CNAPS-licensed operator
Fire detection before smoke, deployed and operated by MAGENGARD.
Thermal cameras measure temperature continuously and pick up hot spots at the incipient or smouldering combustion stage. Before smoke, before flame: immediate video verification, an alert within seconds with the exact location, and the response chain under way.
01 / How it works
01
Site temperature is measured continuously, point by point, indoors and outdoors. Alert thresholds are programmed to match the site and its activity.
02
AI analysis identifies the hot spot at the incipient or smouldering combustion stage, before smoke and before flame.
03
As soon as a critical threshold is reached, the thermal image and its exact location go for video verification, 24/7. False alarms are ruled out.
04
Multi-channel alerts within seconds: voice call, SMS, push notification, report to the remote monitoring station. Then the response chain: the site's managers, a guard, the emergency services if necessary.
02 / The range
A single chain of measurement, verification and alerting, from large outdoor perimeters to process areas. Our units, produced in batches as part of our industrial set-up, are prepared and configured by our teams before every deployment.

03 / Use cases
Fire watch covers the site and its edges, even when access to wooded areas is restricted.
Self-heating and fermentation in stockpiles are spotted before thermal runaway, day and night.
A hot spot on a high fire-load stock is flagged before flame, with its exact location.
Abnormal heating of modules and equipment is detected remotely, across many hectares.
Fodder, bedding and equipment stay under continuous thermal watch, where fire spreads fast.
Early fire detection covers the hours when nobody is on site, from smouldering to alert.
04 / High-risk season
Wildfire alert periods, prefectoral orders, access restriction windows for wooded areas: summer sets the rules for exposed sites and construction sites. When access is restricted, human presence stops. The risk does not.
PYROGARD keeps watch without exposing anyone: 24/7 thermal surveillance of the site and its edges, thresholds adjusted to site conditions, an immediate alert at the first hot spot. Wildfire protection for the site stays active throughout the restriction window.
Prepare for the season05 / The operated service
PYROGARD is not hardware sold on its own. It is an early fire detection service, operated end to end by a security professional.
Every alert is checked immediately by video verification at the APSAD P5 certified remote monitoring station, the French benchmark certification for alarm receiving centres, operating 24/7, which, according to the response plan, alerts the site's managers, dispatches the on-site or on-call guard and, if necessary, calls the emergency services. The whole service (supply, deployment, threshold configuration, maintenance, monitoring, removal) is delivered by MAGENGARD under its sole contractual responsibility and its CNAPS operating licence, with a single point of contact for the client.

07 / FAQ
No. PYROGARD is an early detection and video verification system. It complements the site's regulatory obligations and is no substitute for fire safety systems (SSI) or for the rescue and extinguishing resources required by the applicable regulations.
Yes. Thermal cameras measure temperature, not light: hot-spot detection is identical day and night. On PYROGARD TOWER, a 0.002 lux low-light colour sensor and 200 m infrared illumination provide visual verification at night. The equipment is built for outdoor use.
Through three successive filters: temperature thresholds programmed to match the site and its activity, AI analysis that qualifies the hot spot, then human video verification, 24/7, before the response chain is triggered.
A quotation within one working day. Delivery anywhere in France and fast commissioning by our teams: the PYROGARD TOWER is set down, configured and connected to the monitoring station on installation day; the PYROGARD CASE is set up in minutes.
Everything: supply, deployment, threshold configuration, maintenance, monitoring and removal at the end of the assignment. The whole service is delivered by MAGENGARD under its sole contractual responsibility, with a single point of contact for the client. Pricing on request.
That is MAGENGARD's hybrid fire setup: our SSIAP 1 qualified fire safety guards are on site as needed, with written and signed fire instructions, regular drills and written coordination procedures with the fire service. Thermal detection sees before people do; qualified people act where machines cannot.
