Introduction

Kryptos is the ultimate 3D Fire & Gas Mapping software. Load your plant model, define the area you need to protect, and let Kryptos automatically determine the optimum number and location of detectors required to meet your coverage criteria. Visualise the coverage, optimise your detector layout, and generate a comprehensive client-ready report in your preferred language —all in a matter of minutes.
