forede®'s ZDMS0.8 Series automatic tracking fire monitor is a smart, durable suppression solution crafted from hard anodized aluminium alloy-perfect for large-scale spaces like industrial warehouses, commercial malls, and high-ceiling facilities.
It packs intelligent capabilities: laser positioning indication, HD screen monitoring, and infrared/UV sensor detection (enabling fire targeting in ≤60 seconds). Users can pick straight stream/fog or straight stream-only nozzles, with electric control for jetting pattern switches; its waterproof electric driver and control unit ensure reliability in diverse conditions, paired with an optional 220V AC power supply.
The series offers two variants (both supporting automatic, control-box, and on-site manual control):
- ZDMS0.8/20S-W: 1200 LPM flow, 56m jetting radius, 50m max protection range
- ZDMS0.8/30S-W: 1800 LPM flow, 62m jetting radius, 55m max protection range
Shared specs include 8 bar working pressure, 360° horizontal rotation, -90° to +30° vertical travel, 80m monitoring radius, 8-15m mounting height, 2.5" BS flange inlet (other sizes/standards optional), RS485 communication, and low power use (1W for monitoring, 50W for detection).

Installation Instructions


1. What Does "Automatic Tracking" Mean for This Monitor?
Q: What is the function of the automatic tracking feature?
A: It uses infrared/UV sensors to detect fires, then automatically rotates 360° horizontally and adjusts vertically (-90° to +30°) to aim and spray water/fog. This hands-free response is ideal for unattended or large industrial spaces where rapid fire containment is critical.
2. What Is the Purpose of the Laser Positioning Indication?
Q: How does the laser positioning feature help with fire suppression?
A: The laser marks the exact spray target point, verifying the monitor is aimed correctly at the fire. It also assists with manual fine-tuning if needed, ensuring precise targeting in high-risk areas like storage yards or equipment zones.
3. How Do the Infrared/UV Sensors Detect Fires Accurately?
Q: What makes the infrared/UV sensor technology reliable for fire detection?
A: The UV sensor picks up flame-specific ultraviolet light, while the infrared sensor detects heat signatures. Together, they reduce false alarms (e.g., from bright lights or hot equipment) and confirm real fires quickly.
4. What Areas Does the 360° Rotation & -90° to +30° Vertical Range Cover?
Q: What targets can the monitor reach with its movement range?
A: The 360° horizontal rotation covers the entire surrounding area from one fixed mount. The -90° (downward) to +30° (upward) vertical range targets ground-level fires, low storage tanks, and mid-height equipment-versatile for industrial sites with hazards at varying heights.
5. How Do I Choose Between ZDMS0.8/20S-W (1200 LPM) and ZDMS0.8/30S-W (1800 LPM)?
Q: Which model is right for my site?
A: Match the model to your coverage needs:
- ZDMS0.8/20S-W (1200 LPM, 56m jetting radius): Ideal for smaller areas like warehouse bays or compact workshops.
- ZDMS0.8/30S-W (1800 LPM, 62m jetting radius): Better for larger zones like factory perimeters or storage yards.
6. Why Is the Mounting Height Specified as 8-15m?
Q: What happens if I mount the monitor outside the 8-15m range?
A: The 8-15m range optimizes the sensor's 80m monitoring radius while keeping the monitor out of immediate fire reach. Mounting
too low limits coverage, while mounting
too high reduces detection accuracy for low-level fires.
7. What Does "Targeting Time ≤60s" Mean for Fire Response?
Q: How does the ≤60s targeting time improve fire safety?
A: It's the maximum time from fire detection to the monitor aiming and spraying. This fast (≤1 minute) response helps contain small fires before they spread, which is critical for industrial or commercial spaces where delays can escalate risks.
8. How Do I Switch Between Automatic and Field Manual Control?
Q: Can I take manual control of the monitor if needed?
A: Yes-use the control box's mode selector: switch to "Automatic" for sensor-driven fire response, or "Field Manual" to manually adjust aim, flow, and jet pattern via the control unit.
9. What Is the Benefit of the Waterproof Electric Driver & Control Unit?
Q: Why are the electric driver and control unit waterproof?
A: The waterproof design ensures reliable performance in damp or wet environments (e.g., outdoor yards, rainy industrial sites). It prevents water damage to electrical components, maintaining consistent operation in harsh conditions.
10. What Routine Maintenance Does This Monitor Require?
Q: What regular checks are needed to keep the monitor functional?
A: Every 3-6 months:
- Clean the sensor lenses to maintain detection accuracy.
- Inspect waterproof seals for damage to protect internal components.
- Test the control box to confirm both automatic and manual functions work.
- Clear debris from the nozzle to ensure unobstructed water/fog flow.
