In case of fire

If a fire starts, press the alarm button, call 112 and evacuate according to the routine described in the section on evacuation on this page.

Most spaces in the Ångström laboratory are equipped with water sprinklers that are triggered locally by the heat of the fire. When a sprinkler is activated, the automatic alarm to the fire department is also triggered and the evacuation alarm is activated in affected houses.

Fire cell doors

All door parts facing corridors and stairwells are usually fire cell doors with magnetic holders and these must not be set up with wedges or other obstacles. It is of utmost importance that they can be closed in a fire situation. Doors with magnetic holders must always be closed with the door closing button.

Hand held fire extinguishers

Hand held fire extinguishers are located in every corridor in the Ångström laboratory. These fire extinguishers are also indicated on the evacuation boards in the corridor. Please memorize the location of them so that you can quickly retrieve one if needed.
