hospitals Charity supports the work of Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust to help enhance patient care and support staff welfare, and funds a range of projects including improvement to existing facilities, the purchase of new and state-of-the-art equipment, staff training, and helps foster research and innovation.

We’re were delighted to be support Fire Industry Association Cyprus at their Product Focus Day in Nicosia on 22nd May.
Held at the Cyprus Employers & Industrialists Federation (OEB), the day offered an informative morning of fire safety product insight and innovations.
Our MD Michelle Agius presented on Eurotech’s unique service provision as well as our comprehensive product range and complete fire system solutions.
Following on from our skydive in 2022 and James’ marathon in 2023, we’re now doing a thrilling 100m abseil! Our brave team members will descend 100 metres from one of the UK’s most iconic landmarks, surrounded by spectacular views of Portsmouth Harbour and the Solent. This exhilarating challenge is not only about conquering heights but also about raising vital funds for a great cause.
Portsmouth Hospitals Charity is a charity particularly close to the hearts of Michelle, Vincent, and Caron Agius and this event is in memory of their amazing parents Vince and Barbara Agius.
Michelle says: “During 2020 and 2021 Caron, Vincent and I sadly lost our wonderful parents Barbara and Vince Agius. Eurotech Fire Systems Ltd’s chosen charity is the Portsmouth Hospitals Charity in memory of our wonderful parents. The QA Hospital did a fantastic job of looking after and caring for them. Having the opportunity to do this abseil in their memory not only keeps their memory alive with so many people but also allows us to continue to raise money for the QA Hospital – in particular the two wards who cared for our mum and dad. I know that my mum and dad and nan to Danny, Sylvia, Natasha, Jack, Robert, Vincent and Nicholas will be looking down on us, supporting and worrying about us – nothing changes.”
The event will take place on 3rd August! Please support us in any way you can – all donations no matter how small are appreciated, or if you’re local to Portsmouth come and cheer us on!

We are pleased to share with you a significant advancement in our Sygno-fi by Eurotech wireless platform as part of our commitment to continuous product improvement.
In our ongoing efforts to enhance product performance, we have evolved the design of the Sygno-fi detectors’ series. This update specifically addresses the balance between smoke detection capabilities and the prevention of spurious body access, such as dust and insects, within the optical chamber.
The modification includes a refined insect screen, as illustrated in the before-and-after images below:
In conjunction with the plastic part modification mentioned above, we have introduced a new Emitter LED that produces an exceptionally focused emitter beam. The cross-section snapshot of the old and new chambers is provided below:
This improvement not only maintains sensitivity to airborne particulates, such as smoke, but also enhances resilience against spurious bodies like settled dust and small fibres adhering to the chamber walls.
We are pleased to confirm that this enhancement has undergone extensive testing and has been approved according to EN54 standards. Relevant CPR certificates will be amended on the same CPR numbers.
The affected product codes are as follows:
These improvements are already in production across our Sygno-fi detector range.
If you have any questions about our Sygno-fi by Eurotech wireless range or need any further assistance, please contact your Regional Sales Manager.

Linear heat detection offers unparalleled cost-effectiveness and ease of installation compared to conventional heat detectors. Proline’s innovative solutions are designed to overcome installation challenges and provide early detection of fire or equipment overheating in commercial and industrial settings.
Proline offers two types of heat sensing cables: fixed temperature and analogue.
With six temperature ratings ranging from 68°C to 218°C, Proline Digital cables come in various outer jackets to suit different applications. Constructed with two twisted and tensioned tri-metallic conductors coated in a heat-sensitive polymer, these cables detect heat by melting the polymer at the rated temperature, causing the conductors to touch and send a signal to the fire alarm control panel. The damaged section of the cable is easily replaceable, and a Dual Zone Monitor Module (ZI-02) can pinpoint the alarm location along the cable.
Similar to Proline Digital, Proline EN Digital cables consist of twisted metal cores sheathed in temperature-sensitive polymers. These cables trigger an alarm when the polymers soften at a specific temperature, and they are designed to be low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) and UV resistant for indoor and outdoor use.
Activation temperatures include 68°C, 78°C and 88°C, and the EN-54 certified Digital Sensor Control Unit can monitor up to 2,000 metres across two zones of digital LHD cable.
The Proline EN Digital LHD cable is designed to work with the Proline EN Digital Sensor Control Unit Z1-02EN and Proline EN Digital End-of-Line Unit EOLU-EN
Offering pre-alarm and alarm functionalities, ProReact analogue heat sensing cables monitor temperature increases and are fully resettable. These cables can be programmed for an early warning pre-alarm in addition to the specified alarm temperature. A ProReact analogue controller and end-of-line unit are necessary for full monitoring of the cable for open and short circuits.
Proline’s solutions are versatile and can be applied in various settings, including:
With its reliability and effectiveness, Proline ensures early detection and protection against fire hazards and equipment overheating.
