Elotec NL redefines fire safety
standards with evalink
With the 2G phase-out, Elotec could no longer rely on their dialer-based alert system. They needed a solution that met strict insurance standards, avoided the complexity of traditional monitoring centers, and operated seamlessly without disrupting daily workflows.
Finding the right fit with the evalink ecosystem
Elotec NL needed a simple, reliable way to notify clients about fire alarms without the expense and complexity of operating a full alarm center and, most importantly, without interfering with their clients’ daily work. Their search for a solution led to dual-protocol alarm transmitters, which required a costly SIA-DC 09 monitoring station, adding unnecessary layers of complexity and manual intervention.
The evalink ecosystem offered a better alternative. Its smart alarm management platform featured virtual receivers, auto-call integrations, and a simple workflow builder for sending instant SMS notifications. This eliminated the need for a traditional monitoring center, providing Elotec NL with an efficient and dependable system.
To complete the solution, evalink introduced the ipTNA4i and TNA Connect V2 transmitters—devices renowned for their reliability. Elotec NL tested these on fire alarms and external cooling system alerts, finding them quick to install, intuitive, and operational within minutes. The transmitters’ plug-and-play functionality saved significant setup time and reduced service trips.
With this proven reliability and streamlined process, Elotec NL made evalink’s TNA devices their default choice for all alarm installations, ensuring their clients receive timely, dependable notifications without any unnecessary complexity.
