Since the catastrophic fire at Grenfell Tower in the London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, the government launched an independent review of building and fire safety regulations.

One of the biggest priorities for any commercial building owner is to ensure that efficient fire safety controls are put in place. Fire safety and fire prevention must always be taken into consideration, whether you use the building for your own purposes, or sub-let it to other businesses.

Legislation for fire safety in the UK is undergoing a substantial change in 2025, with the introduction of new regulations and measures that affect building managers, facilities directors and safety professionals sector-wide.

For those without direct engineering or technical knowledge, the term ‘pressure transducer’ can sound quite overwhelming. But the truth is that pressure transducers are key components in many different pieces of machinery and tools that we take for granted.

Fire Sprinkler Close Up

Many leading institutions have come together in support of changing fire safety laws to recognise the benefits of sprinkler systems in new and existing buildings.

In commercial fluid control systems, preventing backflow is vital for preserving their integrity, safeguarding the hardware and equipment, and ensuring they function correctly and safely.

How Does a Pressure Transducer Work?

A pressure transducer works by measuring the pressure of liquids or gases and converting it into a proportional electrical signal.

Small businesses have undoubtedly had a challenging couple of years. But as the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic looks to be over, now is the time that small companies have started to look at their current position and take steps to improve themselves.

Residential fire sprinklers

Automatic sprinkler systems are used more than any other fire protection system. No less than 40 million sprinkler systems are fitted worldwide each year.

An air flow sensor measures the amount of air entering a system, typically to alert an electric controller should the flow rate dip below a specific predetermined level.

When it comes to commercial and industrial processes involving liquids, vapours or gases, the ability to accurately measure flow is vital. Without precise flow monitoring, the risk of major safety incidents rises, not to mention the fact that operators could also potentially see production prove ineffective and resources go to waste.

 As part of the adult skills budget, the IQ Level 2 Certificate in Fire Sprinkler Installation, developed by the British Automatic Fire Sprinkler Association (BAFSA), has been awarded government funding within England.
