Sikarin Hospital in Thailand secured by Bosch

Located in the Bang Na district in Bangkok is Sikarin hospital. First opened in 1993, it now has 3 buildings with 235 beds for inpatients and the capability to handle an average of 2,800 outpatients including the 24 hour emergency services per day.

Having a security system in hospitals is of critical importance to prevent common precautions against fire, attacks and vandalism as any other large facility. AheadAll was awarded the contract to design and install a comprehensive security solution in the newly constructed 14-storey Building 3 to provide additional medical services to high-end patients. AheadAll composed a security solution that is based on Bosch video surveillance systems, fire detection, evacuation voice alarm and access control systems which can be monitored centrally.

A Plena Voice Alarm System with 153 speakers was installed for the hospital public address announcement and background music (BGM) purpose. For the fire alarm system, a FPA 5000 Fire Alarm Control Panel with 336 units of the FCP-O320 Optical smoke detector were installed for ease of monitoring when smoke or fire are present in the hospital premise. The system alerts the hospital security officer the exact location of the fire so that he can handle the situation immediately.

To meet the needs of video surveillance, 59 units of Bosch FLEXIDOME IP indoor cameras and 26 units of IP Bullet cameras were installed in the hospital and along the perimeter of the building to provide full security surveillance to keep its patients and staffs safe. The whole system offers high flexibility in terms of project design that allows ease for future system expansion.

The reputation of Bosch gave Sikarin hospital the confidence in this project. In addition, the valuable training provided and AheadAll’s exceptional skill in project implementation & after-sales service emphasized the trust that the hospital had in Bosch.
